Using Daemon Tools through Launchbox...

Sounds like the game may not be setup correctly in LaunchBox.

1. Open LaunchBox.

2. Navigate to you game, right click and select Edit.

3. Double check the Launcher tab and ensure the ROM file is pointing to your .cue file (NOT bin). Your batch file should also be pointing to the .cue file.

4. On the Emulation tab, Click Edit under your SSF emulator, and check that it is pointing to the correct .bat file.

Correct, you have to change the game= from your directory where Alien is to %game%. This way you have one batch file in the SSF directory and one Emulator in LB using the .bat file. Be sure this is checked as the default emulator for Sega Saturn and now all your games should work.

@echo off 
set game=%1%

so like this?

 @echo off
set game=%1%   
set game="D:\Roms\Sega Saturn\Roms\Alien Trilogy (USA).Bin"
set daemon="C:\Program Files\Daemon Tools Ultra\DTultra.exe"
set emu="D:\Emulators\SSF_011_alpha_R5\SSF.exe"
 
%daemon% -mount F, %game%
start /wait "" %emu%

%daemon% -unmount F

In the first pic, you are pointing to a batch file called Alien Trilogy.bat. My suggestion is to create a single batch file called SSF.bat and place that in the SSF directory. It should look like this:

@echo off 
set game=%1% 
set daemon="C:\Program Files\DAEMON Tools Ultra\DTAgent.exe" 
set emu="D:\Gaming\Emulators\Saturn player - SSF 111AR5\SSF_011_alpha_R5\SSF.exe"   <---you have a different file structure to edit here
 
%daemon% -mount F, %game% 
start /wait "" %emu% 

%daemon% -unmount F

In the second pic, you are pointing to the batch file in the Launcher tab, you should be pointing to the .cue file of the game.

Lol, I will stick with Mednafen I have much better luck with it but I do understand that lower end systems need SSF so it's good to have options available.

Looking at the new bat file it looks like all that changed is the line:


%daemon% -mount 0, %game%

to

%daemon% -mount F, %game% 

and the last line

%daemon% -unmount 0

to

%daemon% -unmount F

That's right Monkus, just have to specify a drive letter. The drive that is created with quickmount will differ depending upon how many other drives are attached. Again, you could always set it to a letter at the end of the alphabet if you have a system with lots of external/USB drives that get plugged in and moved around.
