TonyWatto Posted September 13, 2015 Author Share Posted September 13, 2015 Is there any way to stop the info screen showing up when I load up a rom ? I've tried using -skip_gameinfo but had no luck ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 I haven't played with MAME through Retroarch very much. However I do know that with MAME directly, I've read that sadly you can't turn it off without literally recompiling MAME from the source code. :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bil Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Not sure if this will work, but try adding these lines to "retroarch-core-options.cfg" mame_hide_nagscreen = "enabled" mame_hide_infoscreen = "enabled" mame_hide_warnings = "enabled" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted September 13, 2015 Share Posted September 13, 2015 Curious to know if that works for you, @TonyWatto. Thanks @Bil. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Recolor2818 Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Very, very, very old versions of MAME allow you to skip the disclaimer, but I think you have to convert the roms to work on old versions. I'm still using a version of MAME that is probably 15 or more years old at this point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted September 14, 2015 Share Posted September 14, 2015 Hi folks. I don't use Retroarch so I can't comment about it. But if you are using Mame as an emulator in it's own right with LaunchBox you can disable the game info screen either by adding -skip_gameinfo as a LaunchBox Default Command Line parameter or by editing the Mame Configuration Settings file (mame.ini) to set skip_gameinfo to 1 The Roms copyright warning screen can't be bypassed since Mame 0.100 way back in 2005. But this box only pops up when a game is first run. The problem game screen can't be bypassed, and will always show for a game that has support issues in Mame. Personally these startup boxes don't bother me. They can be clicked through in no time at all. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Finally got round to trying it today, but it has no effect. It's not the end of the world hitting space a few times . At the moment I'm enjoying some classic Amiga action Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
