2die4 Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Hi guys, I'm at my wits end with getting MAME64UI to run via Launchbox. I've installed MAME64Ui and when I double click on it via file explorer it works fine. Have configured it for Launchbox with the roms pointing to the correct directory and the MAME app pointed to the right place too. When I click on any rom I get a fatal error with files missing. Not sure what I am doing wrong here as the roms are not missing and as said when I use MAME64Ui on it's own there are no problems. Help!

Lordmonkus Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 Move your mame.ini file from your mame\ini folder to the mame folder where your mame executable is. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted August 15, 2018 Share Posted August 15, 2018 No problem. I wish I had an explanation for why this is necessary and why Mame won't read the mame.ini file from the \ini folder when launched using the command via LB. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
frazzz Posted August 16, 2018 Share Posted August 16, 2018 i have a similar issue, MAME loads the games fine through Launchbox but none of the my preferences are saved (video options/filters/audio settings etc). when i run the games through the MAME UI it works, and it says all the settings are applied & saved. any ideas?
