Elhora Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 i'm sorry to necro this topic, but i'm completely lost with configuring American Laser Games in launchbox. I've got the "No Intro" package from Colpipes78 and i try to integrate it in my Launchbox configuration but nothing works. For Daphne Games like Dargon's Lair and so on i had no problem with the Launchbox integration, but for ALG, that's just a mess. I've followed step by step any of the post above, and whatever i do, i always end up with the error message and the Log file (provided here) doesn't help me much finding the problem It seems to me a path problem, but don't know what's wrong. Any help would be appreciated daphne_log.txt Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So it's trying to find Games\crimepatrol.bat".singe which is invalid. You can see it here: --Command line is: daphne.exe singe vldp -fullscreen_window -x 800 -y 600 -framefile singe/"R:\LAUNCHBOX\Emulators\American Laser Games\crimepatrol.bat"/"R:\LAUNCHBOX\Emulators\American Laser Games\crimepatrol.bat".txt -script singe/"R:\LAUNCHBOX\Emulators\American Laser Games\crimepatrol.bat"/cdrom-"R:\LAUNCHBOX\Emulators\American Laser Games\crimepatrol.bat".singe Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elhora Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 (edited) i can see that... but i guess it comes from the end of the command line provided in the first post. So i don't know what happens. Just to confirm, all the games runs fine when launched directly from Daphne, so the problem i have is really the launchbox integration daphne.exe singe vldp -fullscreen_window -ignore_aspect_ratio -x 800 -y 600 -framefile singe/%1/%1.txt -script singe/%1/%1.singe Edited April 13, 2021 by Elhora Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny T Posted April 13, 2021 Author Share Posted April 13, 2021 Yep, I just run a file called American Laser Games.bat and it has the following: daphne.exe singe vldp -fullscreen_window -ignore_aspect_ratio -x 800 -y 600 -framefile singe/%1/%1.txt -script singe/%1/%1.singe My launchbox set up looks like this: The inside of my crimepatrol folder (along with the path etc) looks like this: Does any of that help? I don't have a crimepatrol.bat file? I just have a crimepatrol.singe file? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Johnny T Posted April 13, 2021 Author Share Posted April 13, 2021 Ref the above post.... maybe you need to run at ".bat" file instead of .singe file if you have crimepatrol.bat inside your folder? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsigarinho Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 I have mine working 100% but i remember i changed something on .bat files. When i go back home i'll help you. Just tell me which exactly games you are trying to play. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Elhora Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 Well my configuration is : Launchbox\Emulators\American Laser Games In this root folder i have a ".bat" file for each games (10 games) that are all working fine when i launch them outside Launchbox (Example for Mad Dog i have maddog.bat, For Crime Patrol, i have crimepatrol.bat, etc....) Those scripts are all like that : @daphne.exe singe vldp -fullscreen -noserversend -framefile singe/maddog/frame_maddog_cdrom.txt -script singe/maddog/maddog_cdrom.singe I also have a "singe" folder which contains each game (each folders and scripts are named accordingly) .\singe\maddog .\singe\crimepatrol .\singe\drugwars etc...... Right now if i wanna play an American Laser Game, i just need to launch the .bat script of the game and everything works fine. Example : Launchbox\Emulators\American Laser Games\maddog.bat will launch Mad Dog without problems. Launchbox\Emulators\American Laser Games\drugwars.bat will launch Drug wars without problems. etc. The main problem i have is that when i add the emulator in launchbox according to the screen capture, it's not working and i dont know how to tell Launchbox to launch the .bat script that works outside Launchbox.

Tsigarinho Posted April 13, 2021 Share Posted April 13, 2021 The emulator for American Laser Games must be a .bat file. 1) For Example name it ''American Laser Games'' and that .bat file must have those lines daphne.exe singe vldp -fullscreen -x 800 -y 600 -framefile singe/%1/%1.txt -script singe/%1/cdrom-%1.singe 2) You'll notice that you have also .bat files inside that folder, each for every game. Edit it and type the same as mine (Example for crime patrol) C:\Users\HERE CHOOSE YOUR USER\LaunchBox\Emulators\Daphne_Singe\daphne.exe singe vldp -x 800 -y 600 -fullscreen -framefile singe/crimepatrol/frame-crimepatrol-cdrom.txt -script singe/crimepatrol/cdrom-crimepatrol.singe As you can see you must type the exact path of where your .bat file is. 3) Inside singe folder you must have the games. Tell me if you do it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tutor Posted June 5, 2021 Share Posted June 5, 2021 (edited) Hi, you can also install the batrunner.exe originally used for ScummVM Launcher: and use the initial bat files for the games.

It's probably just a path error somewhere... ? I've not messed with American Laser Games in years (whenever this thread was created) but I remember seeing quite a few of those error messages before I finally cracked it. *Edit* - the first trick is to get them working with their own launcher before you start trying to get Launchbox to run them.
