Gamepark GP

Hi,

Does any one know the correct command lines to start GamePark GP32 games in GeePee32?

 

Thx

Do you mean like:

Commandline options 

/GXB=<filename>	Loads GXB file
/FXE=<filename>	Loads FXE file
/SMC=<filename>	Loads SMC file
/RUN	Starts emulation

You can not use FXE and GXB at the same time

Hey Joe,

Thx for your reply but I'm probably doing it all wrong here.  

All of my roms are of the SMC type so I tried putting in

/SMC=<filename> /RUN in the Standard Command-Line parameters:

It doesn't work ?. Thanks ?

I've only kind of looked around for how to change where LB puts the "FULL\PATH\TO\ROM\FILE", but appears it only will put it at the end of the string. Which for most emu's that works.

I think this will work...  For your emulator settings, delete all your "Standard Command-Line Parameters" you have shown.  Click OK.

Edit one of your games. Click the Emulation tab. Check 'Use an Emulator' and select the GP32 emulator (if not already).  Check the box "Use Custom Command-Line Parameters" and enter in:

/smc=%file% /run

I'm pretty sure it'll pass the rom filename into %file%.  If that works, YAY!!!  Now it's a matter of putting that in for all the games.  I don't think the bulk edit give the option to change the CCL. So you'll need to do that for each one.  If this method doesn't work there's always plan B.

 

"Plan B":  Create a new emulator pointing to an AHK script.  You can't just add it to the "AutoHotKey Script" tab of your existing GP32 as far as I know. So again, New Emulator.  The script will be something like:

Run, "D:\emulators\Geepee32\geepee32.exe" /smc="%1%" /run

Add a new emulator.  Have the "Emulator Application Path:" point to the AHK script file. Give it a name.  In "Associated Platforms" tab select your GP32 platform.  Save it.  Now have (or make sure) your games point to this 'new' emulator.

Hey Joe,

Plan A didn't work.

Plan B seems complicated (to me ). I'll figure out how to make an Auto hotkey script and do the things you suggested and I'll give feedback on plan B.

Thx!?

Joe,

Sorry to be a pain in the ass here ?‍♂️

I created the AHK (see below). Also created a new emulator and put the AHK file in the "Emulator Application Path". I get these two errors.

 

script.ahk

1st off, no worries.    2nd, I will always claim I only know enough to be dangerous. (my disclaimer)

The 1st error is showing [capital] SMC where the script is in lowercase.  Just making sure you don't have command line parameters lurking anywhere else. (in the emulator setup or in the game Emulator [tab] CCL)

The script file looks good. It looks like geepee32 may be getting thrown off by the spaces in the path\file name.smc.  ideally it probably should look like /smc="M:\ROMS\......", with the quotes around the path and file name to encompass the spaces too. I'm just taking a shot here... try double double quotes in the ahk.    /SMC=""%1%""

...or (shot 2)... quote the whole thing...

Run, ""C:\Users\Eigenaar\LaunchBox\Emulators\GeePee32\geepee32.exe" /smc="%1%" /run"

I don't know geepee32 (or GP32 for that matter) but maybe check using a batch file to see if these parameters will even work.

"C:\Users\Eigenaar\LaunchBox\Emulators\GeePee32\geepee32.exe" /smc="M:\ROMS\GAMEPARK GP32\DOOLY SOCCER 2002 (KOREA).SMC" /run

I too am interested in getting this working.  i have it working using mame, but the games run choppy.

[tallpr24]

big thanks to nearvanaman  for finding this for me.
