NagakiriHidechi Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 Is there an additional parameter needed to launch cartridge roms in MAME? The GP32 roms load, but the Supervision and Game.Com roms don't (they work when launched from MAME, though). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted December 5, 2020 Share Posted December 5, 2020 For Tiger try: gamecom -cart1 For Watara I am not sure. I do not emulate that system. Doing a search the svision -cart you have seems to be correct. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro_Rage Posted December 7, 2020 Share Posted December 7, 2020 Just to add on to Retro808s response, to find out what the correct parameters to use in MAME are, either look in the hash directory for that romset xml or (this is what I use) go to progettoemma.net. From there just search for anything and then expand media switches. It will give you the romset name and the parameter to put into LaunchBox.

Ciro Alfredo Consentino Posted August 16, 2021 Share Posted August 16, 2021 (edited) To run a Watara SuperVision, you need the gamename.zip file for the game and, of course, a MAME machine set. There a 5 machine sets to choose from. mame.exe svision -cart1 gamename svision is the machine name. -cart1 is safer than just "-cart", and it works for all machines, even if there is only one cartridge slot. If you open mamedir\hash\svision.xml, look for a supported="no" entry. All games with this tag are not yet supported by MAME, even if listed in the .xml file. Same rules apply to game.com (hash\gamecom.xml). Edited August 17, 2021 by Ciro Alfredo Consentino Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerSchlachter Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 Hi, I made a mistake in my last Launchbox setup, now everything is great again. The platform Watara Supervision worked for me before, now I can no longer import the games from the svision folder, it does not show me to import. What could be the reason?

(I think this is how it works) If you select MAME as your emulator, it'll look for MAME Arcade machines. Watara Supervision is a Software List System. So by default it [MAME] won't 'find it'. Since your roms appear to be unzipped and have proper game Titles... assuming you plan to use MAME as your emulator... when importing, select an emulator other than MAME (probably any other emulator). They should then all show up. Be sure "Force Using MAME metadata" is un-checked (again, it only looks for Arcade machines). Once all imported, select all games in that platform, right click 1 of them and click Edit. Select the "Field" for Emulator and set the "Value" to MAME. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DerSchlachter Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 (edited) Sorry for double Post, now everything works like a charm, for those who come up via google, my Emulator Settings for Watara Supervision TV Edition and Handheld Edition (2 Platforms) . I imported the roms twice (force duplicate import). Maybe it would help Edited August 17, 2021 by DerSchlachter Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted August 17, 2021 Share Posted August 17, 2021 @Ciro Alfredo Consentino Welcome to the LaunchBox forums Ciro. It's a pleasure to see you here. I was an EmuLoader user long before I found LaunchBox and I still use it today - an excellent product indeed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
