link182 Posted February 11 Share Posted February 11 Hi everyone, I wanted to know if anyone has the command line to start games with mame or mess of the jupiter ace. Thank you all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 LaunchBox Default Command Line Parameters jupace -ram 32K See the jupace_cass and jupace_snap xml files in MAME's hash folder concerning any usage stuff needed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
link182 Posted February 12 Author Share Posted February 12 Hello and thanks again also for the rest I tried but I failed, I load the page in black telling me operation not supported I tried with rom ace and tap but nothing What do you mean by 32K -ram? When the black screen starts, I write load and send, what am I doing wrong? I tried to read in the hash folder but I don't understand much about it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted February 12 Share Posted February 12 What do your Jupiter Ace games look like? Have they come as softlist folders such as jupace_cass and jupace_snap Also, in your MAME setup in LaunchBox do you have the "Remove file extension and folder path" option on or off?

link182 Posted February 14 Author Share Posted February 14 Hello thank you again for your interest and sorry if I write to you only now, due to work, "Remove the file extension and folder path" is disabled. The roms are in the jupace folder in the file ROM folder ace I leave you a photo attached. When I start a game a black screen comes out with a white dot at the bottom, writing load the writing appears at the top but nothing starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 I can't tell much from your picture. Do your games each come as a zip with the file inside having a .tap extension, or are they like the posted picture where games have the .ace extension?

link182 Posted February 14 Author Share Posted February 14 Each file is located in its own folder and is in the Ace extension Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted February 14 Share Posted February 14 Leave the "Remove file extension and folder path" and "Remove quotes" tickboxes empty. Use the LaunchBox Default Command Line Parameters jupace -ram 32K -dump The -ram 32K parameter is required, otherwise you'll get an unsupported operation error when a game tries to load.

link182 Posted February 15 Author Share Posted February 15 Thank you you helped me to add an important piece to the never collection, after all the help if you ever find yourself in Italy I will gladly offer you a dinner, I still take advantage of your knowledge to ask you if you also have the command line of the Exidy Sorcerer, and if you managed to add the saw triforce through dolphin 5.0. for now I only start F-zero and I don't understand why. You were really kind to answer me I wish you all the best Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted February 15 Share Posted February 15 Glad to hear that you got your Jupiter Ace games working. What format are your Exidy Sorcerer games in? Are they bin or snp or wav? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
link182 Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 tape Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 So did you download a software list folder called sorcerer_cass which has the games in zips such as galax.zip? And does the file inside each zip have the .wav extension? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
link182 Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 I have both wave and tape files Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
spycat Posted February 16 Share Posted February 16 This works for wav format, so might/might not work with tap stuff. Some of the tape games are run from the Sorcerer's Monitor screen, and others need to be run from the Sorcerer's Basic screen. The sorcerer_cass xml file in MAME's hash folder explains all this. Examples: galax.zip loads from the Monitor, so the parameters are sorcerer -cass1 When the Monitor screen opens, type LOG and press Return. The tape will play and when finished the game should open. break.zip requires the Basic screen and the parameters are sorcerer -cart basicpac -cass1 At the Basic prompt, type CLOAD and press Return. The tape will play and when finished type RUN to play the game. I'm off to sleep now, but I'll be around later if you need more help.

link182 Posted February 16 Author Share Posted February 16 hello sorry if I ask you but I don't know who else to ask, I have the Eka2l1 emulator working but I've been trying for 5/6 hours, following various guides, to import it into Launchbox would you give me some tips?

spycat Posted February 17 Share Posted February 17 (edited) I've never heard of the Eka2L1 until now and have no idea how it could be set up in LaunchBox. Sorry. You might be better off starting a thread about this and that way might get help. You could try searching for Eka2L1 in the forums searchbox and see what turns up.

You don't necessarily "import" emulators. You simply add them. Tools - Manage - Emulators - Add new emulator When adding a new emulator, also add the appropriate Command-line Parameters. For the one in question, you can find info on their Wiki. Using the emulator · EKA2L1/EKA2L1 Wiki · GitHub Hint: Quote Use --help if you want to interact through command lines and need list of commands.

link182 Posted February 18 Author Share Posted February 18 Hi thank you for the answer I think I explained myself badly or I didn't understand what you wanted to tell me. The emulator works and the games start smoothly outside launchbox I would like to know the procedure to import them and have them read by eka2l1 since Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
