cmid21 Posted January 7 Posted January 7 Hello, I am having an issue that is probably an easy fix, but I am just not figuring it out. I have previously downloaded and have been using Mame .262 without issue for a while now. I just decided to get the games that require CHD to work. Let's use NFL Blitz for example. I have the Blitz rom in Mame.262>roms. [Mame.262>roms>blitz.zip] Downloaded the CHD for Blitz. Created a folder in Mame.262>roms named "blitz." [Mame.262>roms>blitz>blitz.chd] The game works great directly through Mame. When I try to play through BigBox, it crashes prior to the game loading up. Thanks for any help! Quote

Since you have your ROMs and CHDs located in the /roms/ folder under your MAME installation: In LaunchBox, Edit your MAME emulator. In the Default Command-line Parameters does it have -rompath %romlocation%? If so, remove it. 1 Quote

I'm not the most tech savvy, where would I find the Default Command-line Parameters? Mame.ini? If it is the Mame.ini, the file shows: Core Search Path Options rompath roms Edited January 7 by cmid21 Quote

No. "In LaunchBox, Edit your MAME emulator. " aka: Start LaunchBox Click Tools < Manage < Emulators In the list of emulators you have installed in LaunchBox, select MAME (or whatever you have it named) and click Edit This will bring up the Edit Emulator window About halfway down, it will show you the Default Command-line Parameters used to when launching that emulator.
