Launching ScummVM

[paulwilco]

Hi everyone,

I have a problem with launching ScummVM from launchbox. I added the games and got launchbox to install ScummVM. All the games are listed in Launchbox but when i click to play any of them nothing happens. Literally nothing, no error dialogue or anything. ScummVm runs and plays games when launching it separately. The Emulator path is set correctly in the Launchbox setting as are the games.

Any help gratefully received!

Thanks,

Paul

Though it's a year old, this tutorial is still valid.  Maybe give it a shot and see if it helps.  If after following along with it, you're still having issues, report back.

Thanks for your reply. i have followed the video with no succsess.i dont have the games in the launchbox folder but they imported without a problem. Not sure if that has anything to do with it.

The game(s) should be pointing to the games' folder (vs. a file).  So check that.  (Edit game, Launching)

Then of course, the emulator is set to ScummVM.  (Emulation)

 

For the emulator, the default command-line parameters should be (or at least this is what mine's set at) -p %romfile% --auto-detect --fullscreen
