Working Emulator List (Command lines)

[SpyhunterUK]

I did state in one of my threads that I would upload all my working command lines to help others as well as some suggestions/queries on some others. I now have 32 emulators working on my 2Ghz PC, only running emulators via GameEx. Strictly an Arcade Cab

So here are the emulators and command lines I am using to get them working. I have two requirements for me to add the emulator to my Cabinet, if these two points are not met then they fall off my list (I gave up trying to get every Console/Emulator working some time ago)

The two points are:

1.) Emulator must autorun the rom in fullscreen

2.) and the controls must be configurable to my XArcade Tank joystick.

To add all my Emu's are saved under C:\Games (command line shows this).

Atari 2600 Stella.exe -video gl -gl_fsmax 1 -fullscreen 1 "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Atari 7800 EMU7800.Win.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Atari Jaguar PTLoader.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Atari Lynx mednafen.exe -fs 1 -lynx.special hq2x -lynx.videoip 1 -lynx.stretch 1 "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"

ScummVM scummvm.exe --fullscreen --joystick -p "C:\Games\ScummVM\roms\[ROM]" [ROM]
Sega Dreamcast chankast_launch.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Sega Game Gear Fusion.exe -fullscreen "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Sega Master System Fusion.exe -fullscreen "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Sega Megadrive Fusion.exe -fullscreen "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Sega Saturn yabause.exe "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Sega SG1000 Fusion.exe -fullscreen "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Sony PSX psxfin.exe -f "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"
Spectrum fuse.exe -full-screen "[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]" (***WIP)
Vectrex ParaJVE_console.exe -GAME="[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]" -fullscreen=TRUE -menu=OFF

I am having issues/requests with the following above emulators though:

Laserdisc Need Panel images per game
Commodore 64 Swap Ports (Alt+J) - Cannot Set Button?
Commodore Amiga Need to set up 2 Player games keys
Philips CDi Need to set Fullsvcreen (Stretch) by default
Sinclair ZX Spectrum Cannot set Keys - WIP***

And these are the emulators I gave up trying to get working to my spec;

Amstrad CPC Exit doesn't close down Application (even though set in GameEx)
Apple 2 Not Fullscreen (F5) Tried -f -d <rom>
Acorn BBC Micro Doesn't Autorun / Cannot set Keys
Sony PSP MSVCP120.dll issue (Visual Studio bug)
Sony PS2 MSVCP120.dll issue (Visual Studio bug)

Amstrad CPC although exits, doesn't close down the actual application (still runs in background) WinApe issue maybe?

PSP/PS2 requires Visual Studio install which breaks my MAME gaming (see other thread) Otherwise these would work fine, apart from XArcade Joystick doesn't have enough buttons

Any suggestions/help/comments would be great!!!

Thanks for the share! I am sure that there are a few members that will find this useful!

Now, regarding the emulator(s) that will not close, are you using anything in the "launch after" section of the Advanced Emulator setup? You could run a command line option such as TASKKILL /IM winape.exe /F (TSKILL is the command line if using XP).

[SpyhunterUK]

ok thanks, i will try that and let you know.

Also, try adding the exe name (without the ".exe") to "watched process" in the "advanced emulator config". (Open with notepad and save as .ini) .That will make GameEx stall untill the application is closed before regaining focus.

Fantastic list. This is gonna be a goldmine for 1st-time setter-upperers!

Mysterious bug on the Sony systems, though...

It would be pretty cool to cross reference this list with fRequEnCy's list of suggested command lines. It also might be a handy dandy enhancement to utilize the table format seen in fReq's list here as well (among other things it's really nice that the emulators are linked from the list itself).

[GimmeClassics]

Thanks Spyhunter ! I'll definitely bookmark this thread

[fRequEnCy]

What emulators you trying for those emulators that are not working? Maybe I can be of service. For Sony emulators have you downloaded the "Visual C++ 2013 redist"?

Now that I'm back i'll be doing some updating and uploading of files to bring things up-to-date.

Thanks in advance Frequency

Great list, and as null pointed out, together with freq's list there are lots of bases covered.

Looking forward to the update freq

Always glad to help others. That's what the forums are for

On another note my issue with Sony / VC Redist is in another thread -
