[RESOLVED] Zinc not working anymore


Rochabian

Recommended Posts

Hi!

I was using Zinc since a while but nowadays it seems to be broken

In the setup wizard, i'v enabled Zinc but it doesn't seems to launch correctly.

When i launch for example Street Fighter EX 2 +, the script is :

@ECHO OFF

chcp 65001

D:

CD "D:\Emulators\Zinc"

mame.exe sfexp2 -rompath D:\Emulators\MAME\roms

It doesn't launch Zinc at all!

I've set up Zinc in the config Wizard like this :

Zinc path : D:\Emulators\Zinc

Zinc EXE : zinc.exe

Zinc options : -renderer=ogl_renderer.znc --controller=controller.znc

It was working with those settings before (has been set one year ago and working), is the Zinc support broken ?

Thanks

TBH I loathe ZiNc and haven't used it in a loooong time... I wouldn't be surprised if that were true. However unless mame is in that working directory it shouldn't work that way. I also find it odd that your usual mame variables aren't being passed either.

I thought maybe it was a bug that was fixed recently but since you opted to not post a log I can't be sure. Please try downloading and re-installing GameEx from the web site.

Just out of curiosity, why use it? MAME is better than adequate nowadays.

Thanks for your reply Adultery

Attached are my Gameex.in and log.txt as requested.

I just have tried SFEX2P within MAME and for me software rendering in MAME is not as good a OpenGL render in Zinc

That's why i've used it. Whenever Zinc is an old emulator, it renders better 3D games (for me) than MAME

GameEx.ini

No worries, I was just curious. :)

Yeah I'm betting its the bug I just fixed for QuickLaunch. Please download the latest version 1.1.1 or re-download the GameEx exe from GameEx.com ... This was fixed with a silent update.

PS: It looks like its working to me anyways...

00:40:01.4 29/03/2015: Running: cmd.exe /c D: D:\Emulators\Zinc\zinc.exe 10 --roms-directory=D:\Emulators\MAME\roms --renderer=ogl_renderer.znc --controller=controller.znc --use-controller-cfg-file=controller.cfg

You should still download the latest version though. ;)
