SpinalBlood Posted August 25, 2007 Share Posted August 25, 2007 I just downloaded the latest stable build (0.118) and when a game is launched the window is stuck in the "press ok" screen. I switched back to the mame 0.117 folder and the screen saver started to work again skipping the information popups. Again when i change back to the 0.118, it isn't skipping anymore. Each test was done in a new fresh folder. Have maybe some changes in the UI since 0.117u1 "changed the skipping system?".In the setting I have of course the -skip_gameinfo command, but I think it's skipping the rominfo window only, not the disclaimer. If i remember well the skip_disclaimer command has been recenty removed but the screensaver was able in any case to bypass that until this last version...Can someone test? Please help and forgive for a bad english Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Please help and forgive for a bad englishAre you using the latest GameEx version? Works fine for me with skip_gameinfo (which is now enabled by default on new GameEx install)Only time it wont work, is when MAME does not emulatoe the game 100% or your ROM/sCHD's are bad.What version of GameEx are you running? There were enhancments relating to this issue.Edit: There were UI changes in 0.118 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The screensaver won't bypass the disclaimers in MAME 0.118 or above, due to changes in MAME.I may do an update to it soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
