Hi Daniel

Nice to have you looking at our community.
Maybe you could help. How could I set the emulator for PSX to run a CD in the drive? I mean I have all my Games on HDD but when I lend a CD from a friend I will be able to lauch it direvtly from the drive. How could this be done.
A longer time ago you told me that you changed your frontend. Maybe this soft can do it? What´s the name of the software?
I could launch it as an external programm.

Please help.

is there a way to or does it allow the passing of command line arguments?

Chreekar · 2006-11-26, 18:42

include the arguments in the executable path, ie print:
C:\zsnes.exe -arg in the top most box to use that argument

Thanks for the support waeberd!

I have posted an updated version now that includes an option to not close MP when a game launches. Otherwise, everything is the same. My next goal is to implement a database to be able to add (and download?) box art and game details. I'll just have to learn some XML first...

Chreekar,

I noticed when using the xml form my 4:3 skin in my 16:9 skin that it seemed to be calling the background twice. Once (I'm guessing) with commonwindow.xml and then a second time straight after where you have called the background.png and set the size. Using the 4:3 xml of course gave me a 16:9 bg with a smaller 4:3 bg on top. I simply deleted the background.png line and it was fine.

You're absolutely right. I've fixed it and will be including the new skin file in the next version.
