the spectrum driver that went up on Dec 24 is still for mame version 0.177, is that right? |

and is it right that we don’t currently have any MSX1 or MSX2 computers? I am looking but there are hundreds of drivers, a little hard to eyeball it |

SketchCow: is the speak and spell working in jsmess yet? |

i sort of lost track as to what the last version of MAME which properly builds as jsmess is |

|
bai |
speak and spell worked a couple years ago, dunno if it still does |

We have a round of improvements to do. |

I assume you know that your CFG files are not currently loading |
|

I managed to overcome it on my installation by adding the extraArgs "-cfg_directory","emulator" |
|

|
bennett_ |
but the archive.org custom cfgs are being dumped by MAME as it stands |

Do not assume this |

No worries - you can fix it just by amending your HTML template so that it adds: MAMELoader.extraArgs(["-cfg_directory","emulator"]))) |

an easy way to check if it’s working is to go to Atari 5200 Kaboom: https://archive.org/details/KABOOM_1983_Activision |

your CFG file calls for start to be mapped to S whereas the default is 1 |
|
15:42
🔗
|
bennett__ |
if you can start the game by pressing 1, probably it’s not loading the CFG file (even though the JS filesystem is finding and mounting the file) |
|
15:43
🔗
|
bennett__ |
the reason this happens is that MAME wants the CFG files to be in /cfg by default, unless you specify a different directory, but the mountFile call is loading everything into the root folder |
|
16:00
🔗
|
bennett__ |
one important additional gotcha - MAME will also silently bail on a CFG file if you try to map controls for peripherals that aren’t currently mounted. So you need to make sure you generate your CFG with the same input devices attached as you plan to use in your loader template |

Sounds like db48x added a bug |

I don’t think IA was ever loading the CFGs |

|
bai |
thought it used to check in about 10 different places for configs, I remember debugging this and having to step through a bunch of checks for weird paths |
|
18:20
🔗
|
bai |
but I think those were for configs included inside the .zip, not command-line specified ones |
