You are using remote paths to call Demul Code: \\STORM\\programs\\Apps\\SEGA Dreamcast\\4 Wheel Thunder\\4 Wheel Thunder v1.002 (E)[!].chd Have you tried placing you CHDs in a local directory? I think the problem is that Demul cannot access files in remote filesystems: RE: Advanced Emulator Launcher - Multi-emulator frontend for Kodi - Wintermute0110 - 2020-01-27 (2020-01-27, 05:39)Jachin99 Wrote: Are there any known methods for launching .url files via AEL?

Let me think about how to solve this issue. I will notify when a patch is ready.
RE: Advanced Emulator Launcher - Multi-emulator frontend for Kodi - myghalloween - 2020-01-27 Yeah ! Very nice ! I'm waiting for. Also, It would be practical, for emulators which do not have shortcut to close, to insert an additional field in the launcher to select a key which would close the running process RE: Advanced Emulator Launcher - Multi-emulator frontend for Kodi - Jachin99 - 2020-01-28 (2020-01-27, 08:11)Wintermute0110 Wrote:That gets me close but still doesn't quite work right. When I run the start command with a steam streaming url, which always start with Steam://, another command window opens but the game doesn't launch. When I try running something like, "explorer Steam://rungameid/61000" it doesn't work, and when I run the command "explorer http://steam://rungameid/61000" a default browser window opens with the address I passed minus a semicolon so the address in the browser window isn't correct. When I just type the url from my shortcut into a browser then the game opens normally.(2020-01-27, 05:39)Jachin99 Wrote: Are there any known methods for launching .url files via AEL?

These .url shortcuts open and stream the games correctly in windows explorer. So far I have tried following the instructions for launching .lnk files but changed the extension to .url for rom scanning. The only way I have been able to get the game to launch via the command line is to change directories to the location of the shortcut, an then type its name. If I could get AEL to launch the shortcut from the directory its in instead of using the start command then I think it will work. I'll keep looking at what options are available in AEL and see if I can come up with something. RE: Advanced Emulator Launcher - Multi-emulator frontend for Kodi - eirrocmh - 2020-02-03 Is it possible to add multi Path support to this Add-On? For example, I have a dedicated hard drive for all my roms and it is full now, so i bought a new hard drive to continue my rom collection onto, but it seems i'm unable to add roms to the add-on from the new drive because it only supports one path. I tried putting shortcuts of my new roms into many of the launcher's folders, but shortcuts are not read... am i missing something, any way around this limitation? Thanks in advance!

I tried putting shortcuts of my new roms into many of the launcher's folders, but shortcuts are not read... am i missing something, any way around this limitation? Thanks in advance! I just added an option named "Extra ROMs folder" which is basically an additional ROM path. The extra ROM folder is intended for translations and ROMs hacks and won't be audited. If you are not going to use the ROM audit feature just use the extra ROM path like you use the standard ROM path. Shortcuts of ROMs won't work. Note that AEL just invokes the emulator and pass the ROM path as an argument. Emulators (launched apps) do not understand shortcuts and hence you will get an error like "Unknown ROM" or similar. Regarding the last error you get: I need a full debug log to diagnose the problem. You have instructions on the first post about how to generate it. RE: Advanced Emulator Launcher - Multi-emulator frontend for Kodi - Jachin99 - 2020-02-06 Wintermute, how would I format my command line arguments for a PC games launcher so that AEL changes directory to a given folder, and then launches my .url shortcuts? thanks.

RE: Advanced Emulator Launcher - Multi-emulator frontend for Kodi - Jachin99 - 2020-02-07 About the steam shortcuts I'm having trouble with. The simplest way to launch them via the command line seems to be just typing I the full path to the file. Is there a way I can format my command line arguments to only pass the path of my scanned roms to AEL? I tried using "path" for my arguments so far but I haven't had any luck. |
