I have been using Emulaunch since it's 1.1 days, and initially had a few problems configuring the software, specifically with MacMame and my Zip files. However the developer has been a great help, with constant feedback and troubleshooting information.

A quick note on 'the' Zip issues:
1. Keep all your MacMame files in the original folder
2. Zip with your ‘archive’ option (if haven’t already done so) all the individual came folders
3. open apple+I - and select the new Zips to open with MacMame only (delete any old files)
4. Analyze your rom set from the option screen within MacMame- Open MacMame, Click on ‘Reports’ and ‘Analyze Romsets’ will be there follow and save.
5. Open Emulaunch and follow the simple preference options

There you go, works a treat!

I would highly recommend this software and hope other people find it as useful as I do, not to mention the fact that it’s free and cool. 1.3 is the best version yet!

PS: Would like an option to close the program from within the game selection screens.

Well, now I can get it to finally see (and launch) Genesis roms, but not the screenshots or box art - and I'm following the steps listed in the pdf.

Still won't launch MAME roms. Specified the folder and analysis report file, but does nothing when hitting space bar or return.

Frustrating.

EMUlaunch Troubleshooting ReportLooks nice, couldn't get it to work at all - Version: 1.2, 6/15/2006 01:30PM PST

I made the path to my Genesis roms just like it said to, but when I launch it it shows no games and says 'undefined' above the emu name (I specified the path in the preferences)

It can see my mame files, but the space bar is supposed to launch the selected file and it does nothing for me.
