Recent Verisons of Mame Recording problems

after I put dkong3 for both of them? Should It Load the game?

Nothing happens ..

This 'improved' Record.bat file is great (I added -video ddraw and -window)
To make it foolproof, maybe give user a written feedback if the game/rom is not complete..: I had an incorrect rom for dkong3 and the new Record.bat will just blink black and close quickly //"What happend?"// c",)

Another reason why you should run it from a command prompt, otherwise you miss out what can be rather useful information.

Can you see I am trying to figure it out .

I think I figured it out .. How do I play back Inps now? I did a test game of Raiden 2

[mahlemiut]

playback.bat works exactly the same as record.bat does (expect that it plays back the INP, instead of recording one obviously )

[DaLar]

I changed of few words in the 'improved' Record.bat and re-named it PlaybackPrompt.bat

Good to see/hear.

You could add a new line at the bottom of the file which reads:

pause

That will stop the black window closing so you can see the information from MAME.

Oh, I also discovered that CTRL+C doesn't stop the batch file like it says it should. Mea culpa.
