I was just looking at this, its not easy

I shortened the Nulldc no trace exe to nulldcnt.exe


I:\nullDC 1.0.4\nullDC 1.0.4>nulldcnt.exe -config nullDC:Emulator.Autostart=1 -config ImageReader:LoadDefaultImage=1 -config imagereader:Defaultimage="I:\nulldc 1.0.4\nulldc 1.0.4\fasts.cdi

That rather long winded command line will load and run a game, all you have to do is set the file location..

You also need to set the joystick and any configs wanted.

no, i try, but in gamebase emulators are in a drawer and games in other..
I could make like MSX Laser game..

The games works, but i have to choose manually the iso game..

With that command line I posted it sets the default ISO and loads and runs it all in one, you do not have to do anything manually?

Surely the gamefile variable could be used to fill that command line the right way?

I have not touched a script in a long time, maybe someone with a more script aware head could answer this..

I can not test this at the moment.
But the script should look like this, if the command line works.

Code: Select all

Add_CLP( -config nullDC:Emulator.Autostart=1 -config ImageReader:LoadDefaultImage=1 -config imagereader:Defaultimage="%gamepathfile%")
Run_Emulator()

@mad, Paul Irvine
with with script the emulator is not able to init Image Reader and there is an error.
i saw that if i change in .cfg to "1" as value, nulldc crashes

edit

interesting
with this script it works only crazy taxi, instead with other games don't init image reader..

ok, now i resolved
the problems was the name with space.
example: Daytona USA.cdi the mad script don't work, but DaytonaUSA.cdi it works.

Thank to .MAD and Paul Irvine :)
