I don't know about anyone else but i think you should have a text file called startup_commands.txt or something?, so you can use the command lines that are in the mame readme' for exmaple "-skip_gameinfo" that would skip you having to type OK that you see when you run a game for the first time ...

If i use mame32 instead of mame then it works ok so i guess it must need a cfg file or something, i will post there, thx.

Hi, when i press F12 instead of the program saving a snapshot of the game in the snaps folder it makes a new folder with the name of the game i am playing and saves the snapshot in there instead, any idea why?

thanks
