Re: java-related trouble getting Negatron started

I had to fix other things more urgently. That's why that didn't make it to the recent release.

It's obviously still scheduled for the next one. I'll try to make it by the end of September.

Re: Negatron doesn't start anymore

Argh, this is because 4 MAME options have been removed in v0.212 and Negatron is still expecting them in mame.ini... I'll do something more robust for the next version of Negatron to avoid encountering this kind of situation in the future. The next version is planned for Sunday 18 August. Bear with ...

Re: Negatron not start in Windows 10

Argh! Thanks for reporting this. I will hardcode the locale in Negatron then. The fix will be shipped with the next release.

Re: Negatron not start in Windows 10

Firs of all, you should add those command line options "-Xms512m -Xmx2g". By default, the JVM doesn't allow enough memory to applications and Negatron can thus suffer expansive slowdowns when loading the MAME database into memory the first time you launch it, hence the 2 GB switch. Besides...

Re: history.dat

You reported a bug that exists since the 1st version of Negatron! The thing is, at first, history.dat was a MESS only dat file (only for console and computer games). I didn't see that, when MESS and MAME merged, history.dat also added information about arcade games. That's why I didn't see this bug ...

Re: history.dat

I got a more recent version of history.dat and, indeed, I can't see any content from it in the Information tab... It looks like I'll need to debug this and see if a release is needed to fix this. Thanks for reporting this, I'll try to get back to you by the end of this week.

Re: history.dat

It's weird maybe something went wrong the first time Negatron parsed the file and now it's stuck with an invalid cache.
Then try this:
- go to Negatron's Cache subfolder.
- delete all info.* files

This will force Negatron to reparse all the .dat files the next time you launch it.

Re: history.dat

You should be able to see the content of history.dat and other .dat files: 1/ Go to the Global Configuration be clicking on the cogwheel icon on the bottom right. 2/ In the Folders tab, look for the MAME EXTRAs: History & Versioning section. 3/ On the Information subsection, there should be at l...

Re: unable to start Negatron in Linux

You shouldn't have this kind of errors. I can see only 2 potential issues that can generate this error: - your Negatron.jar has been tampered with and some stuff is missing in it. - you're missing the folder "theme" and its subfolder "language". If you installed Negatron from the...
