FS-UAE Launcher

[RealNC]

I use KDE and it already looks mighty fine to me:

I guess you don't have the Gtk version of Oxygen installed?

Ok, I'll wait, thanks for reply

It seems that you're right, below my UI.
I'm installing that package

I installed oxygen-gtk2 and oxygen-gtk3 from arch official repository but UI is still the same. Reboot?

Nope. Enable Oxygen as your Gtk theme. If you have a Gtk Themes option is System Settings, use that. If not, do it manually with something like the following in your ~/.gtkrc-2.0 file:

include "/usr/share/themes/oxygen-gtk/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
include "/etc/gtk-2.0/gtkrc"
gtk-theme-name="oxygen-gtk"
gtk-icon-theme-name="oxygen"
gtk-fallback-icon-theme="oxygen"

The paths might differ in your distro (I use Gentoo). Gtk3 is configured differently. In your ~/.config/gtk-3.0/settings.ini, simply put this in there:

[Settings]
gtk-theme-name = oxygen-gtk

Thanks for your reply.
In my case all work with only a reboot

Where are congifuration files?

Launcher shows an old config that I deleted from HD

Configurations (file entries, not contents) are cached in the database, and should be removed on next scan if the files are deleted. But right now, they are not remved properly. For now, you can delete Documents/FS-UAE/Launcher/Database* (this is only a cache, and no data is lost) and re-start the launcher and run the scan function again.

(I hope you all understand that the launcher is not complete yet and have a bit of patience with occasional inconveniences )

Ok, it works but last configuration is shown. What's the trick? :P

Don't worry, I appreciate your work, sorry for my questions!

All state is remembered as it were when you last quit FS-UAE Launcher, so selecting a configuration (or choosing New configuration will clear everything) -if I understand correctly what you meant here.

Not meant like that, please do feel free to ask any question

Isn't there a file for this function?

By the way I can't save (or open) any configurations, buttons are grey, see attachment

If you are referring to the state information, all settings and state are saved in ~\AppData\Roaming\fs-uae\launcher.settings (on Windows 7).

EDIT: ~/.local/share/fs-uae/launcher.settings on Linux (don't know why I thought you used Windows).

Coming later- right now, configurations must be written in a text editor, and configurations are only loaded when you select them in the list view to the right - all .fs-uae configuration files in Documents/FS-UAE will appear in this list when running the scan function.

Hi

There's another problem :P

I have a cracked version of Monkey Island (also the original Amiga floppies) for bypass wheel code. I also have the real wheel code but I can't use it because keyboard not accepts input

In Workbench OS keyboard works fine.

What do you think?

Bye


EDIT: I can't see screenshots.

My configuration file: The Secret of Monkey Island.fs-uae
Screenshots path: /home/ionic/Games/Amiga/Screenshots/T/The Secret of Monkey Island.png
Titles path: /home/ionic/Games/Amiga/Titles/T/The Secret of Monkey Island.png

EDIT 2: Launcher and main program work in different folders.
Launcher on

/home/ionic/Documents/FS-UAE

main program on

/home/ionic/FS-UAE

and screen path on

/home/ionic/Games/Amiga.

Is there a way to solve it?

Please attach FS-UAE/Logs/FS-UAE.log to a post (you may need to zip it or rename to .txt to be allowed to attach it to an post) after running the game, so I can try to reproduce.

"The " and "A " prefixes are skipped, so the images should be put in the S folder.

Screenshots can also be put in ~/Documents/FS-UAE/Screenshots instead of ~/Games/Amiga/Screenshots if you like.

~/Documents/FS-UAE vs ~/FS-UAE is a bug. You don't have XDG user dirs set up, so the Documents dir is not found. The difference is that glib (which FS-UAE) uses defaults to ~ when the Documents dir is not configured, and the launcher is coded to default to ~/Documents. I will fix the launcher to default to ~ as well.

Bug?

each config file exists only one times

Yes, I fixed it yesterday, will try to put out a new version tonight

The launcher also supports finding games and creating configurations automatically based on information from a database. If you're interested in testing the functionality (or just bored ), you can download the following file:

http://fengestad.no/fs-uae/files/AmigaGameDatabase.zip
Definitions for multiple variants of Lotus 1, 2 and 3 are included (including screens and covers). The definitions are based on information from TOSEC, Softpres and WHDLoad.

- Extract the contents to the FS-UAE/ folder or ~/Games/Amiga/
- Start FS-UAE and open the scan dialog
- Make sure that Lotus 1, 2 and 3 files are located somewhere under one of the directories on the search path (or add more paths).
- Run the scan function. Depending on what ADFs, IPF and WHDLoad zip files are present, you should end up with a number of configurations in the configurations list if the games were found.
