How is anyone supposed to know where you installed / extracted WinUAE to? My WinUAE extraction directory is "C:\WinUAE" and my Configurations directory is then "C:\WinUAE\Configurations" for example... Quote:
Code:
WinUAE -f ".\Configurations\<configuration file name>.uae" -cfgparam use_gui=no Code:
WinUAE -f ".\Configurations\Default.uae" -cfgparam use_gui=no Last edited by DamienD; 20 November 2017 at 12:20. |

Also "Mouse/Joystick autoswitching" is ticked by default everytime you open WINUAE again so it is USELESS to uncheck it and save your keyboard config file. |

YOU must be doing something wrong and not informing us of YOUR error. When I'm back home I will run this setup from scratch using the install method and not the portable method, and create a new default configuration just so I can confirm to Toni, not that that needs doing in all honesty, that the current version of WinUAE works as it should. Unless someone else can do this before I get home. I really believe you're missing a step somewhere, or, you're just here to troll EDIT: OK, I'm running this on XP in virtualBox, so I can mess about with it in the same environment EDIT 2: Right, here we go. Clean install, start WinUAE 3.5.0, change keyboard layout from default A to B in port 2, back to configurations, in name called it "Default" and clicked Save, closed WinUAE 3.5.0, ran WinUAE 3.5.0, default config loaded and my changes that I made to the keyboard layout were indeed B as I had previously set. Conclusion: YOU ARE DOING IT WRONG AND MISSING SOMETHING VERY IMPORTANT. You don't have a previously installed version of Amiga Forever do you? Last edited by DH; 20 November 2017 at 12:57. |

-f name_of_config_file.uae is enough, no need for configurations\

well, it is me again and i find out WINUAE bug, that's why u were able to do my thing while i wasn't.
The bug is this: WINUAE does NOT autoload CUSTOM config file !!! It ONLY autoloads KEYBOARD LAYOUTS A or B or C. I made some attempts and i was able to make WINUAE autoloads KEYBOARD LAYOUT A/B/C without any problem but WINUAE NEVER autoloads CUSTOM KEYBOARD config file. WINUAE only saves it without autoloading it. And my problem is WINUAE must autoload CUSTOM KEYBOARD CONFIG FILE because i do not feel good by using any KEYBOARD LAYOUTS A/B/C. These are the proofs about this bug: 1) preloaded WINUAE settings with KEYBOARD LAYOUT A: 2) preloaded WINUAE settings with CUSTOM KEYBOARD KEYS: and obviously my CUSTOM config file was this: so, if u try to help me, remember to use CUSTOM keyboard settings instead of predefined WINUAE LAYOUTS settings... I HAVE ENCLOSED HERE JUST NOW ONE ATTACHMENT THAT IS MY CUSTOM CONFIG FILE (named natasha.uae) SO YOU CAN PUT IT TO YOUR WINUAE CONFIG DIRECTORY AND FIND OUT WINUAE DOES NOT AUTOLOAD IT.

We are trying to help you here... Replying in captial, bold, large red text doesn't really inspire anyone to bother assisting you. Anyway, onto your issue. I've already told you where to put the above line i.e. at the end of your WinUAE shortcut. So, going off your pictures posted in the thread for your WinUAE path + shortcut... Right-click on your WinUAE shortcut, select Properties and then put this in: Code:
C:\Programmi\WinUAE\winuae.exe -f "Default.uae" -cfgparam use_gui=no |

Yes mine auto loaded because I named my file the same as the default.uae config file and voila it loaded as expected. Anyway, you seem to have finally cracked it with the enormous help from DamienD. I'll leave you to it with Damien as he'll help you endlessly with your problems |

no no wait....
NOTHING WORKED and i made a mistake before when i wrote here i was finally able to autoloads it. After i worte DAMIAND code, Winuae allows me to play my Amiga rom only by using mouse while i set up custom keyboard config file so i am still at the beginning. I am writing this now because i have been busy till now to find out everything does not work. And you, DH, what did you choose on CONFIGURATIONS - GAME PORTS ? Did you choose KEYBOARD LAYOUT A or B or C or did u choose CUSTOM 1:..... ? You must only choose CUSTOM 1 and map your keyboard keys. After that, save your config file and close Winuae. Them open it again and u will find out Winuae did NOT autoloads your custom config file so i wait your reply. |

So let me get this straight....
You're now loading the natasha.uae config file automatically yes? When you make changes to the configuration of WinUAE you do re-save it as "natasha.uae"? If you do, then it should work |

no, it won't because Winuae does not autoloads my CUSTOM 1 config file.
Winuae only saves it (natasha.uae) but Winuae does not autoloads it when you open Winuae. So i can make any changes to natasha.uae and Winuae will save it but will never autoloads it. Winuae ONLY autoloads KEYBOARD LAYOUT A, B, C but it doesn't with CUSTOM 1: You could try to create CUSTOM 1 config file and tell me i am right. |

You need to do your customisation on Port 2, not Port 1... |

Ok, now that I'm home and in front of my laptop, just tried with your "natasha.uae" configuration using my WinUAE setup and it works perfectly
Here's the proof... WinUAE shortcut: Looking at "Game ports" afterwards: So when you double-click on the WinUAE shortcut it will: a) Launch and load the specified configuration file. b) Start emulation automatically. Note that this was using the following (adjusted for your WinUAE path): Code:
C:\Programmi\WinUAE\winuae.exe -f "natasha.uae" -cfgparam use_gui=no Code:
C:\Programmi\WinUAE\winuae.exe -f "natasha.uae" |

Since I'm a nice, helpful person
...plus I can see that you've been busy trying out different emulators and struggling: a) FS-UAE: Config.fs-uae.ini b) WinFellow: graphic error... My advise to you, for what it's worth... if you are using a Windows OS, stick with the best i.e. WinUAE Anyway, I've taken the liberty to correct your configuration for virtually all Amiga games i.e: Port 1 = Mouse Port 2 = Your "custom" keyboard configuration Here's how it looks after double-clicking on the "adjusted" WinUAE shortcut and then clicking on "Game ports": Of course, you still need to follow the instructions detailed by me in the thread to either: a) Launch WinUAE, load your "Default" configuration file and then start emulation automatically i.e. Code:
C:\Programmi\WinUAE\winuae.exe -f "Default.uae" -cfgparam use_gui=no b) Launch WinUAE and just load your "Default" configuration file i.e. Code:
C:\Programmi\WinUAE\winuae.exe -f "Default.uae" Last edited by DamienD; 21 November 2017 at 00:00. |

You know, it wasn't my fault because i could not know PORT 1 does not work and PORT 2 does. Yes, it is right you DAMIEND told me this: Quote:

Also i have never known nothing about virtualized games and their ports. Quote:
AND I WANNA THANK YOU YOU DAMIEND BECAUSE YOU HAVE BEEN THE MOST ACTIVE AND HELPFUL USER IN HERE. OTHER USERS DO NOT EVEN KNOW HOW TO HELP ME.... I'D LIKE TO RETURN YOUR HELP SO PLEASE TELL ME HOW TO RETURN IT. Last edited by pierini1; 21 November 2017 at 10:19. |

Others were willing/trying to help you too pierini1, however it may be the language barrier that has caused some confusion on both parts.
Really pleased it's all sorted now and for future reference, we're here to help and don''t expect/need anything in return |
