![]() Because of nowhere(google and EAB) does not seem to be a decent, complete overview of all WinUAE commandline parameters it is about time to place an overview here. -f To load a config-file, use: 'winuae.exe -f configfile.uae' (currently WinUAE does not check config files in: '...\Configurations' so you have to type: 'winuae.exe -f Configurations\configfile.uae' -s To set/"override"/change the parameter of an specific option (inside a config file), use: 'winuae.exe -s option=parameter'. For example: 'winuae.exe -s use_gui=no'. The option will just be changed temporary that means the configfile itself will not be modified. -config= To load a config-file, use: 'winuae.exe -config= configfile.uae' -cfgparam To set/"override"/change the state of an specific option (inside a config file), use: 'winuae.exe -cfgparam option=parameter'. For example: 'winuae.exe -cfgparam use_gui=no'. ![]() They stay in memory and "overrides" the option(s) of all loaded configurations, even if you try to load new config from GUI. To disable this state just restart WinUAE. -nomultidisplay use only primary monitor -scsilog enable scsi logging -norawinput don't try to enable rawinput (Windows XP multimouse) -forcerdtsc always use RDTSC (CPU internal clock counting register) -nordtsc never use RDTSC, use "high-resolution performance counter" instead. (WinUAE normally selects best counter automatically) -noaspifiltering enable detection of all SCSI devices (uaescsi.device normally only supports SCSI/IDE CDROMs) ->"How to add/enable zip drive to/in WinUAE?" http://eab.abime.net/showthread.php?t=12039&highlight=noaspifiltering -disableharddrivesafetycheck if enabled WinUAE allows to use each harddrive which is recognized by Windows(C) (TM) even if there is allready something installed - for example an operating system. If you allready removed all files and partitions and WinUAE still does not detect your "empty" drive which you want to use then this parameter is more than helpfull too. This switch makes it possible to use "xx in 1 cardreader" and attached drives/cards (e.g.: CF II Cardflash, Microdrive, Smartmedia etc...) directly. -rdbdump dump the "Rigid Disk Block" of all mounted drives to file(s) called rdb_dump_x.rdb. -log enable logging; it is basically the same like the log-option in misc-panel (WinUAE normally selects best counter automatically) -help (nothing happens) -h (nothing happens too) -diskswapper= This makes it possible to add disk image(s) to diskswapper while WinUAE starts. 'winuae.exe -diskswapper image1, image2,...' Some examples: If you automatically want to load a certain config and your previous safestate then enter following in command line: 'winuae -config=swiv.uae -s savestate=swiv-ready-to-play.uss' Last edited by Borg_Number_One; 23 September 2004 at 02:33. |

nomultidisplay, norawinput, forcerdtsc, nortdsc and rdbdump are troubleshooting options, they are not needed normally.
nomultidisplay: use only primary monitor norawinput: don't try to enable rawinput (Windows XP multimouse) forcerdtsc: always use RDTSC (CPU internal clock counting register) nortdsc: never use RDTSC, use "high-resolution performance counter" instead. (WinUAE normally selects best counter automatically) rdbdump: dump all mounted drive's RDB to file(s) called rdb_dump_x.rdb log: enable logging (basically same as log-option in misc-panel) cfgparam: change configuration, for example "-cfgparam cachesize=0" diskswapper: add disk images to diskswapper ("-diskswapper image1,image2,...")

-cfgparam is different than -s. Parameter(s) set with -cfgparam overrides all loaded configurations, even if you try to load new config from GUI..
-f and -config were implemented before I started working with UAE.. Quote:

To automatically load and start a configfile and savestate
I found the easiest way for me was to use the usual command line parameters for launching: Code:
winuae -config=configurations\swiv.uae -s usegui=no Code:
stateflile=savestates\swiv-ready-to-play.uss Last edited by gary; 26 September 2004 at 03:00. |

ok this may be a VERY old thread, but the search function spat this out so I am posting it here.
I was able to get WinUAE to load a configuration AND start emulation immidiately without showing the GUI. CMDLine opts look like this: winuae.exe -config=a1200.uae Thats it, nothing more, except that "show gui on startup" must be unticked in this config. Okay, now adding "-s savestate=Start.uss" or "-cfgparam savestate=Start.uss" does exactly nothing. WinUAE always does a clean boot and begins loading the game from the start. Trying what Gary suggested (adding the savestate line to the config file) has the same result as well. Is this possible at all? ***********************EDIT************ SOLVED. I had to remove that -s option out of my link and add "Savestates\" to the statefile line before the states filename. (I had the savestate\ part in the line before, but at that time it didn't work so I removed it, since the config option doesn't need 'configurations\' as well.)

hey there.. I got an idea..
I know there is linux versions that probably already is able to do this.. but as I got a win95 box just wasting space I should try to get this working.. either on win95 or 98.. anyway.. a program that loads instead of explorer.exe in the system.ini file that each second checks the diskdrive to see if there is a disk present.. if a disk is present, which contains a config file and the adf images, it loads winuae and the configuration file on the floppy disk.. the background image in "windows" shall be the white "insert floppy" background that shows for example on the A500+.. what do you think about that? ![]() // Chris |

I know this is old but how do you run a config file only so it boots into Amiga OS 4.1 FE in WinUAE, I tried it and it loads the config but still loads the GUI and not booting Amiga OS 4.1 FE.
I trying to run it from a shortcut on the desktop. I tried this: `C:\Games\amiga_os_4.1_fe\winuae -config=C:\Games\amiga_os_4.1_fe\Configurations\Amiga_OS_4.1_FE.uae -s usegui=no` |

would it be possible to start winuae with a config, start recording, waiting a few seconds, stop recording, and close winuae?

In the config remove/uncheck SHOW GUI and save config, and shortcut should work. |
