Launching Taito Type X Games From RetroFE?
« on: August 23, 2020, 03:27:58 AM »
I have used a launcher called "cmd" that opens a command prompt in windows when I want RetroFE to launch a game from a .bat file. For many years this has worked fine, but now that I'm using Type X loader and integrating it into this front end, it launches the game, but then goes back to RetroFE while the game is playing. I have tried adding "pause" to my .bat file, which works until I quit the game. There is no "Press any key to continue" prompt as expected, just a black screen where nothing happens, no matter what I press. Until of course I CTRL+ALT+DEL and kill RetroFE. So my two options are having RetroFE annoyingly resume in the background, or forcing close after quitting the game.

I have not yet tried NESicaXLive but I'm thinking it will be the same result.
Any one out there have any luck getting this to work properly?
