Im trying to get The Crystal Maze ROM to work (this one...http://www.fruit-emu...ads&showfile=55) but i cant seem to get it to work...please could someone tell me how to get it working?

Thank You

Have you downloaded a layout as well? It sounds like you haven't - you can't just run a ROM on its own.

I suggest you take a read of the tutorials here.

That's a standard error when running a layout meant for MFME in BFMulator. You really need to read the tutorials and consult the knowledgebase as you are encountering fairly standard, answered before, problems.

Are you using windows xp? Do you know which version of mfme your using?

[richy23]

V1.1 is the veirson im using and i am using windows XP...Does that effect anything?

[CrAzYbAr]

Might do. You might need to download MFME2.0

Well tbh mate it depends on what layout your running, most layouts will have release notes with them mentioning which program to run it in.

Pretty much all mfme layouts you download will run in mfmev2 as this is what they are designed in.... so definately download that : http://www.fruit-emu...ads&showfile=21

also id download the newer versions of mfmev3 http://www.fruit-emu...s&showfile=2098 as some layouts will need this to run and some just generally run alot better in this and also you can resize layouts with ease.

When you load the layouts are you getting any type of error message now?

[richy23]

Not sure then im afraid. Im sure someone else on here will be able to help...... i think this problem has come up a couple of times before but i cant seem to find anything on the forums atm.
