  1. From what I understand, other than eliminating the .bin extension when I type the z26, etc. my thinking was correct? As for the "sticking", when I move my paddle in the game to the corner of the screen, it will "stick" momentarily before I can move it back in the opposite direction. Any way to fix this? Also, can I adjust the volume in general by typing in commands at the DOS prompt? If so will this take care of volume levels in DOS platforms, etc. even though z26 itself has no volume control? Thanks for all the help so far:)
  2. The filename length was the reason why I kept getting the "file not found" error message. I checked the directory and it had a different filename than the one specified when you DL the game. From what I understand you can adjust the sensitivity for all paddle games by putting in at the DOS prompt: >z26 -p#.bin and this will be stored in memory while the emulator is running? I assume once you do an override for a particular game this universal setting is erased. For some reason when I move the paddle to the corner of the screen on one of the games it wants to "stick" for a moment before moving again. Any way to fix this? Also how do I adjust the sound volume? I went to the Multimedia section in the Control Panel and adjusted the volume to about 1/4 level and it still blares out of my headphones. I have stereo headphones as my speaker setup.
  3. I was able to adjust the paddles; however, does the sensitivity apply to all games or just the game you specify in the DOS prompt? What's the default sensitivity? If it's sensitive to just one game, how come sometimes when I type in the filename I get a "file not found" error when I have the game? Is there a way of using a wild card to come up with a match to avoid this?
  4. Is it possible to adjust the settings (paddle sensitivity, etc.) with the executable version of z26 using the command lines mentioned in the quick reference? If so, how?
  5. I have the z26 v1.57 (executable). For some reason I can't get it to recognize my joypad, though in the readme files it says about supporting the PC controllers to emulate the joysticks. So far I can only use the mouse to emulate the controllers. In the quick reference there are command lines which enable/disable certain features. How do I go about getting joystick support and adjusting the sensitivity of the paddles? I have a Gravis Eliminator Gamepro 10-button joypad.
  6. PCAEWIN v 2.6 uses Kaillera Client v.84. Am I able to use v.9 with this emulator?
  7. I'm having trouble configuring the controllers on my PCAEWIN v 2.6. For one of my games (Circus Atari) I can designate "button 1" as a firing button for my joystick, paddle, and driving controllers (Circus Atari uses paddles). The game works fine. However, for another game that also uses paddles (Star Wars Jedi Arena) I do the same setup and I can't get my character to move or fire correctly. Any tips on easily using the controller configuration settings and avoiding this kind of situation in the future?
  8. How do I access the game manuals for the games I download? Even when it shows up in blue in the PCAEWIN icon, I still cannot get the manual to show (even though I have it showing the proper path in the Preferences section) when I click on the book icon, or when I go to open the rom.
  9. I, too, have a gravis gamepad (10 button). PCAEWIN recognizes it. However, with a game such as Combat, I can't get my tank to move. How did you configure PCAEWIN? Did you use the software provided with the gamepad to get it to work? I haven't yet since I haven't had any problems using it so far (w/o the software) on other emulators.

    Rom errors

    I have a PCAEWin V 2.6. When I go to click and drag the rom into the PCAE emu (pcaewin.exe) itself, I get a "I/O 103" error. I get another error when I go to load or save a game into the emu from one of my rom folders. It gives me a "Read beyond end of file" error. How do go about putting roms into the emu without these errors? My OS is a Win98SE. Thanks for any help
