Henderson33 Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Hi, i have been following simply austins tutorials on youtube and things were running smooth until i got to the tutorial on installing MESS. I have followed him step by step but when i go to run a game through rocketlauncher i get about 20 seconds delay and then an error saying... 'There was an error waiting for the window "ahk_class MAME" to become active. Please check you have the correct version emulator installed for this module, followed any notes in the module, and have this emulator working outside your Frontend first. Also turn off Fade to see if you are hiding your problem.' Ive tried loads of things like using a more upto date version of MAME and MESS but still same problem, the confusing thing is simply austin provides the emulators so ive been using exact same program as him. Maybe its down to the module update thats causing a problem for my set up as his tutorials are a couple of months old. Anyway is there any systems that MESS will run but Retroache wont run because im really giving up on this now Thank you Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SIMPLYAUSTIN Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 Hmmmm... getting a ahk.class error is normally a tale tale sign of module problem. Have you given the module the required information it is asking for mate? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henderson33 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Hi, yeah i cant see anything in notes that its asking me to do. Is there a way to replace the modules i have with he ones u r using in your set up? cheers Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henderson33 Posted July 6, 2015 Author Share Posted July 6, 2015 Opps, im clearly a noob at this...i went browsing through the module and u have to direct the the module to the mess bios folder. U didnt need to do that on your tutorial did u austin? 2 days later and its something as simple as that Im starting to think i should do the housework and put the girlfriend in front of the hyperspin setup Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

newoski Posted July 6, 2015 Share Posted July 6, 2015 You will also probably have to be careful with MESS as it is now part of MAME and I believe they are merging the modules for them as well so if you run standalone mess then the module will probably be looking for the wrong class. Link? I haven't seen this confirmed anywhere yet Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
