In Reply to: ArcadeOS question. Emus other than Mame. posted by Agent Davis on 18, 2000 at 3:45 AM:
If the filename has a space in it, or is longer than 8 letters or the extention has more than 3 letters, DOS programs will see these as the first 6 letters then ~#. Since you are getting only 5 letters before ~# it means the filenames have a space in them at letter 6.
I think there's an option in ArcadeOS.cfg to enable Window's long file name support. If not, you'll have to rename them to DOS standard.
: I just set up arcadeOS to run other emus besides mame and all is good except one thing: It is not displaying the complete file name. For some reason ArcadeOS is only showing the first 5 letters or so and then ~# (# being the number of file with the same name). Any help on how I can get it to show complete filenames? I will say this. Last night I was playing NES on an arcade cabinet. :) This is so awesome!
