hello all.. thank you for all your replies Ive had the same problem with n64 search with scanner. the create list error. Ive done rocky 5, then xbmc emustation in e:, then copied roms (archive romset, renamed to straight name.) zipped in roms dir. all paths set to e:/ installed n64 emu from downloader, then did scanner, auto picked up everything but n64 which came back with create list error, found and read this thread and tried edit createlists.py, but address 911 doesnt have a great insert point, so I went back a little to this point and inserted there. line 761 starts below... ## Check if n64 was found and parse the names from surreal.ini if the roms match. N64_Rom_Name = Rom_Name_noext if Parse_N64_TXT == 1: line 763 ends here........ Now it detects and lists n64 game and emu is on carrosel, but when I run a rom in emu it stays black screen after load, also doesnt allow for restart from controller, have to power button it back. So Im guessing its a surreal,ini problem, video related, as im using plain rca output and not hdmi, just guessing tho as Ill start going through it and see if I can edit my way out of this, and yes Ive tried reinstalling, and looked for junk data in tdate.udata and didnt find them. I did read the logs and that pointed to first warning that n64 var not set, then the code that failed from lack of that var, thanks rocky for the hint to look there. once again, thanks all, and good luck...
