Snes9x 1.53 and command-line: Not loading roms with accents
Posted: Fri Mar 14, 2014 6:10 pm
I'm having a issue on Snes9x. On Windows 7, using emulator latest version (1.53), I can't load roms from command-line if there's accents on the rom filename or path.
The example below works fine:
But the ones aren't:
On the first example, there is a directory called "Emulação" (accents bolded).
On the second one, there is a rom called "Super Metróide.smc".
It's happening only on Windows. On Ubuntu, it seems to be working fine.
I suspect it's a bug on emulator. Anyone know of a solution or workaround to this issue, besides stripping accents from path or rom filenames? I have a few emulation frontends that will partially break if I strip accents from these directories.
The example below works fine:
Code: Select all
snes9x -fullscreen "c:\Emulacao\SNES\Super Metroid.smc"
Code: Select all
snes9x -fullscreen "c:\Emulação\SNES\Super Metroid.smc"
snes9x -fullscreen "c:\Emulacao\SNES\Super Metróide.smc"
On the second one, there is a rom called "Super Metróide.smc".
