Puzznic & Pinball Dreams Do Not Load #66

Puzznic doesn't seem to load. Just an all black screen (no text or anything) shows up.

Someone posed about the setname tag in the MGL files not being supported, but has since deleted their comment. I looked more into this, and found that it's not that the setname tag isn't supported, but more that it isn't needed and is set incorrectly. Removing the setname tag from the game MGLs resolves the issue.

I found that both Puzznic and Pinball Dreams have this issue.

That was me. I had found that deleting the whole setname line seemed to fixed it, but I made an incorrect assumption about the cause. Decided to delete the comment now that Main_mister was updated today (240505) adding support for the “same_dir” attribute. This fixes a few community compiled 0mhz games on archive (like mega man 1 and mega man 3) but puzznic still fails.

EDIT: Puzznic now works when you add same_dir="1" after the setname tag.
