Remove "default" argument "-psx.dbg_level 0". #86

Closed Wesley-Chan closed 3 years ago

Wesley-Chan commented 6 years ago

This seems like dead debugging code which adds "-psx.dbg_level 0" to every invoke to mednafen. Recent version of mednafen has probably obsoleted this argument, results in mednafen complaining "ERROR: Unrecognized argument: -psx.dbg_level", instead of launching the game (NES I was testing).

Recent mednafen uses psx.dbg_level setting as usual.

If mednafen gives you error, that is because it was compiled with --disable-debugger option passed to configure script.

Ah, this makes sense. In Gentoo, debugging in mednafen is enabled by pulling in mednaffe. I was wondering why I need debugging if I'm only going to play games. Thank you for explaining.

Mednaffe 0.9.0 no longer adds "_-psx.dbglevel 0" to every invoke to mednafen, so now you can use it with debugger disabled.
