Project64 - Shows up in Steam with Grid Icons Fine - "Attempt to Open File Failed" when pressing "Play" #303

[Project64] location=C:\Emulators\Project64 (N64)\Project64.exe command=%l %r

[Nintendo 64] nickname=N64 emulator=Project64

In notes

Ice scans and finds Grid Icons just fine.

Steam opens and shows icons and games just fine.

When pressing play, Project64 launches and I get an error "Attempt to Open File Failed"

This does not happen with any other Emulator.

Looks like in Steam, when going into the Game Properties I see "C:\Emulators\Project64 (N64)\Project64.exe" "C:\Emulators\ROMs\N64\CaliforniaSpeed.z64"

If I remove the "" around the line, and leave C:\Emulators\ROMs\N64\CaliforniaSpeed.z64 and try to launch with Play, it works fine.

Though, how do I specify Ice to do this, so I'm not having to manually edit 50 N64 games properties in Steam?

Also, I am unable to launch into Full Screen?

Any tips for a rookie?

I had the same issue, I almost gave up.

I deleted the roms and re-added them using Ice and it worked... very odd. As for launching full screen, I set that within project 64 to be full screen and then on re-opening any of the roms it was still saved in that configuration.

Okay, so i fixed it. [Project64] location=E:\Emulators\Project64 (N64)\Project64-launcher.exe command=%l %r

I found that Scott has provided the Project64-launcher.exe tool. https://github.com/scottrice/Steam-Emulator-Launchers

I dropped the .exe in the Project64 folder. Directed ice to use path for the launcher.

Now Steam is able to open the 64 titles with the customer launcher.

Works in full-screen as well.

Thanks Scott.

I'll close this issue.

If anyone needs more instructions, please let me know.

I was able to get it to launch but only the emulator. It does not launch a game by itself.

Also, did you update both the emulator and console with the project4-launcher?
