Setup Guide

Step 1: Run Setup.exe

Run Setup.exe and go through the installation process. This installs dependencies (like DirectX) and sets paths for MAMEHooker based on its location, since MAMEHooker has trouble using relative paths.

Step 1.a Choose a Drive Letter

This build uses almost all relative paths, so the drive letter does not matter. Choose a drive letter or use the drive letter that Windows assigned to the drive.

Step 1.b Place The Build On Root Of Your Drive

If your build is on drive H: for example the paths should look exactly as they do below.

H:\Launchbox  
H:\Tools

If this step is skipped, the build will not work correctly. This is very important.
