Bad Cats fs by uncle Willy won’t work on my cabinet anymore. Something to do with the roms in vpinmame?

​​Hey,

I just tried playing Bad Cats full screen by uncle Willy on my cabinet, and the special menu came up, and I selected to not show the animated back glass. Then I quit and tried going in again to play it and it gives me this error:

Can’t load vpinmame,

Activex component can’t create object

Vpinmame ver 01560000 required

S11.vbs ver 3.26 or higher required

Line:0

Object required:’Controller’

Line:0

Object required:’Controller’

I Installed b2s back glass for bad cats if that’s any help.

Here is part of the script:

‘********************************************************************************

 ‘***************************Bad Cats*****************************************

 ‘****************ScriptVersion 1.0 by uncle willy*************************

****************************based on jp’s script*****************************

Option Explicit

Randomize

  BadCatsOptions = CInt (“0” & LoadValue(cRegistryName,  “Options”)) : BadCatsSetOptions

LoadVPM “01560000”, “S11. VBS”, 3.26

The first line of the script with the asterisks is red so that must be the problem.

Also I have the correct vpinmame installed, so I don’t know why it’s saying that.

Bad cats ran fine twice, so I think I messed up something in the special menu to check/uncheck show animated back glass.

Is there a way to get back to that menu manually?

I Really need help, even the desktop version of bad cats has this same problem.

I also am using b2s server, the latest one if that helps. Would deregistering b2s server help?

I also tried deleting the registry entries for the Bad Cats roms, but nothing changed.

Please help!

Load the table in editor and click the Script tab, then go to LINE 50 and you will see this...

 

            'SaveValue cRegistryName, "Options", 0 : Exit Sub  ' This will clear your Registry settings if uncommented

 

You need to remove the apostrophy from the front of that Line so it looks like this....

 

            SaveValue cRegistryName, "Options", 0 : Exit Sub  ' This will clear your Registry settings if uncommented

 

Now run the table and and the options window should show back up.

Be sure to add the apostrophy back to front of LINE 50, if you want to save settings.

 

Should be good to go.

 

Edited post for spelling.

THANK YOU XENONPH! You are a true hero, you saved me, you are Awesome! Thought I was out of luck when deleting the registry entries in regedit and nothing changed. Doing what you said in the script was perfect! Hope you have an awesome day! Take care!
Thank you again!
