AddMusic won't open ROM

I'm using Romi's addmusic, but it gives me the error: Invalid option, Couldn't open ROM file" whenever I try to use it. I inputted the command correctly, but it just won't open. There re no spaces in the ROM name.
Did you remember to include the .smc extension when entering the file name? Also, is the ROM and Addmusic in the same folder?

Yes, both are in the same folder, they have the extensions, and the rom has been expanded.
Instead of opening the batch file, drag your rom over it instead.
I did. It said that it isn't an operable batch file. I'm using the Windows command line. Why won't addmusic open my ROM???


I'm not completely sure if it makes much of a difference, but is it called "Command Prompt.exe" or "cmd.exe"?




...Also, why do you need a batch in the first place? All you have to type into cmd.exe is "AddMusic.exe romname.smc".

If you typed that into cmd.exe, why do you have a batch?

I don't. I don't even know what a batch fike is. I'm assuming that batch is cmd. Why won't it open? I'm following the tutorial EXACTLY as it says.

a batch file is basically a txt file that has the .bat extension,


1. Drag ROM over batch file.

2. Open cmd.exe

3. Enter addmusic.exe romname.smc

4. Drag over batch again.

Have you done all of this?
Did you rename the addmusic folder to "addmusic" or something with no spaces?

Who knows when I'll have
something to put here.

Why is LEVEL at the end?

Have you extended the rom or saved in LM once?
Yes, I did that. "LEVEL" is at the end because it's what the tutorial told me to do. I tried it without "LEVEL" at the end and it STILL didn't work. I expanded the ROM.


Have you inserted any patches?
I can not stress this question enough.
Maybe we should have it required to give information about patches.

There are no patches in the ROM. Lunar Magic and SNES9x can open it.


Have you used any other addmusics?
EDIT: I am NOT saying "GO GET ANOTHER RITE NAO".
Addmusics screw with each other.

Does it only happen with this ROM?
