    I've said it before but get a mini PC rather than a PI.
  2. Tom Speirs
    fixed now. thanks for letting me know.
  3. Tom Speirs
    Let me know if it works for you if you don't change anything or much. Otherwise absolutely its not going to work with all modified settings. A lot of stuff is not implemented too yet. For example MAME launches but Emulators don't. Its an alpha and I'm looking for feedback but not much else at this point. There is a lot of stuff I need to do before I am looking for bug reports. Thanks for taking a look though buddy. i appreciate it.
  4. Tom Speirs
    No worries. Thanks for reporting back.
  5. Tom Speirs
    Yeah, looks like you changed the theme. Dont expect everything to work here buddy. Its an alpha.

    Works for me if i dont mess with anything. Otherwise looks like you cant connect to my site. it downloads fonts and looks like it cant,
  7. Tom Speirs
    Thanks for the feedback guys. I will get on it. Nice project for me. PS: Don't know about Linux Flatpack. It will run of Unity. I believe for Linux it supports Ubuntu and compatibles.
  8. Tom Speirs
    No. Just adds more.
  9. Tom Speirs
    Hin Can you please try now. There was a servere configuration issue I just fixed.

    The setup wizard is included in the extract. You just launch one of the three included included executables.

    This is something I started in 2020. I have not made much progress until recently but now have the Windows x64 version nearly completed. It originally started as a separate project but now it uses the same code base. Please consider an alpha version at this point just for feedback and testing. If you are new here please use the other GameEx installs. The benefits of the multiplatform version: - Few or no external dependencies. Just Unity/Mono. - Eventually versions for other platforms such as Linux and Android. - Setup will be web based leveraging GameEx online, - Everything uses the same code base. All versions get updates. Downsides: - There is video support but no MKV support just yet. - Will be missing some features but both Arcade and regular GameEx will be supported. Instructions: Windows: Extract to a location with write access. Then run one of three executables. Download here View the full article

    I think Ill switch over to working on PinballX multiplatform then. More interest here I think. Plus its a lot easier than GameEx.

    I have had good luck with this debloat script: It did seem to give me a noticeable performance improvement: https://github.com/LeDragoX/Win-Debloat-Tools

    Thanks Mike. Good points. Have you tried the VPX standard version?

    Laser goodness. Nice. Thanks for the post.
  20. Tom Speirs
    Given that I have been working hard on the below which uses the same video/audio/input libraries as PinballX I wanted to ask if there is any interest in cross platform Pinballx? I also see there is this: https://github.com/vpinball/vpinball/blob/standalone/standalone/README.md Anyone tried it? PS: It does run super silky its just the capture,
  21. Tom Speirs
    I do see an exception. its probably a bug.
  22. Tom Speirs
    So the not found folder is being deleted every time you start gameex. is that right? im confused, because you just said above it was being created? Oh wait, i see there is an exception. thats why. ill look into it.
  23. Tom Speirs
    it should be noted that the folder is deleted on a schedule to allow for a new artwork scan in case new (additional) artwork has become available. its on a schedule not everytime though. or should be. it could be highlighting another issue that artwork is not downloading. id need to see "all" (artwork download and check the date) logs to look into it further.
  24. Tom Speirs
    Again, look into groovymame and emucrt drivers. Almost any AMD/ATi card will be more powerful than the ArcadeVGA although you will need to get one a few years old. You will need to research it. It should be way better. (dont worry about the registration. i went free over a year ago),
  25. Tom Speirs
    Someonthing to note Arcade#VGA MAME support is not available inthe 64 bit version of GamEex or the 32 bit version as of the last release. That is just MAME support though. If you have an arcade monitor you should look into groovymame and a used amd card. Not a huge cost. ArcadeVGA is old news, sorry.
