Good afternoon. Not very often a God of GameEx calls in.... got any projects up your sleeve, Frequency?

Wow. You win the prize for the most random placement of a fan in a mame machine ever!

Sadly fellas, I cannot offer my participation as support. Anywhoos I was always last picked and put in goal, so that gives you some idea... I can however be totally behind Team GE and say - go for it fellas - mop the floor with the two left handed muddy funksters.... or is that not very sporting?

Sorry chaps. I too would struggle for the time. Plus, I'm crap at games. Had a quick look at the site.. no Hyperspin team? Now, I'd follow that with interest! Be a bit like a Cheers bar wars...

Is that the IkeaKade dude? If it is - I stuck yer cab in the gamer rigs section cos it's rather impressive.

Considering it's Valve, I thought that cab a little lacking. Shoebox for a CP. Only one man's opinion, mind.

Sometimes I stumble across builds by others which are running GameEx. Invariably, due to good upbringing and social eloquence, these modest souls don't post anything on these forums. So, I thought I'd enthuse for them. Here's one I spotted which is just fab - also a fantastic custom theme: IkeaKade Build thread: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,135143.0.html

Happy Birthday Old Chap. May the drinks be flowing and the cake moist...

Did you get any further with this? Might have something useful in the pipeline for you if you went ahead with this..

I preferred the idea of a nine month collage... wtg with yer degree.

*Harrumphs.... Nope - no joy. It's all going a bit wappy: - Finishes process is quickstartup enabled. However, successfully passes tags (game image + snap as far as I know) - When Quickstartup disabled - doesn't finish process + some tags stripped. Rushed test before work, but logs attached.... UPDATE: Oh dear - even when quickstart enabled - appearing hit and miss on the tags - see attached QuickLaunch-QuickstartupDisabled.txt QuickLaunch_QuickstartupEnabled.txt QuickLaunch - QStartEnabled_tagsMissing.txt

Whooops.... shhhh! One doesn't ask such questions here! I'd guess google on the other hand may be your friend.

That feels a little daft - M$ put all that effort into designing MediaCentre and then retract it. They mustav smelt more $$ Maybe it's secretly built into Windows 9? wb Felix - that's intriguing - what Collage thing? 100 hours a week for 6 months? What you been collaging, the Great Wall of China?

or finger... Well done - that's kinda like a retro mame build. Glad you enjoyed it.

Oh - now that's a keep! How cool do they look! Check out this build for an amazing job. Some fella squeezed a PC + a 7" screen into an old micro arcade that runs hyperspin (..excuse me...) and emus up to SNES on it http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,145663.msg1515227.html#msg1515227

Just tell me you didn't leave the batteries in?

Multiplayer, role-playing (kings, queens + knights) and online (err... well kinda - remember postal chess?). I know, I know... it aint a video game - but was just kinda illustrating my point - how do you define a 'genre' or 'generation'? It's all a bit of a wild goose chase. (Still think ocarina should be in though!

Gawd - I remember playing that Donkey Kong Game and Watch for hours! Wherever did I find the concentration?

Looks like I'm outvoted on pac-man, although that anti-nostalgia-triggering video of bad 80s pap did little to change my opinion, null! *urgh* *shudders* @ the 80s Think you highlight the difficulties with this kinda thing, Classic - it's how far back you go to define 'genre-defining' - for instance, World of Warcraft: ?? or maybe even, for doom: But still, I persist... Really!? No Ocarina of time?

Think I'd remove Pac-man. It's neither genre nor generation defining - as per null's point - why pacman and not space invaders? However - Zelda Ocarina of time absent!? Who are these guys getting back handers from? and what about E.T.

Loved Fallout 3 - not many games I finish, but this was one + all the DLC. Wasn't so keen on New Vagas... This looked very nice - albeit quite similar to FO3 - hope they intro sufficient variations in gameplay whilst retaining the good bits (loved the vats targetting system). Oh.. and for the love of god, vary the pallet a bit more - after 80 hours of FO3 I was seeing the world in gray and green.

New Release - 0.6.0.0 0.6.0 Added functions around per-game settings. Updated documentation on per-game settings. Overhauled Mame CFG files tab - more useable. Added ability to view and edit .cfg files. cfg\.cfg files with no controls now display in app - shows other info such as dipswitches etc. Additions mainly around per-game settings. Documentation here: https://controllerremapgui.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Setting%20up%20Per-Game%20Settings&referringTitle=Documentation

I put a door on it. smartass (and of course that stopped all the dust :s)
