Do I have to put my zinc games into the mame rom folder, or can i have a separate folder for the zinc roms?

apols, as i know this is an old post, but did this prob get resolved, as i am having the same prob. I have the plugin and zinc games do show up in GameEx, but when i launch a game, I get a blank screen, I get sound, but no display TIA Capp

I too would be interested in your config

Was wondering if there is any plans to have a filter in GameEx that will show games via how many players they support. I know there is a file called nplayers32 (http://nplayers.arcadebelgium.be.) that shows diff categories in regards to how many ppl can play each game, Myself, am only interested in sorting the 4 player games, so that i have a quick list that i can choose a game quickly for 4 ppl, rather than having to go thru the whole list of games. ???? EDIT: Hmmm, seems i should have read all of the read me file, apparantly its already supported in GameEx How do i find this option in GameEx pls?

thanx guys, all fixed and working now

Hi Could someone please post their stepmania config for gameEx pls? cheers Capp

rf couldnt turn it off, as in the drop down list it had 2 options, visual pinball and prject 64 config do i have to put that emulator in a different slot?

23:12:44.5 9/13/2005: Running: cmd.exe /c C: zsnesw.exe "C:\MAME\SNESSTATION\ROMS\Batman Revenge of the Joker(SN-E)(X).zip" 23:13:36.5 9/13/2005: Sending %{F4} to emulator 23:14:14.3 9/13/2005: Sending %{F4} to emulator there is the last part of it, and the whole log is attached log.txt

just changing that and will see if it works

Game Ex locks up when trying to get out of a game with the znes emulator follow oxblow's config in the config forum it goes to a black screen, and the only way to get out of it is to press the mapped esc key twice, which boots me back to the desktop Once i go back there, i cant load Game Ex again, i have to reboot

I have noticed that when u click on a game to play, some of the games has info on the objects or a short description of the game. Some of them dont have any info at all. Is there a way to make your own summary of what the game is about, so when you choose a game there is that info that you have created?

Just sent my donation great work thanx Tom My money is well spent on your front end cheers mate Capp

I have obtained a heap of avi's for the N64 Roms where do i put them so that GameEx shows them instead of the snaps?

Tom, I have to congratulate you on making this great front end well done, and thanx to all the posters out there that are only too happy to help out us newbs.

Is it possible on the main screen on game ex to show the emulators as a direct link? (someone asked this question the other day and cant seem to find it, or any answers to it) eg MAME N64 PINMAME rather than MAME Emulators ???

ebay here in Australia, one bloke knows that they arent making them anymore and is selling them for AU200 !!!! steep, very steep imo

nah mate not useless at all, thats what i needed to find out, as i have sifted thru the byoac forums and it just goes on and on. apparantly u can hack a ps2 light gun to use with a tv, but not yet with a monitor due to the limitations of it. primarily i want to use it for timecrisis and such games, but havent looked further into if its compatible. i dont have the gun as yet, was looking into it first before i decide whether to buy one or not.

Has anyone had experience in getting an arcade gun, like the one used for T2 , to work with mame and a pc monitor?

I have a prob with using vpinball in gameEx, some of the tables sounds are too low, yet the noise of the ball, and the flippers is quite loud, but the music and voice overs are too soft, I have turned up all the sounds to max in vpinball. some tables are fine, but the majority arent. am using the latest G/Ex as of today probs existed in the past with this as well. Is there an option to turn up the table sounds? besides the option in vpinball, audio settings. ( i have turned up the volume in the config for Game Ex as well.)
