I am getting ready to go down this road myself, so your saying that when launching this way the WiiMote won't initialize? What about when you hit Alt-F5 on the keyboard when it launches? That should connect Wii Mote 1. I wonder if it is possible to send the Alt-F5 command after launching without having to get out the keyboard. any other things to watch out for in launching Dolphin form GameEX? Edit: Sorry didn't read where you said 2 wii mote, I think that one is Alt-F6

no not a T1 by any means lol I think I max out at 1.5 up and down but the latency is weird so the most I see on download / upload is 300kbps This is my first time messing with themes, so I took one I liked and worked with it, it is a overhaul of the BlueEX theme. I have tested it at 1024x768, 1280x1024 and 1360x768 so far. I mostly use GameEX for games so if you see something weird please let me know and I'll work on it. One thing I like most about this is the nice clean layout, and clean Icons and etc for the menus. now that I am getting used to the theme editor more I'll work on making a V4 theme soon. Anyway let me know what you think!

what are you kidding me? do you know how many times I have purchased dragons lair lmao and a few others I still have a PC copy of Brain Dead 13 (oooh which reminds me I havent checked to see if that one works in vista) I seen the HD version seems to come in three Flavours HD-DVD, Blue Ray and The PC version which comes on DVD and average $30. Goanna make me upgrade to a Blue Ray drive on my main HTPC lmao. It's sad that I havent upgraded because I havent been impressed with many movies, but I'll do it for Dragons Lair!

hrmmm I'm now interested in seeing the downloaded files and the HD files but bittorrent isn't running fast at all Would LOOOVE to see the HD version!!!! Is this availible for purchase? (goign to ebay now) and BTW I am using 1.2 without having to d/l any of the stuff or insert any DVD

is there a FTP site I can upload the theme I am working on to??? I tried mega upload and for a 15mb file I have let it go for about 4 hours now and it says only 332k is up lmao I also have the Mame lightning intro incase anyone wants that.

been working on a theme, basically modified a lot of the BlueEX 1024x768 theme since I liked the layout and feel, and found a lot of replacement pics on the internet as well as making some of my own. I have been runing at 1360x768 for the most part but assume all that would happen is the background will get smooshed somewhat. I really only use GameEX for emulation but have replaced some of the other media Icons in the pack. anyway it is about 16mb zipped.... I would like to have someone try it out and see how it looks and feels on different displays if you would like to try it out let me know how to get it to you I can't e-mail it anymore since my work e-mail limits to 4mb I may try to set my FTP server backup again but that will have to wait for the weekend!! for now I'm headed off to bed lol I have spent waaay too much time in the past week messing with this and trying to figure out the GIMP on my own lmao

yeah I have been trying to save with completely transparent backgrounds but the drop shadows on some items are getting me I just now tried to make a couple menu selection bars for the heck of it and found that transparent backgrounds wont work, either that or the bar has to be filled to the brim exact sizekinda thing just tinkering for now but fun none the less need to find some tutorials lol

beautiful! I actually found most of these were in another front ends theme pack but virtual boy wasn't in there! Thanks! I'm having a fun time playing around with the GIMP well as much fun as excruciating pain can be lmao. I'm not a graphic artist by any means and the whole transparencies thing in GameEX is throwing me off. I made a nice Exit sign and the transparancy came out really freakin dark but hey it's something to do and I will certainly enjoy the end result!

is there a suggested method for making graphics with transparency in the Gimp or photoshop to help out on this? Elfo, I'm assuming you had to cut the white layer you placed on top to match the shape of the graphic you made, correct? I'm kinda new to some of this graphics stuff but trying to pick some up to help me design items for gameex

all I had to do is under the multimedia section put in my startup vid folder path and ti took right off, didnt have to add anything else or enable anythiing else wanted that lightning mame movie for a while now and finally found it to put on!

woohoo! I'm gonna have to try this out lol however I have been image creating and hunting far too late tonight it's 1:37 AM and I have to wake up for work in the morning lmao

the F12 may only work if you have a keyboard with the F-Keys option you may actually press the Print Screen key on your keyboard and then go in to paint to paste the clipboard contents of the screen capture you took. For MAME place all your snapshots in the MAME snaps directory then in gameEX MAME configuration you have to point to that directory as well. stuff you might already know but worth checking Are you using the GUI version of MAME? if so do your snapshots show up there? (once the directory has been configured in the GUI version of MAME)

hrm... not home and exit buttons kinda makes me a little sad the exit button on the menu bar does nothing now for me, acts more like a way to go back to the home page then actually exit can the font size in the menu bar be adjusted independently of the rest of the layout? and can it be justified to the right instead of the left... (going to look now) is it possible to have pictures instead of words for the menu bar and justify thier position? lol yeah I know thats going back to the whole button thing but would be a fair comprimise I'm just full of questions now for themes lol any plans on adding support for flash items or the like? for example flash based backgrounds, animations in menus etc? No I'm not a flash programmer or developer...but it woudl be interesting to see what comes up. I remember I used to find all sorts of neat flash backgrounds and they are small in size. I once did a Jedi Knight theme on my PC and had a flash desktop background of the Jedi Knight symbol that rotated around. Then later did a skull one that was pretty neat too! doing flash stuff might be too costly though I understand but just figured I'd ask the question

havent updated my version of mame32 in a loooong time, so much so that I didnt even realize mame 32 was now mameui32 lol...made it kinda tricky to find! anyway I want to updat my mame32 install to the latest version but dont want to overwrite my settings. any suggestions?

I noticed when editing the theme I have that I can only have the menu bar with change view, back home and exit...but I can't seem to add in the little home and exit buttons at the top, nor remove the menu bar. is this because I am editing this as a V4 instead of a V2? would the same apply for expanded text on selections? if both of these are not availible I'll go back to what I was doing before and manually replacing elements in the directory I like like both of those options too much!
