I got it.. There was a menu in stella that dealt with the key mapping of Emulator events.. I made the original "Control+q" into esc which made it both shut down the game and emulator at the same time. poof back to game EX without a problem. Someone mention this fix on this board way back in 2005 under a config sharing thread lol..

The physical Keyboard command to close Stella is "Control + q" if that helps. I need to tell Game Ex to do this.

I'll look into it. Never heard of MESS before. For now though since I have stella running perfect, I would appreciate any help regarding what advanced command information required to close the emulator down after exiting a game. It is probably very simple, I just don't know the language..

question 1 I figured out... Apparently you have to reset the Atari to play some games after they are loaded. and that is done by hitting the F2 key. I was kicking myself on that one.. After I hit F2 everything worked as intended. As far as closing the emulator down after quitting a game.. I don't know what to type in the Advanced control settings to make that happen.

Hey guys it's been a long time since I posted here. It took me months to setup my Game Ex and I love it. it looks great on my 52 inch LCD.. After all my hard work I took a break from it for a while though. Anyways I want to thank everyone here for the help i've received in the past, but now I'm messing with the program again adding some new systems and I'll be back asking for help again.. Anwaysshere's my latest question.. I have recently added Stella to my Game Ex system and it runs fine but i have 2 minor issues. First the emulator wont recognize my little 8 way control pad, and only recognizes my analog controller both on the same unit so is there any kind of fix for this.. 2nd when I close out of a game through Game EX I would like the actual emulator to shut down automatically. As things are now I have to manually click the "quit" button for me to go back into Game EX.

would that be a video setting i should deal with in the emulator or in the game ex config

i don't have it in front of me atm. when i get home.. ill take a closer look and post the results

I have Vpinmame working perfectly for my 19 inch lcd monitor with windows xp. I have over 500 tables that open perfectly in full screen mode. I recently got a new vista 64 bit computer and a 52 inch high def TV that i'm using as a monitor 1080p. I have done a quick check of all the emulators I have after a data transfer and they all open except for for vpinmame. Maybe someone else hs had this problem and there is a quick fix? thanks in advance Vince

thanks guys. I'm getting ready to finish my ulimtimate gaming project after a year's worth of work.. It will be a mobile arcade machine that runs on hdtv!!

Are there any of the following emulators that wont run on Vista 64 bit? I am looking to buy a new pc and don't want to lose the months of work I have into getting Game EX set up with all my favorite games.. here is the list Daphne Mame Playstation (PSXe) Nes (Virtual Nes) Snes (Zsnes) Nintendo 64 (Project 64) Sega Genesis / CD (Fusion) Pinmame / Vpinmame thanks in advance. PS if anyone is looking for screenshots I have thousands lol

I was wondering.. do I need to literally be using Advanced Mame? right now im just using mame32.. maybe the advanced mame setting wont go into affect unless im literally using advmame?

I have been messing with my settings and still can;t get rid of the bracketed text. I have ene gone into the gameex.ini file and still no luck.. # Dont Display game Version (Bracketed) info in the game list. # For example if set to true '720 Degrees (rev 1)' Will appear in the # list as '720 Degrees'. This is useful if running at a low resolution, # as text won't get truncated. Use in conjuction with NoClones=True, to # create a very clean looking list. NoGameInfo=True This is really bothering me.. Also i can't find a way in the actual rom file to change the name and maybe work around the problem

yea its not making a difference. I can live with it if i have to i guess

Ill check again... i switched the option a couple times and nothing happened..

nah i have the list down to no copies of any game but some games have the "(" followed by some text after them... is there a way to remove that?

I was wondering how to remove the bracketed words on the mame game list. I went into advanced setting and selected yes to remove them but they still apeear. example 720 (Rev 4) i just want 720 not the (Rev 4)

yea now that i really dug into the whole logo thing I actually learned a lot. Now i know how to switch logo's and add different ones.. Sega CD runs Amazing now, and looks totally professional.

actually i've done some digging into my logo files and i dont have any sort of sega or mega cd pic.. Could someone email it to me lol. Here's my email VGuzz@aol.com. I could find a different pic on the net but i'd like it to match in theme with the others because im a dork

YEa I actually have gotten surreal to run good both in and out of game ex but still no pretty Sega CD logo. hmmm

well this is going to sound really dumb, but I cant get a sega cd logo to appear.. I'm entering Sega CD but still nothing

ok.. lol i got a cd game to open in gens32 .. what would i type in the command line to get it running? sorry Brian

I'd really like to not have to learn a new emulator since fusion works so great. Maybe I could create a new Folder containing Fusion and the Iso's... its just a matter of what I put for the command line then..

anyone get Sega CD working with EX here? I am using Fusion and everything runs fine on its own. I'm just curious as to how i should attack this one with game ex?

Are you getting a message about missing roms or vpt's even though they are in there respective folders? If you are. put everything in one folder, that being the tables folder. That got me working. Also do a resetup with pinmame telling it to get all its files from the Table folder

Well i didn't original install it to my external drive.. I put it on my main computer, got it working then moved it. Now i work on it totally from my external drive.. if i do a reinstall to my M drive i'll lose all my settings. I'm talking 6 months of work lol.. is there a way i can just grab the patch manually from this site?
