ok, sounds goood, will try it after work. Also, i have a question. Since i'm using an x-arcade, and dont want any keyboard use, how would i set it up, so i can close any application i run from GameEx with the x-arcade? Like holding down a certain button for a few seconds, or holding a series of buttons? right now i press Escape.... would like to be able to do it through the x-arcade..... Thx agian Brian...

Taken Care of. Thx all.

real Quickly, How would i Have 2 Mame's Configured, If i do get .96??

I checked the folder. And there were other non rom files. I took them out, restarted GameEx, and it works perfectly now! Detects All roms! Thx a bunch all!!

Ok, Noted. I'll try those emus after work. Thx for your input Brian, you rock! I only got a 1.91 ghz 1 gig ram athlon 2600+ system. I'll see if it runs seamlessly.

Hello, Just curious to see if anybody has Ultra 64 emu working. I can only run Killer Instinct 1 & 2 Flawlessly with this Emu. If anyone has an Idea or knows how to, your help will be greatly appreciated. My system is almost complete, donations are pending if I can get this going! Great Forum, Great Peeps, Great program...

Ok will do. Will try when i get off work, thx man!

I got the roms to all show up in GameEx. however when i load a game, the screen goes black.... nothing happens... i press a button and it comes back to GameEx...I have this problem with snes, gens, and nes games. they all show up, and will load into the emu, but it goes black and everntually will go back to GameEx. any help? btw, i have zsnes, gens+, and nestopia, all latest versions....and they all work outside og GameEx...

got it to work. the chd files were money. thx for help all!!

well i got these files off a korean web-site. there small zip files for cps3 games. they work very well. i just obtained the chd files. i';m gonna try to figure this out now...

Hello all. this is the message i get.. Anybody got an idea? Loading Emulator 2: Nintendo SNES games 17:47:59.5 10/15/2007: Error: Emulator_2: 7-Zip/Goodmerge support is a registered version only feature 17:47:59.5 10/15/2007: --Please correct the error above for this emulator or disable the emulator. THx a bunch all.

well... not exactly... i have the no cd files... they work in mame32plus... i guess GameEx cant see those??

OK. I got all the games to show now. However, I select them and load, and it loads up mame, and says loading complete, then it goes black, then back to GameEx.... any clues? i turned off the skip disclaimer function as it was entering keystrokes, it had no effect......other games work, just not the sf 3 series.....any ideas?

Ok. Really quickly, do i have to enter the extension? like sfiii3.zip in the do not filter list?

Ok thx. I will try this when i get home, in another 2 hours. I deleted alot of the text when i was changing the menus. So i dont seee it. I'll reinstall. thx a bunch!

I did refresh the list. Twice in fact. When you say add these roms to the do not filter list, do i type the location or the name of the file? and if so, if theres multiple files, do i use a "," to seperate them? Also is there an easier way to update the games list in GameEx? I had to reinstall it to do this....

Hello, I have the latest mame32 .119 It detects all my other games except the cps3 games, like sf3, jojo, vampire savior. I turned off filters completely. These games work in regular standalone mame32 gui. Not sure why Game Ex wont pick it up... any tips?? Thx Dalo
