Tom email me offline.. just how much is tiny? Just curious for my own site, which by the way has nothing to do with video games.

hey guys, here's a pic of my cab running GamEx out on my porch. I built the cab from some original cab plans found on the net. I only changed the cab depth because I have a 22" LCD instead of an arcade monitor. The guts is an AMD dual core with 3g ram and an ATI card. X-arcade tank stick to control the action and a small beer fridge off to the left to keep me happy! -Ing

The Coronas have me thinking... How cool would it be to connect to another cab via the internet as player 2?!? Ing

For Tom: The front page of the GameEx site crashes under Linux running Firefox 3 over the last couple of months. Just so you know.... It's the only site that I've had this problem with and it's plug-in related. I hope that they get the plug-ins worked out because I have to switch computers to access anything but the forums. Again.. just wanted to make you aware. Keep up the excellent work! Ing Edit: I take that back, the site works just fine under Opera/Linux.

GameEx on Linux.... under WINE. I knew in probably wouldn't work because of .net, but I tried anyway to see how far I could get. BTW, this is on Ubuntu. Ing

Hmm.... Makes sense, I might have to delete and recopy all those files from my backup drive. We'll see after a few more beers. Thanks, Ing

GXMAME (linux) looks and acts almost exactly like MAME32/MAMEUI for those of you who like to tinker. Ing

looks like mameUI32 works! wine test link

FYI, I just did this in a clean install of vista 64... installed Vista64 codec pack then installed klite full codec pack. Played a few snaps then installed gameex and all is good. Ing

What do you mean linked? I copied over the horizontal first, then the vertical. When the same name file came up I chose to keep the larger of the two. Ing Edit. My bad I didn't see the link you put in there...

That's exactly the info I was looking for. You guys rock! Ing

GameEx OS, the Linux distribution. I can dream can't I?!?! Ing

Question about snaps, I have the HQ set. Do I dump all these folders in my avisnaps folder or only the stuff in horizontal? BTW I'm now using MameUI64 on my MAME cab because my new computer has Vista64. I wasn't able to use the HQ ones before because the old MAME computer would choke on them. Thanks, Ing

Got it and applied no prolblemo. Thanks for the help. Ing

Thanks! I shot Tom and email and hopefully he'll hook me up. Ing

Hey guys, just bought a new computer on a whim (good price) with vista home premium 64 to upgrade the mame cab. Original plan was to wipe it and put xp on it, but couldn't find any drivers. I installed Gameex on it and transfered over my emulator folder no problem. Gameex runs with the wait screen. When I try to apply the registry file for gameex it errors out. Is there something you have to do different vs XP or do i need to get a new reg file? thanks, Ing

Hola all. Silly question without going into detail... Really just planting the bug of a "lite" operating system just to run a GamEx box with emus without all the other garbage. Could just be a slip streamed Windows flavor embedded with .net... Food for thought! Also, I'm not advocating a "torrent iso" that would be "complete install", although that would be sweet, just maybe digging into what it would take to compile... BTW my GamEX cab kicks a$$ since I installed it on a dedicated box/cab last year w/only minor problems after updates. Seems my buddies enjoy it more than me, but I get the kick out of actually making it work. Ing

Thanks! I'll give it a shot. Ingeanous comes from when I got my email account back in the mid 90's and the correct spelling was already taken. Had that handle ever since. Thanks again... Ing

Hey guys, first of all I searched for this but didn't find a fix. Need some guidance... My cab hasn't been on in a few weeks. I was on vacation. Anyways, when it loaded up it did an update. When it was done everything came up except my favorites were gone. I don't know if the update had anything to do with it. Regardless of what killed them, where is this info stored? I have a complete backup of gamex and my games on another drive and I'd rather extract the info than spending several hours rebuilding the list. Man it took alot of beer the first time around. PS, the only difference in the new install vs the old is the folder paths. This go around I put all the roms on their own drive. Thanks in advance! Ing

Not trying to hijack the thread, any GamEx'ers in the Tampa area? The wife has no interest.... other than me being able to steam radio from the cab. Ing

Would it be possible to flag games as "beat" or "completed" in a future release? Ing

Sweeet!!! can't wait to update. Ing

Hey guys, this may be a little off topic, but how would you enable MAME to save state when you exit through GamEX. Basically I would like to keep the high scores when exiting. BTW I am running MAMEUI32 and an x-arcade tankstick in my cab. Thanks! Ing

CCCP and disabling audio with avisnaps fixed it for me. With audio enabled, it would lock up GamEx. This was with both HQ and SQ. Strange though, I mapped AVISNAP folder in the multimedia options and the videos play fine w/sound through GamEX multimedia section. Ing
