  1. Hi, I couldn't find an option in CCS64 to go fullscreen so I have written a little application to force it to fullscreen mode. You need to place the executable (fullscreen.exe) into the folder containing the CCS.exe executable. In your GameEx options, you need to launch it separately using the "AlsoLaunch" attribute. Just set it to the full path of fullscreen.exe. Eg. AlsoLaunch=C:\CCS64\fullscreen.exe CCS64_fullscreen.zip
  2. I apologise if some of these requests have already been suggested, I don't have time to go through all 7 pages. Also, if the feature is already in GameEx, please forgive me since I am a new user. - Please move cursor to bottom right corner of screen on bootup. - GameEx should remember the last menu on the last page you were on, so you always exit back to the previous position in the list. This should also apply for game/emulator lists. The last one selected should be highlighted by default. - How about having some options to automatically strip a window and force it full screen? Eg. int nX = GetSystemMetrics (SM_CXSCREEN); int nY = GetSystemMetrics (SM_CYSCREEN); // if user has requested to remove status bar HWND hWndStatusBar = GetDlgItem(g_wi.hWnd, 0xe801); // Get handle to status bar (you need to use Spy++ to get the ID) PostMessage(hWndStatusBar, WM_CLOSE, NULL, NULL); // Remove status bar // if user has requested to remove window borders SetWindowLong(hWnd, GWL_STYLE, NULL); // remove window borders // if user has requested to force application to full screen SetWindowPos(hWnd, HWND_TOPMOST, 0, 0, nX, nY, SWP_SHOWWINDOW | SWP_NOZORDER); // go full screen // if user has asked to move cursor off the screen SetCursorPos(nX,nY); // move the cursor off the screen // if user has requested to remove menu bar SetMenu(hWnd, NULL); // remove menu bar UpdateWindow(hWnd); // update window // if user has requested to bring window to top BringWindowToTop(hWnd); SetForegroundWindow(hWnd); If i think of more features, I'll post later. Top work btw Tom!
  3. This is a great program, works well with GameEx. I have made a Mame boot logo to go with this program. Download BootLogo and open the Boot.bmp included in the attached zip file. Alternatively, you can use the Boot_blank.bmp to have no boot logo. I have also attached a little program which I guess could be an alternative to Instant Sheller called "HideDesktopIcons". You place this program in your Startup folder. Used in conjunction with "Auto-Hide" for the task bar and setting your desktop background to be black with no bg image, it bascially creates a blank desktop. The reason why this can be a little more convenient than Instant Sheller is that you can get access to your desktop icons simply by clicking the "Show Desktop" icon in the Quick Launch Toolbar on the task bar. This is for people who still wish to conduct normal computer business, you still have access to the taskbar and desktop icons, whilst in normal operation they are hidden. To bring back the icons completely you can just run "HideDesktopIcons -restore" and your icons will show again. Boot.zip
