That's true I just don't want people thinking they are paying for WinUAE Loader. It's a free program.

Most of the logo's found in "GameEx\THEMES\Default - Default\MEDIA\LOGOS" are ones I've collected, so check there for the latest ones.

I agree we really need a "news" section for all the rss feeds.

Unfortunately no, sorry. The one I grabbed was extracted from the exe and it already had the shadow.

Draco: I cut out a nicer Model2 logo you can use for theme if you want.

Wow some great prizes, great work Adultery. You know it might be worth posting about the competition on the BYOAC forums.

The whole idea of WinUAELoader is to use the GameBase database for launching games with the required settings. The best games to get are the WHDLoad set (WinUAELoader has a links section for where to find everything) Has anyone tried GameEx's built in GameBase support with GameBase Amiga? It should theoretically do the same thing as WinUAE Loader (minus a few bells and whistles).

FYI The registration is for WHDLoad and has nothing to do with WinUAELoader.

That's pretty cool

I have two icons setup on my desktop called "Run Explorer on Startup" and "Run GameEx on Startup". When I'm in maintenance mode I double click the former icon and when it's ready to go I launch the latter. Here are the two scripts, just be aware if your GameEx install location is different you will have to edit it in Notepad. ShellSwitch.zip

What about [nullDC_GUI] AutoHideMenu=1 PS I've updated the download to include these default settings in the nullDC.cfg file.

LaunchBefore=cmd /c "E:\Games\Ultils\xpadder\xpadderSSFtest.bat"[rompath]\[romfile]"" There should be a space after the .bat and the double quotes. The %1 in a batch file is the first parameter send to it. Eg. MyBatFile.bat Param1 Param2 Param3 So %1 is Param1, %2 is Param2 and %3 is Param3 The problem is if you want to pass in something that has spaces, you have to put double quotes around it Eg. MyBatFile.bat "Param1 Param2 Param3" Now %1 is "Param1 Param2 Param3". You can check it's passing it in correctly by doing the following in your bat file echo %1 pause That should display the full path to your CD image. You can run GameEx in windows mode to check it or alt-tab to it.

Say you have your emulators in C:\Emulators you should be able to do a search and replace in GameEx.ini to E:\Emulators using Notepad.

The latest Setup Wizard should make setting up GameEx alot easier for you than the first time around.

Try following the instructions "Troubleshooting Calibration Problems" at the bottom of this page

It looks like you need place the disk mounting inside the batch file rather than run it simultanously. You can pass on the arguments to the batch file. Remove the AlsoLaunch command and change the following line LaunchBefore=cmd /c "E:\Games\Ultils\xpadder\xpadderSSF.bat "[rompath]\[romfile]"" Then in your batch file C:\Program Files\DAEMON Tools Lite\dtlite.exe -mount 0,"%1" D: CD "D:\Games\emulated\sega saturn\SSF_012_beta" cmd /c "D:\Games\Ultils\xpadder\xpadderSSF.bat" SSF.exe start "" "D:\Games\emulated\sega saturn\SSF_012_beta\deamon tools and xpadder exit.bat" You may have to play around with the double quots in the LaunchBefore command but give it a try.

Are you using a cut down version of XP? I noticed in your log file it says Which I believe is the "Speak Game Name" plugin. I'm just wondering why it couldn't load the plugin. Try disabling it. Perhaps you could try reinstalling the latest version of GameEx? It should not mess with your current settings. Oh and this is probably a stupid question but you have you pressed "TAB" in MAME and selected "Input (General)" and made sure you have configured your joysticks correctly?

Howard Casto has been working on some wrappers for Taito X games. You can check them out here and the related thread here. PS If someone can post a working profile for these I can add them to default GX install.

Welcome back Hansolo. Glad to hear you're back in business and getting your life back in order.

I've updated the download to include the cfg changes and sent Tom the new profile

He might be using an older version perhaps?

Check out CabMame it specifically addresses this problem

Note also in the Setup Wizard it tells you any extra files you need namely dc_boot.bin, dc_flash.bin, d3dx9_37.dll, msvcr80.dll

WTF? I noticed a couple of profiles have the Command entry missing. I'll send the updates to Tom. Here is the Dreamcast one I have nullDC_Win32_Release-NoTrace.exe -config ImageReader:DefaultImage="[ROMPATH]\[ROMFILE]"

I believe you can disable the splash screen from the icon in the system tray, but yeah probably better just to uninstall it.
