That was a typo, I meant PlugInLCD, I'm working on two projects at the same time and getting confused lol. So can you post those things I asked for? I corrected the typos.

Do you mean the video preview starts playing the preview some time into the video, whilst in the new multimedia menu the video preview plays from the start. I'm guessing that's what sbaby meant. I havn't had a look at the new feature yet though.

Could you post your PlugInLCD.log and PlugInLCD.ini. Also the Events and Profiles folders could help, if you could put them into a zip and post it here. BTW Do you have flat menu's enabled in GameEx?

Could you try this exe to see if it solves the joystick issues. I didn't have time to look at the resolution problem yet. This is just an exe replacement.

Can you tell me the names of the JOYCODE_* in Mame for the controls that don't work in CPWizard. The joysticks I use for testing may not have the axis you need on your psx joysticks. If you can tell me the names used in Mame it should help me figure out whats missing. I may need to aquire the joysticks again after pausing Mame. I will keep that in mind. The volume control is designed for the master fader. I don't really have any intention on changing that. Hmm I have a feeling I still have to put a delay in there to allow for the resolution change. That screenshot shows that CPWizard is displaying at 640x480 which probably means it's showing before the PC has changed back to 1024x768. I'm guessing you don't have this problem if you run your desktop at the same resolution as Mame?

There were a few minor bugs that I believe are fixed now. Can you try 2.35. If it still doesn't work can you PM and I'll see if we can get in contact via e-mail as it may take a few trys before it's working again. If worse comes to worse I will just have to go back to my original CommIO code.

Hey Tom I noticed after installing a new version of GameEx it overwrites the PluginLCD.dll to an older version. Maybe you could change the isi to only overwrite newer files in the PLUGIN folder?

I know it's hard without any sort of instructions, so what I'll do is post some screenshots of how I set up my RGB LED's in the Plugin. 1. First you setup the LED Input Maps, you will need to select LEDWiz for each control and assign each Red, Green and Blue output on the LEDWiz hardware. Then you need to assign your keycodes. 2. Here I show my player 2 controls and as you can see I have two LEDWiz, the second one (Id 2) is used on player 2. 3. Finally you need to setup a profile for GameEx->Default. This is what your panel should look like in it's default state.

Can you make sure you don't have any other LCD device enabled in the plugin. Also post your PluginLCD.ini file from PLUGINS\PluginLCD. It does make it difficult for me to test when I don't own any LCD or LED signs, and this version of the plugin has changed to use the .NET 2.0 Com Port namespace instead of the Com Port stuff I had written previously. The way I have been testing this is to use a program called Port Mon to see if the plugin is outputting the correct data. Here is the old PluginLCD, so if you can backup the current one, then overwrite it with this one then check if it works. At least then we will be able to tell if it's the new Com Port stuff I'm using that is causing the problem or not. Old_PlugInLCD.zip

Version 1.03 Released - Fixed joystick detection bug, GS path bug, added DirectInput dll to setup sbaby: Hopefully that solves the joystick problem, if you can test this new version and get back to me. You will have to add JOYCODE's for both joysticks. bkenobi: I did add all those extra joycodes you wanted, but need that tested when you get some time

Not sure why you think you need to do the game by game thing. It's really not necessary with a ctrlr file. If you don't have an individual game profile, you should make one for GameEx->Default and possibly one for each [Emulator]->Default. If it doesn't have a game profile it should revert back to these. A GameEx->Default profile is all you really need to have to fall back on. No Daphne support as of yet. I have to talk to Tom about how this works in GameEx before I can add it to the plugin.

There is a pinned topic now, so it would be great to see some people post some video's of their cabs running GameEx.

I don't see any JOYCODE's in there. You have to go to Edit->Options->Input tab, then use the "..." button to add JOYCODE's. You will need to press the button or whatever on your joystick to put the code in there. I'm wondering how Joystick 2 was partially working at all without those codes in there.

I had no problem with it. Maybe you need to add the torrent again and point it to your already downloaded file. It should then check the integrity and download any damaged parts.

Big thanks to SpyDIRmaN and his sister!! My bucking magnets are here. Now I just have to figure out which way to put them on my speakers. I guess reverse polarity means I need to glue them on. Thanks again!

Can you please post your CPWizard.log Can you please post your CPWizard.ini. I'll check out the GS path bug. The pause remaining is normal. Ahh glad the custom Mame resolutions works

Hey mate no need to create cfg's for each neogeo game. All you have to do is use a ctrlr file and put an entry in for neogeo and it will light them correctly (I have it working this way on my cab) Read about it here Attached are the Visual Pinball configs I use PinballConfigs.zip

I think it would be worth finding out how to run a command line tool from GameEx without having to turn off UAC. There are several things you could try. - You can set a program to "Run as Administrator" by right clicking on it, Properties->Advanced->check Run as Administrator. I'm not sure if this only effects a shortcut to the program or not, but would be interesting to try this first as it seems to be the easiest way to do it. - Perhaps you can change the "Integrity Level" of the GameEx folder and/or where XPAdder is located. There is a program called chml that might help with that. - Another way could be to try to the Runas commandline app that will run something under a different login / trustlevel. I am curious about this myself as I will be getting Vista some time in the future.

Sure mate, I'd be happy to take that off your hands if you got no use for it PM me if your still up for it.

Version 1.34 Released Okay should be fixed now lol Can you please try this new version. Use P1_TRACKBALL and P2_TRACKBALL set them to Single and put to Id 1, Port 31 and Id 2 Port 32 respectively. Set them both to the same keycode. That should do it.

Version 2.33 Released - Fixed string[] bug (alexdog69) - Fixed check boxes not working in Events tab (alexdog69) Circo: Bad news mate Hope you get your PC running again before XMas!

My plugin allows you to have mouse codes assigned to controls, infact those string[] entries bug you posted were supposed to be those codes. I've fixed that now and will release a new version soon. Maybe that will fix this problem? Also do you have mouse enabled in Mame.ini or through command line?

Hehe I was waiting for Randy to release the "external app support" he was talking about a while ago. Never seemed to come to anything, so this is a good solution in the mean time, Cheers
