Hello, This morning I updated my cabinet to the latest version of GameEx. before i've been running GameEx 10.19 for many many months without issues. Since I updated, every time I launch a game, I get a Hitotext crash. What should I try to fix that? thanks EDIT: just did some more test and it's worse than only the hitotext issue. GameEx will freeze upon selecting some mame game from the favorite list and I need to turn off the power on the cabinet.

Hello I have two U360 sticks on my CP. So I am using xpadder with Gameex to map keys to the sticks for navigation. for those who are using xpadder, do you keep it running when lauching mame? can it interfere with mame usage of joysticks? currently I am unloading it with with the gameex option to run a program before lauching mame and I am loading it again after mame finished running. Sometimes I seems to loose joystick (xpadder) input in gameex. wondering if that can be the cause and how other people are using xpadder thanks!

Ok, I got it to work. Have to use the "start" command to have the command line window to show up. so the process is: set "show desktop" to yes set the path to: C:\windows\system32 set the command to: start cmd.exe /C "C:\scripts\my script.cmd" cheers!

I did some more troubleshooting last night. Gameex will start .cmd scripts. However, the command line window will not show up. On my PC with dual monitor, I put a process monitor on the second window and I can see that GameEx is spawing the process but it doesnt show up on the desktop nor in the task manager applications list. is there a way to have the window showing so I can see what the script is doing? (again, showdesktop is set to yes)

Hello I have created a few command line scripts to manage my cabinet (update roms from a network share, update mame, etc). I am trying to add them to the external applications menu but it doesnt work. when lauching a script (from the "More program" menu) I see the desktop appear but the script doesnt execute. I have enabled "show desktop" to yes in gamex configuration. my scripts are in "C:\scripts" so this is what I set in the path of the external application. For the application I tried a few things. The first thing I tried is just the script name ie: "mameupdate.cmd" and I also tried to launch the command line with the script as a parameters ie: "c:\windows\system32\cmd.exe /C mameupdate.cmd". both didnt work. I can run the scripts manually with both method. is there anything I am missing in my gameex config? thanks all
