Hey Tom sorry for being unclear. Yes it is an animation in the middle of the page, its those 7 white/grey boxes that wave across. I started noticing it before this last update (I think I haddn't updated in a while before that ) Here's my log: 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: GameEx: Version 5.79: Starting Log 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Operating System Platform: Win32NT 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Operating System Name: Windows XP 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Operating System Version: 5.1.2600 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Checking for versions of .net Framework installed 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: .net Framework 1.1 Installed 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Checking Registration 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Running Randomize() 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Initialising Video/MNG DLL's 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Running Misc startup tasks 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Setting Menu types 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Opening Configuration File 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Getting Configuration Values 20:54:46.1 3/10/2006: Using Theme: Default -

For the past two builds after the loading bar was put in, i've had this glitch where once gameex starts (after loading and nag screen) the load bar is still apparent, however it quickly glitches in and out, this happens for mostly all screens until I backup one screen and it disappears for the rest of the sesion. I just upgraded to 5.79 hoping it would fix, but it's still there. Any ideas?

are you linking gameex to zsnes binary or a zsnes command line?

good one!

In gameex directory. Then in config have it "Also Run:" [apppath]\vpauto.exe

Whenever I use the tags the Jukebox icon disappears in gameex. Running 5.77

http://www.allgame.com/ If system/game info is needed for this project. Lots of info. Apparently they have a game scrapper that will let you pull everything right off the site.

make sure that your emulators "launch in fullscreen" at the correct resolution when a rom is loaded, good luck -Matt

In the configuration have you looked through the "Text/Language" pages? I forget if that label is changable but I know quite a few of them are. Good luck! -Matt
