The invalid steam path would only be an issue if you have steam enabled.

Having a NAS server is great btw. Nas4Free has been good to me so far, over 4 months of uptime and not a hiccup. :-) There's lots of stuff available here as well, including Transmission with a nice web interface, more than a few other additions and quite a few users who add things all the time, not to mention it's a portable OS if you choose to go that route.

I guess it doesn't matter if it's mc2 or mc lite, as that's probably gonna be the same in either case, but I'll fix mc2 first for you so it works. Stay tuned. :-)

Ok cool. Just to make sure can you see if it's still am issue with the plugin disabled? Or do your neo geo games not run when using that mame build? I'm pretty sure I need to add a block of code to parse the GameEx ini and add that option to the command line if the screen saver is running and that feature is set, but I want to be positive it's something I did.

1.2.4u3 is out there, if one were so inclined as to play with the new beta. This new revision adds the following: New option to add custom fonts to your themes This option was in the XML already but wasn't added as a feature until now. You can see the XML layout here if you wanted to add your custom TTF font to the theme you're using.Bug fixed where your settings weren't being saved in the new tool strip options I missed it before, but I forgot to add the handlers to the routines that save your options when I condensed the options in an earlier beta. My bad!Added options to disable Xpadder Co-Op and Mame Commander Lite Co-Op In addition to disabling plugin co-op altogether, you can now specify the particular plugin you want to disable co-op mode for, allowing you to utilize only the features you need.Added an About form Nothing flashy, just some info about the plugin and a link to the project page.Added further compatability with Steam Since GameEx handles the information passed when Steam is run a bit differently, the visualizer has been improved to show unique data for games played when Steam is runningTuning up on the configuration form The emulator list is now sorted alphabetically, and the emulator list now includes custom options for Steam, GameBase, and GameEx Arcade.Lots of backend work on the new Co-Op class The code I wrote now detects my plugins and their run state from the GameEx ini, instead of just scanning the plugin folder for DLL's. This means that none of the features will attempt to run if you have the plugin disabled but it's still in the plugins folder.The MegaMAME Theme was updated to include a new custom fontThis is probably going to wind up the major release, but I put out a beta so some of ya can help test all the new features. I'm pretty confident there are no bugs, but you can never be too sure. All I ask is that you post a debug log if you hit a snag somewhere. Download it from here, or get it from the first post.

Here's the new Steam pages, although they won't be supported until a future GameEx update:

Or run it in windowed mode instead of full screen. ;-)

When my wife and I pulled out of Facebook, it was a great feeling. I think it's funny to see the reaction I get from people when they ask if they can add me and I tell them I don't use it. Is it really that hard to believe that I don't want to throw my personal info on the web fir the world to see? :-) GameEx forum is as close as I'll ever get to sharing anything personal. :-)

This may be an issue due to bypassing the initial GameEx config. You using mc2 or mc lite? I can fix this bug.

Side note: I'm more surprised that Tom finds it a rarity that people don't use Facebook. I don't think any of the staff does... Null for sure, Drac doesn't afaik, I don't, and I don't think HK does either? Not sure about Tempest or KRC, but contrary to popular belief I don't want to make it easy for the government to spy on me, or for naughty people to be able to easily steal my identity. I also don't care what you had for lunch today, or where you're going to get hammered after your crappy day at work. If I wanted to talk to ya, I'll call you. If I didn't know you that well before, why would I add you to my friends? I guess that's the hermit in me talking though. :-) On topic: I'd way rather have the great people that are here now, all of who live and appreciate this marvelous FE, and are so happy to give back to the people that gave of themselves, than to be widely popular, hugely unappreciated, and widely criticized for not being another HS clone. I love this community for what it is, not for what it could be if we push harder to sell it to the masses. :-)

Word, Drac. Word, nullP. And word stig. You guys nailed it. :-)

Man humble bundle is AWESOME! I pretty much love this place, cheap games for pennies!!

Unzip it with winrar. Then rezip them by selecting them all, selecting "archive files"in the right click menu, and going to the advanced tab in winrar, check "add each file to its own archive".

Nothing slated, sorry. There may be something else in the future, but it was a lot of work for what little the response was and unfortunately it won't be annual unless we do it for fun instead of prizes.

Yeah no doubt! He got what he deserved, that's for sure. After he sliced up ol' what's his name, my kids said "Oh no! Who's gonna give meaningful speeches now?" Ha!

Unfortunately not, sorry. :-(

Nah that was vague, and if you think it was a spoiler you obviously didn't see the show.

Unbelievable mid season finale of the walking dead! I'm absolutely crushed and pleased with the show, and I can't wait until it picks up again in February. Anyone else see it?

No you need the ttf file in the theme directory, and you need to specify it in the theme.xml that you're using. Custom fonts are a theme specific modification.

Ahh it wasn't as hard as I thought. The next version will add suport for regular true type fonts. The font variable has been available in the theme XML for some time now, I just had to change the way sone things work. I think I got it going though, but I want to run some more tests. Here's a couple samples:

Ha! Don't be sorry. It's on the list. :-)

Yes eventually, it's a lot of work so I've been putting it off, but I will certainly add that feature in sometime on down the line. :-)

I put out a beta for you to play with if you choose... I'm working on some new features and I'm not ready to put it out yet. But I'm in a sharing mood, so what the hell. Here's some of what's coming in the next version of Game Info: Cleaned up the config screen a lot!Options moved off the screen onto the menu bar to make it less overwhelmingLots of code optimizations and a couple bug fixes... Nothing major, but every little bit makes a difference! This fixes the visualizer not clearing labels properly if there is no data foundFinished my Plugin Co-Op system to make all my plugins play nice together, which can still be disabled in the config menuAdded a new icon window to the visualizer to display icons in the following order:If Plugin Co-Op is turned on, this is an Xpadder indicator. If you use the Xpadder plugin and it is enabled, you will see this icon when Xpadder is running for the game you're playing: If you have it disabled for that emulator or game, you'll see this one: If it's a MAME game, and it's eligible for the hi-score comp, you'll see this icon: If you have the game in your favorites, you'll see this icon: If you haven't played the game before, you'll see this icon: More tune-ups to make the plugin more stable over long periodsLots of code tuning on the Game Info Extender Viewer to make it cleanerFixed a couple lingering bugs in the HiScore Viewer windowPlugin Co-Op Mode will now take action accordingly for MAME games that you have changed settings for in MAME Commander Lite if it's enabled and runningWho knows what else that I probably forgot about already. Here's a shot of the new icon on a game I disabled Xpadder in the plugin for specifically (Keep in mind you can disable Co-Op Mode if you don't want to see this on your GI banner, or you don't care about the extra fluff): If you play with it, let me know if you spot any bugs. It would also be helpful if you gave me a Debug Mode log, as that log is much more extensive. Test it out if ya like: Download Here

Update to 1.1.7 to fix some serious bugs. :'(

Why not just write a script to hide it and show it?
