Congrats RedDog! Welcome to the easiest moderation gig you'll ever have! The people are great and the staff is always here for you if you need help getting your bearings! Welcome to the family!!

This application has been decomissioned. Check out the rebooted version here! http://www.gameex.info/forums/topic/17332-application-launcher-x

Launcher-X -1.0.3- What is it? A simple EXE that is made to be launched instead of GameEx or PinballX on Windows startup for folks that don't use Instant Sheller and still use their dedicated gaming machine as a PC from time to time. There are some customizable features, you can launch setup apps from within it, and it supports some command line arguments. How do I use it? Click on the EXE, set it to launch on startup or set a command line to run. WINDOWS 7-10 USERS: Couldn't be easier to get it going! Simply make a shortcut to Launcher-X and drop it in the START>Startup folder and the EXE will launch after Windows boots up. You can also specify command-line arguments like so: LauncherX.exe -timer 60 -gameexLauncherX.exe -timer 30 -pinballx -Timer {value} Set the value to whatever you'd like for the timer to be in seconds. -GameEx Launch GameEx directly. -PinballX Launch PinballX directly. -Reset Rest all user-defined settings back to their original state. -Debug Toggle debug mode. What does it do? The EXE launches GameEx or PinballX after a user defined number of seconds, or aborts if EXIT is pressed. Switch between either front-end by pressing the logo button, and the launcher will remember your choice next time you boot it up. You can set it to launch in GameEx Login mode, GameEx Lite, PinballX Lite or many of the setup utilities included in GameEx/PinballX (ie Setup Wizard, Plugin/Repository Manager, and the PinballX Game Manager) and returns you to the timer screen afterwards. There is also a pause button next to the progress bar if you have an update, something you want to do quick, or your system is slower than normal to load and you need a little extra time. Wow that's super easy! What if I find a bug? Report it here! Any questions? Ask away. Feel free to offer suggestions on how I can make it better. Download it from the GameEx Community Download Portal! NOTES: GameExLaunch is dead. Long live GameExLaunch! This is a complete reboot of that app. I've removed the download links and would appreesh if anyone who was using the old version would switch to this nicer, cleaner, prettier, more efficient version. Shouts to Draco1962 for the header logo and the suggestions. CHANGELOG:

It used to, I noticed mine goes to English when it should be Custom. Tom will need to look at that, it's a bug.

I believe after 255 you need to manually add them to the XML due to a limitation with Game Manager. Tom would know better than I would but I feel like this had been documented somewhere.

More than 200 >= 255?

Happy birthday Stigz!!! Hope you have a great one!

To be fair, it's only about 3-5 seconds on my machine, but I think it's probably the Webservice response slowing it down which probably doesn't offer much that can be done.

flocke28: This should take care of it. Please let me know if you continue to have issues. Thanks! LCDSmartie-GameEx_Plugin.zip

I can look at it if you still have the SC and don't have the time, Tom. I'm sure it's the registry changes, I had a similar issue with my plugins.

You have to point to the background you want to use in the emulator settings, the name shouldn't matter unless you changed any of them. If you did, there are two images, the base image and the foreground image.they both need to be named the same, except the foreground image needs the file name appended with _foreground

Jahhhhh! Gonna be a great year!! Can't wait for evo!! My resolution is to play more this year and not work so hard!!!

Thanks everyone!

I've never did anything to GameStop. It's an obvious scam. My kids always want to trade in their games. Not in my house! :-)

Happy holidays RedDog!!! ...and the rest of youse guys too I suppose! Lol!

Happy birthday Ray! #GettinSomePuddinOnYerBday

Take it one step further and have your bat file copy the ini over for each setup where only the one emulator is set up. Or maybe that won't work for you, I'm not grasping the intent here.

ALL OF THEM? Are you daft? Or just kickstarting an acting career?

Lolol! Awesome!!!

Are you using the latest version of Daemon Tools? You need it for the SCSI driver.

I've never tried on GameEx specifically but have done it for GameExtender, but yeah, you can probably grab the app handle and force it to minimize. I do something similar to force GameEx back into focus after Xpadder launches and steals focus from GameEx. Kinda. It's a little more complicated than that though. Google Windows API: ShowWindow to get started. I may be able to provide a code snippet after work.

Just my 2c, but being pissy with people isn't gonna fix it any faster. Please keep your posts a little more constructive. Draco was trying to help you. Tom asked you a question, can you please verify you tried his suggestions? I have it on a VM and my keyboard works fine.

You can't do that without d3d. GameEx isn't a form. You basically need to inject your rendering into the d3d buffer. It's not easy, and to be honest I gave up on the instant messaging plugin I did because of it even though it's fully functional aside from that detail. It's definitely possible (Steam does it for PC games), it's just way too advanced for me to learn quickly. Sorry, but that's all I can tell ya on that.

I don't mind DTools, latest version on W10 works fine for me, SCSI and all.
