Yes, topic can be closed. My GameEx version was always up-to-date but I was using a legacy executable for the setup. Maybe a future version of GameEx could make sure old files are deleted during update?

Hi all, many thanks again. I have attached the log file. So in the meantime I think I was able to solve this question: since I have been using GameEx for approx. 5 years now it seems that I was always using the (obsolete) GameEx Setup application (the GameExConfig.exe)...the executable has the mod date: 2011-03-20..wow! I will use now the SetupWizard.exe (in the post shown by Draco), which is slightly newer: 2016-11-17 :-) Thanks again for your support! Kind regards, Thomas log.txt

Thanks for all your answers. When I am using the GameExConfig.exe editor I have a limit of 62 emulators. If I can simply add more by editing the config manually it'll be fine.

Hi everyone, I would like to ask if it's possible to increase the number of available Emulator slots in Gameex from 62 to at least 99. Reason is that I love testing many emulators (for most of them I have just a couple of roms) and I don't want to override the settings again when checking out a new one. Many thanks and kind regards, Thomas

Hi, I am currently trying to change the in Game Key (to e.g. view manuals while playing) from key F10 to F11. I have set the option in "Input Settings" -> "In Game Key" to value 87, but it is still F10... Any ways to change this properly? Thanks and best regards, Sprudel

Yes, absolutely right...I really prefer using a Gameex snapshot feature instead of the one inside an emulator. Example: For Dos Games I use a simple script which loads a configuration within D-Fend, the famous Dosbox GUI. With D-Fend I could also create screenshots while in game but this has one big drawback for me: The screenshot files does not match with the game in Gameex, so the screenshot won't be displayed automatically and I have to rename it. So as nullPointer already said this should become a new feature request...and concerning the behaviour how to handle a situation when a screenshot for the game already exists I would suggest to have another Gameex Config option for this as well (Overwrite existing screenshot: Yes/No, if no, create a filename with index as suffix, e.g. _002 like in D-Fend).

Thanks for your fast reply.. Yes, this is exactly what I mean. And yes, I know the last option with the ESC key of the "Create Snaps" options. This is exactly what I want but only for a single game. At the moment, one game is started and I can press ESC to take a snap. But when I finish the game (or depending on the emulator pressing the ESC key will also quit it) Gameex will start the next game in the list. This is fantastic if you want to take snaps for all games. So my question was if its possible to take just one snap for a single game (maybe even during an ordinary game session instead of using the Create Snaps option). Thanks again. Rgds, Sprudel

Hi there, I was wondering if it is possible to create an ingame screenshot similar to the "Create snaps" function which will go through each game in the list? Thanks in advance. Rgds, Sprudel

Hi all! I was just wondering if it is possible to have multiple folders for the startup videos? I tried to change my Gameex.ini like this: StartUpVideo=D:\Emulator\Multi\GameEx\DEMO\Videos;D:\Emulator\Mame\movies But in this case, no startup movie was shown. Thanks & Best regards, Sprudel

@Draco: Thanks for the hint, I will do this next time like this. @Tom: Thanks a lot for the quick fix!

Hi! I just started Gameex after one week and I got the message to download an update (11.83). After restarting Gameex all my Gamebase database didn't load anymore. In the log file I got for all Gamebase databases I have the message "Not Restoring Emulator Database From Cache". I also tried to delete the cached files and restarted...nothing helped. Is this maybe a bug with the latest version? According to the changelog some logic concerning database loading has been changed. Thanks a lot in advance. Sprudel

Ok, thanks guys for your answers. So I will just create a copy of the Access db of Gamebase and delete all non-playable games in there...so no chance for Gameex to display them ;-)

Hi all! Another Gamebase issue: currently Gameex shows all the games available in the Gamebase. Maybe it would be better to show only the playable games. There are some gamebase packs around which include less playable games than registered games in the database. What could I do? Thanks in advance. Sprudel

Ok, maybe no chance to fix this currently. Just for everybody who is interested: I had to change the keymapping in WinVice not to map the ESC key with RUN/STOP (I used End key instead).

Hi all! Just wondering if there is any chance to get a D-Fend (great fronted for DOSBOX emulator) integration like Gamebase within Gameex? Thanks a lot in advance. Best regards, Tom
