Thanks Everyone. Had to start off with that, been working on my sorta 1st cab (Helped a friend with a real basic box a few years back) and was trying out about 10 different front ends till I found GameEx. There was one or two FEs that were similar in quality/feature but i am absolutely amazed with how many questions that i have bumped into that were already answered with just a few clicks around here So it looks like this is home for me and my new favorite project. Just had a quick question about control setup/issues I am bumping into (Ive probably looked right past the answers, but bear with me) I am looking to run MAME and a few select emulators so I can stop digging systems out of the closet (For some reason i'm not allowed to have 15 systems setup at once even down here in the basement) I am running an X-Arcade and 2x Xbox for windows for controllers. Trying to figure out 2 things : 1- Where can i set the 2x Controllers for my 3P/4P for MAME and 2- Whats the easiest way to make my X-Arcade NOT go to my file menu tab in WinKawaks/nullDC (By far the most confusing thing i have run into so far) Thanks in advance, Cnop
