Then it's life Thanks for your support

Ok, pity that it's not possible.

But I don't need this control since 90% of games there are her games and rest 10% are mine boring stuff like Victoria 2 that she won't even consider to play. And no porn stuff of course So now my start menu with disabled custom menus are looking like that: All Games Nintengo Wii (6 games) Nintendo NES (1 game) Windows games (5 games) DVD (don't need it since I have PDVD10 with WMC plugin, but don't know how to disable it ) Configuration (can survive without it and start menu and use application instead) Statistics (again I don't need this) Exit (can be selected from navigation menu on top) So you can see that I have 12 games in total. With this perspective sorting by emulator is basically not needed and reduces user experience because I (and my kid) will always select all games and choose smth from there. So in my case 'All Games only' setup will create only possible seamless experience with GameEX. I've checked once again - when i have Use Custom Menus unchecked in Custom Menus app then it's not shown, if it;s checked then it's shown mystics

Here they are ini.rar

I forgot to mention about one side effect of trick I described in first post - now when I'm selecting Exit GameEX shows confirmation dialog, but if I'm switching custom menus off then it exits directly. What is the reason for that?

Hi, I want to configure Custom Menus so that GameEX will start directly to All Games list so Start menu won't be shown at all. What i did so far is removed all items from Custom Menu app and added new item with All Games list selected from dropdown list. It comes as second item in hierarchy. Result is Start menu with one item in Start Menu - All Games (already close but still not exactly what I want ) Could you please suggest how to avoid opening Start page and go directly to All Games. Andriy

Sure. Thanks a lot for your help!

Thanks for the tip, now it's fine Andriy

I've finally unlocked my GameEx so we can proceed with menu tweaking And also I got one more issue - is it possible to disable ESC key when I'm running PC games? In most of the games ESC goes to menu, but in my case game is closed right after menu is shown. Andriy

Allright, I've played around with application and figured out how to show game art and mount images in daemon tool with *.bat files. Application itself is really great as gaming frontend so I'll donate and stick with it. As a next step I want to remove virtual clonedrive since I already have Daemon tool installed. Could you please tell me what is the purpose of having it preinstalled and what will happen if I'll uninstall it? In my opinion it's not needed because PC games are mounted in Daemon tool through *.bat files and Gamecube games are mounted by Dolphin (at least I think so ). So would it be safe to remove it or I'll mess things up and will be doomed to go through all configs again And another thing is removing start menu. I've played around with UI and strongly decided to remove it (sorry ). Could you please give me a tip in what way custom menu should be made in order to remove it? Thanks, Andriy

Yes, looks like I'll go that way. Could you please also suggest something for my questions 3-5 Andriy

I tried to make custom menu and got the note that this feature is only available in registered version So now circle is closed - i can't buy application before trying it and at same time can't try it So could you please tell me is it really possible to remove start page and open gameex directly in all games list? It's quite important feature for me because i will never have more than 30 games alltogether, so start menu is unnecessary for me.

I did one more user account for trial needs and started to play around with custom menus, but i didn't really understood what account i'm actually changing and does changes are actually applying for example I removed Home Page menu from Custom Menu editor, but nothing has been changed. Is there some manual about custom menus creation? Could you please also tell me how to back up my current setup and roll back to it after i'll mess everything up? Andriy

Thanks for prompt reply. I'll play around with custom menus, let's see how fast i'll start shouting for help Regarding thumbnails - I was thinking to make something similar to first screenshot from here http://www.mediabrowser.tv/gallery (with usual suspects cover). I'm using media browser as movie frontend, so it would be really great to have some kind of consistency if it is possible. Andriy

Hello! I've just installed GameEX to use it in W7MC as gaming frontend for Dolphin, VirtuaNES and PC games (to make it easier for my kid). All settings are in place and solution is pretty much working, but I gut stuck with couple if issues that i need to clarify. So could you please help me with following questions: 1. Is it possible to make All Games view as only view in GameEX, meaning that GameEX will show only this view instead of main view when I'm opening it and will go back to Media Center when GameEX is closed? RESOLVED - 2. Is it possible to make game thumbnails bigger and have something similar to thumbnail strip in Media Browser - I believe it will look really cool? I saw the are quite many themes that might do the trick, but honestly I'm a bit afraid to install them to not mess things up after such a long setup RESOLVED - 3. I already have Daemon tool on my PC. Is it possible to make GameEx work with it instead of native app that was installed out-of-the-box? Having 2 different disk emulators on same PS is too much RESOLVED - 4. Another problem is automatic disk mounting in Daemon tool for PC games. I found one script on the forum that does the trick, but it uses Autoit tool and I don't really like an idea to have another resident application in memory (I already have too many). I don't need ESC functionality to exit PC games, normal exit procedure should be fine, so probably there is a way to do it without AutoIt? RESOLVED - 5. And there's one more thing that came to my mind. All preinstalled demos had really nice video backgrounds, but all my Gamecube roms are having black background and gray squares instead of thumbnails. Is it possible to fetch thumbs/video backdrops from some web service (lime themoviedb.org for movies) or i need to find these things manually? I assume these topics were already described in this forum but I wasn't able to find the answers and will be really grateful if you will explain me these issues or give some links to related materials. Thank you, Andriy
