    Issues With Volume in GameEx

    in General

    Posted

    So i decided to do a nice fresh install of GameEx and for some reason the volume isnt working correctly.

    If I use my Xbone controller or Keyboard neither will turn the volume up in GameEx. When i press the volume up key it will always revert back to zero.

    The GameEx Volume icon is always on the right side of the screen as well.

    Ive attached a screenshot of what it looks like

    Any Ideas?

    Time for a new PC - Could use a second pair of eyes (or three)

    Ive seen higher end systems like the i7 8700k and GTX 1080ti (which is more grunt than me and RedDog have) struggle with RPCS3, , Xenia is the 360 emulator. I think these emulators need a lot of work for them to be optimised properly on current gen pc systems, and I would imagine quad core i5/i7 (and some ryzen builds) minimum.

    I think once they make advancements with the core of the emulators themselves, the required specs may drop, but again defo high GHZ quad core.

    I'm not too bothered about Xenia and RPCS3 because this era of console games kinda had their PC Port with many of the games available on PS3/360.

    I can run all Wii U (Cemu) games without a hitch at 1080p/60fps. The only thing that bugs me about Cemu is the caching of textures before launching a game.

    [THEME] GEX Arcade 1080p (WIP)

    Due to being on hiatus with a family member becoming ill, I have not had chance to do anything in regards to basically....... anything!

    Over the past few days I have completely revamped this theme and done a complete redraw on the Arcade Cabinet. I will upload some images as soon as I can.

    Definitely a solid build future proof build RedDog.

    The GTX 1060 isn't weak by any means, but make sure it's the 6gb Version, its a solid 1080p and upto 1440p, 60hz with very high to ultra detail on all games. VR ready etc (if you wanted to go down that route)

    A GTX 1070 is for a solid 1440p, 144hz with mostly ultra detail on games. but for the price over the 1060 its not worth it.

    I definitely feel the GTX 1060 is more than adequate for that setup.

    To put it into perspective though, I'm running an MSI Twin Frozr GTX 770 2gb and this is running some AAA titles on 1080p and some even at 1440p, paired with a i3-7100 and the GTX 1060 is at least 25% better than my GTX 770.

    So it's a safe bet and I would say stick with 1060.

    An i7-7700k coupled with a 1060 is a beast.

    No bottlenecks from that system RedDog, i7-7700k, Z270 Platform, M.2 SSD, GTX 1060 6gb, 16gb DDR4 3000mhz RAM and a solid PSU. Its a great build at a good price.

    [THEME] GEX Arcade 1080p (WIP)

    GEX Arcade 1080p for GameEx.

    Currently a work in progress.

    A few screenshots attached.

    I need to do marquees for every system. This theme will also have the ability to show marquees per game as well.

    Video logos for every option in GameEx (emulated games, multimedia etc)

    More to come soon.

    Apologies for the late reply. Good Work.

    A question though, I havent checked myself yet but through any means is it possible to adjust the size of the Artwork/Video and X/Y Axis location of Artwork/Video?

    If it is possible, I have an idea B)

    Also do Arcade Edition themes have both foreground and background layers?

    Edit - I should probably be playing around with GameEx Arcade considering it's on my MAME machine and I'm unlikely to use the HTPC component.

    GameEx Arcade Edition has a lot less options than original GameEx and is perfect for a MAME machine.

    Is it worth upgrading the following...?

    From a quick look at Newegg, $150 budget would put you squarely in the GTX 1050 range, but for $200 you get into the GTX 1060 range.

         Sucks, but I guess I pulled the trigger on my GTX 970 just in the nick of time! You can hardly find them anymore and people want 250+ for them. E-bay may do better, but then you get into used territory. I originally bought one for $300, then refunded it for fan problems and decided to wait. Got it a year later for $200. That was back in January. I wonder what happened to make them so much more expensive all of a sudden. Scarcity? It's held up to the games and the test of time well!

    I think if I do go with a 10 series it will be 1070 and above, as I have an i3-7100 at the moment and I will upgrade to a i7 7700k in the new year, so a 1070,1080 with an i7 7700k will be a nice pairing, but then again it comes down to pricing, at the moment a 1080 or 1080ti is way out of price range at the moment. Maybe I can pick up a 1070 for less from somewhere in a few weeks at a decent price. I could probably stretch to £220 and sell off my GTX 770 to put towards the cost which could take it to around the £300 mark. If I was going to go down the 170 route, I think I will stick with MSI as I like the look and if my 770 is anything to go by, the 1070 should be fairly quiet. You cant even hear a single thing from my 770 under full load.

    I mean the MSI GTX 770 Twin Frozr I have is still a great card but with the world of tech moving ahead I can tell it is lagging a little.

    He's looking in the $200 US dollar range at 150 GBP.

    I think at this point and time I'd hold off and see what the Volta lineup looks like.

    Looks good, not sure I can hold out that long though. B)

    Yeah Normal GameEx has a ton of themes.

    They can be downloaded through the Setup Wizard, Download Section on the Forums and within GameEx frontend itself.

    Also, I know what you are referring to when GameEx hangs on the Theme Picker. If you give it a few moments it will load the theme list and then you can choose one.
