  1. Is there any plans on having a 2013 or 2014 theme competiton? I would like to see what some people come up with.
  2. My problem is that I hate windows. I would really hate to dualboot just for the purpose of gameex. oh well I may have too
  3. Are you saying that GameEx will not run in virtualbox?
  4. Here is the error log. I just installed windows 7 in a linux host Virtualbox setup. Thanks for any help gameex_error.txt
  5. Ok, so I updated gameex version and it now loads. Tom if ok with you, I would like to use this thread to post any other problem I encounter. Then once it works, I would create a blog post of another post that gives step by step on how to install and configure
  6. So I setup the game extender server and from another computer I am going to the webpage but its blinking like crazy. Any thoughts on what I need to do to get it to work? I am not sure the gameexternder has its own log. Thanks Running on Windows 7 64 bit, 8 GB of ram
  7. So I am trying to get GameEx to install in Linux and when the installer comes up, it is telling me that I need to install MAC 2.8. What is this app so I can try to get this to work? Thanks.
  8. Interesting, I do not see where my mame.ini file is. Wonder why I do not have one. Could it be cause I am using gameex?
  9. So there are 5 files in there. hotrod,hotrodse,scorpionxg,slikstik, and xarcade. Looking in them all I am not seeing one that match what CPWizard is showing for the buttons. Am I confused on what cpwizard is using to know what keyboard keys go with which button?
  10. I am wondering if mame stores it in some type of database.
  11. How do I know which ctrlr is being used? I have tried to match my buttons up to mame and when I change the keycodes, blue lines come to point to other buttons. Thoughts
  12. So GameEx is working great but I am curious on where the favorites are being stored? In the setup I set the Favorites file location but the file is 0kb. I attached my GameEx. Log file has nothing about favorites. Let me know if you want me to post that as well. Thanks GameEx.ini Arcade Arcade (MAME).ini
  13. I think I am ready at this point to build my own theme and wonder how I can preview my theme while creating it? Do I have to open gameex and check it or is there another way? Thanks
  14. I would just think it would be cool if I had a friend over and he asked me, oh do you have this game or that, I could pull up a webpage and show him. I think in the data folder I saw something like a gamelist but unsure.
  15. I would like to write a plugin that pulls the games that GameEx has and put them in xml format. My main object is to write a hook that a website can pull data from gameex to build on your own mame site. Also I would like to write something so I could write a mobile application to launch games. I am thinking of so many ideas on what I could do once I could get a web interface to interact with GameEX. Thoughts
  16. I would like to revive this thread as I have an idea on a nice plugin that I would love to develop. Has any further thought about creating something about this?
  17. Ok, I figured it out. In the gameex folder there is a download utility app. Open that up and you can test your login. So glad when I can answer my own questions
  18. Also will it start to download when I start a game or when gameex starts?
  19. I was thinking it may be nice to have a test button on that setup page to check that your credentials are working. Thats all.
  20. Please post log and ini file so people can see if there are some errors
  21. Is there a way to check that gameex has logged in successfully to emumovies?
  22. Oh ok, yeah I do not need to do that. Thanks
  23. I noticed while installing gameex again that there is an option to use the lite version of media center. What is this for and or why would I do this?
  24. I have not ran anything on it since I really do not go to any sites that are trouble. Now that I am all setup with how to use the GameEx and rom sets. It was time to reformat the machine. So now begins the debate on if I should run one or not. I think I will though
  25. I was reading about the Microsoft one and was wondering if its a pain and constantly bothers you. Maybe I will download that one and give it a shot
