Two questions

[Dan_Dan_91_07]

1) Following yesterday's posts about Zinc, I have started to think about getting GameEx to run it again. The answer to my question however, will determine whether this is a viable option for me or not. The question being - do you need to use the D3D renderer, or will the OpenGL renderer be okay? The reason being, many games run terribly slow with the D3D one, and because of this, I would prefer to carry on launching ZincGUI from the additional programs menu, if I couldn't use the OpenGL renderer.

2)My websites, additional programs and the weather utility, are all listed together. I would like to organise there order in the list however, is this possible? If I could only get them to display in alphabetical order, it would be great BTW.

I hope I haven't been asking too many questions lately. They will slow down dramatically in the near future - promise!

For #1: you need to use D3D for native integration, sorry.

For #2: Custom menus may be what you're looking for here.

Thanks for your quick response! (Again lol)

1) Is that for both, "run instead of mame" & setting it up as an additional emulator?

2) Thanks, I will look into that soon.

Dan - What part of the issue are you bumping?

The Zinc issue, I wasn't sure what exactly Adultery meant and I am wondering -

"1) Is that for both, "run instead of mame" & setting it up as an additional emulator?"

Thanks

A friendly reminder that I am still uncertain about my question & that I would like to know please.

Yes, for both, use D3D.

Just a side note, try using ZiNcCab for a smoother emulation. AND, if you have a dual core or higher you can just use MAME .143 to play ZN1 and ZN2 games. Some games play better now with MAME then in ZiNc.

Not to mention it is soooooooo much easier to configure the controls in MAME for these games!

What what WHAT!!! I didn't realize this had been incorporated. I guess I'll have to step up and check this out. Still running an old AthlonXP in the cab, but a dual core isn't that spendy and would simplify things quite a bit. I assume Model2 is still better on a separate emulator?
