[NEWS] GameEx 11.90

[Tom Speirs]

This release brings a brand new GameEx Live page. Now based on the gamer tags. In addition all gamer tags now feature their own unique hosted page and are linkable. To get updated HTML code just regrab your tag from the site.

This release should also fix the issue with displaying the wrong image in the tags.

Ben Baker added the missing MAME data file settings to the Setup Wizard.

One little thing I would like, is to have separate video paths and snap paths for emulators. That way my card can display snaps for games. Currently I only have videos so whenever I run a game, the gamercard never shows any pics. Would also be good if we could prioritize the order which artwork is displayed on GameEx. Currently I think it's like "snaps/videos>titles>boxes>others". I personally like to have videos and boxes when browsing, so to do that, I have to discard titles completely, but I'd like to also have them there. Unless we can prioritize what is shown when browsing, I can't do that.

Other than that, always love some new features/updates, so thanks! I think GameEx may be on to something with this whole gamercard thing and GameEx live

PS: Isn't it time for a new default modern theme for gameex?

EDIT: Also, I'd like a Tag change from "Keno" to "DJoneK" which is the nick I use pretty much everywhere. Keno is my 90s nick

Another great update.

Any chance of a theme option in the future for seperate foregrounds being used for each system or game. Using a theme like Draco1962's Space Invaders or Joust, One could use a static background and have a different forground images for each system or individual game. With all the graphic talent we have in our community, I could see alot of great foregrounds being made reflecting each individual game or system. I think this option would make for themes that would go way beyond any frontend currently available.
