help with gameex new user?

[Dark0nerz13]

Hello , I am new to the scene as I have just created my own custom cab , all harware is finished, however I am now workin on th software end of the machine , and what i have noticed so far is that people have thier systems to where a custom video or logo loads up upon starting thier system, such as a custom mame video logo or game intro before gameex even starts , myquestion is simple and just very very new to all of this , and need help figuring out how to get a custom video to start up before gameex does... I am rather lost upon the subject as i have created my own custom startup video for my cab , I directed gameex from the setup wizard , in the video section to select C:\Video folder, this is where I have my custom startup video placed, however I have also tried .mov , .avi , .mpg, and .flv format , none of these have worked to have the video startp upon clicking gameex, please help???

Welcome to the forum!!!

Here is what to do.

As you probably know there is a wonderful tool to configure GameEx exactly as you like: the Setup Wizard. The option you want is somewhere in there, but since I'm dumb () and didn't find it, we'll follow another way.

1- Locate the file named GameEx.ini in your ...\GameEx\CONFIG directory

2- Open this file with notepad or another text editor

3- Search for this line: StartUpVideo=

4- After this line, add the directory in which your startup video resides.

For example:

StartUpVideo=C:\My video\GameEx Video.mpg.

Done!
