GameExtender Viewer

[TalkingBull]

I am having trouble getting this to work and I am not sure what the problem is... I believe it has to do with my network but I am not sure. Here is what I have:

192.168.2.136 - My MAME machine running GameEx

192.168.2.2 - My computer I want to run the viewer on

I also have my true IP Address. I have tried running different IP's in both the viewer and the extender part of the config but I can't get anything to work at all. Any configs on this would be helpful.

I tried running the viewer on my second computer and also I tried to do it in a web browser (Firefox and Explorer) but I can't connect to anything with any variance of settings.

On your mame machine, open network connections, go to your network card, click the support tab and verify the IP address is 192.168.2.136 if not then correct.

In a web browser you should access the page like this http://192.168.2.136:8383

If your running a Firewall on your MAME machine, and are accessing from a different PC, yourll need to allow the port, default 8383.

It could also be that something else is using that port, so you can change it if needbe.

Note the Viewer had bugs in the 5.37 which meant you could only connect to 127.0.0.1

To get started to just be sure GameExtender is running. Run it on 127.0.0.1, run gameex in a window and load http://127.0.0.1:8383 on the same machine.

GameExtender also will not work unless your using a registered version.

Hope this helps. Let us know how you get on,
