Configuration options for Game Extender

[PlumberOfDeath]

Are there options to Game Extender as to what to display as there are with Marquee Magician? If so, can you point me at this documentation?

Thanks in advance.

You can point it at any directory your artwork is in (like marquees, snaps, etc) and they display as long as you have the sane name as the games file name. You can also enter a static image to display all the time. Or you can run cpwizard and show controls on it.

I'm just getting black screen. Even on games that have marquees visible in the gameex menu, game extender is pointed to the marquee folder but I still get nada. What should I be looking at in the log.txt or set up to figure this out?

Do you have it enabled in the wizard? I use my cab's IP and port 6960 to display it. So in game extender viewer, you would prob do something like this:

192.168.1.5:8383

The first block is your IP (change it based on your setup) and I think 8383 is the default port GameEx uses unless you change it yourself.

You may also need to make a firewall exception.

I have it on the default 127. IP but since it's all on the same system I didn't think the IP address would be nescessary. It's all pointed to a folder on the drive gameex is installed on. But I'll try that when I get home tonight.

It matters. The display uses an intranet AFAIK.

Remember the saying... there is no place like 127.0.0.1!
