[RESOLVED] GameEx 12.71 stops responding when loading

[Draco1962]

The dbcachce and other files with cache in the file name. Sometimes they can become corrupt, and my thought is that, since we are dealing with a new DB software, clearing the cache files may be of some help to a few affected.

[Tom Speirs]

Just to make things a little clear, would I have to disable the login information to Emumovies in the Setup Wizard before running GameEx (for at least the first time)?

No, once or if ive fixed the problem everything should run like clockwork.

[Tom Speirs]

PS: Just waiting for someone who had the issue to confirm then I can get the release out.

Cheers.

Tom

It works for me now aside from being slow (which I imagine is the result of debugging log).

Put that biach out. LOL!

Lemmie know when it's ready.

[Adultery]

PS: Is it possible to have the weather fixed also?

[Tom Speirs]

Its out. Sorry, weather?

EDIT: Was that a joke? If your in the UK that requires zen master level 9 coding skills. I am level 7.

[Adultery]

Yeah it's been a bug for a while. The weather icon doesn't show up anymore. I know it was reported once before because Drac and I were taking about it. I miss having the weather.

[Tom Speirs]

Thats odd. Its working for me. Did you try selecting the location again?

[Draco1962]

I have tried that several times as there are multiple locs listed for Jacksonville Florida to choose from and still no weather joy.

[Draco1962]

Otherwise just updated to 10.74 and, other than the missing weather info, all seems to be just fine! Thanks for the rapid response, Tom!

[AlphaUMi]

Some of my emulator doesn't work. Now I'll go to sleep. See you tomorrow...

[Adultery]

That may be a function of the clean install... Which emulators don't work?

[thurmansevolution]

I'm finally about to get off work and going to try out the v12.64 when I get home! I'll post on how it goes - in the meantime, I got my fingers crossed lol

Before I start any kinda install, I am planning on doing a fresh install with 12.64 - do I still use the GameEx.exe file that Tom attached?

[Adultery]

No, you can use the installer on the home page. Tom will offer up a debug version if you still have problems.

It's 12.75 btw.

[thurmansevolution]

Ahh! Cool!! lol...I didn't notice there was another update until now...makes me even happier .

I'm gonna give it a shot and post how it goes!

Thanks a million!

[thurmansevolution]

Ha Ha!!!! IT WORKS!! IT WORKS!!! THANKS TOM AS WELL AS THE WHOLE GAMEEX TEAM!! :D :D

You just made me dance like this in my living room:

LOL!!!

[Adultery]

Awesome! Glad it works for you!

I,m gonna mark this as [RESOLVED] since all the "bugs" seem to be ironed out (AFAIK).

Thanks again for your patience.

[Tom Speirs]

lol. Glad you are happy and thanks for your patience.

[Adultery]

"If you wanna do the Steve Urkel dance, all you gotta do is hitch up your pants!"

It's a wonder that never caught on... LOL!

[thurmansevolution]

Thanks Adultery! Lol, I got so caught up in playing Metal Slug, that I kinda forgot to put the [RESOLVED] in the title. Lol, and as for the Urkel Dance - it was part of ABC's TGIF lineup of marketed dances - along with "Step by Step"'s weird Cody Character...I would trade in the whole lineup though if they could bring "Dinosaurs" back on air lol! ...oh good times, good times lol

Thanks Tom! I am really happy with the update! ...there are a few times where it seems like it slows down a little (is a little laggy when it comes to the video snaps), but I can live with all that to see it up and going

[Adultery]

I noticed this too, like it stops for a sec and loads the next video. It's literally only a sec though.

[Tom Speirs]

It might be because its downloading artwork (or searching for) in the background. So it slows the system down a little.

[Tom Speirs]

PS: Does it freeze or is there just a delay? If the latter its probably the search and download thread in the background.

[Adultery]

I suppose you might say it's a delay... The scrolling text stops and you can't move the cursor/selector bar for a second. Hardly even noticeable.

[Tom Speirs]

Im pretty sure its the extra two threads running. Ive moved them to the lowest priority now. See if its any better with the attached. I forget not everyone wastes money on the latest hardware like I do
