Fusion minimizes Gameex

[Censored]

Hello everyone!

As the Topic Title says: Every time I start a Genesis Game in GameEx - GameEx minimizes itself in the taskbar and nothing else happens.

When I click on the GameEx Icon to maximize it - GameEx maximizes itself and start Fusion immediately!

Thanks for your help!

Many thanky for your reply.

I attached my GameEx.ini, log.txt and fusion.ini

Some additional Information:

Windows 7, ATI Graphics Adaptor, 2 Monitor Setup

Wow, my GameEx and Emulator Setup knowledge is very.....rusty, I set up my last GameEx Cab about 6 years ago...

This issue came up after reinstalling Win7 and GameEx cause I changed the PC in my new "Convertible-Pinball-Cab".

I dont think that this is a GameEx bug. I think its rather .....a bug in my sight......or brain....

GameEx.ini

log.txt

Fusion.ini

Can you run the game in fusion without GameEx?

[Censored]

The game is running with and without GameEx.

The problem is:

When I choose "Play Game" in GameEx, GameEx minimizes itself (so I´m back on my Desktop).

Only after I maximize GameEx again with a click on the taskbar, Fusion is starting.

This only happens with fusion. MAME is working properly.

Well, I replaced the new Mainboard and CPU with the old ones, reinstalled Win7 and GameEx,

and guess what: Fusion is running without any problems!

I even used the same ini Files, I used when the "minimized-problem" appeared.

Well...problem solved, I think.....

Were you using the XPadder Plugin?

[Censored]

Yes, I was using the XPadder plugin, because I thought that I could config XPadder in GameEx with it. (Well, I dont know what the plugin really does...)

There was an issue with GameEx losing focus when using the XPadder plugin, Adultery however kindly fixed it in a recent update

Please grab it from HERE and let us know if it resolves your issue.

Oh and Merry Christmas!

-EDIT- And to answer your question, the plugin will launch your .xpadderprofile(s) without the hassle of using .BAT files (the old, cumbersome way)

Go to Start>Programs>GameEx>Configuration>Plugin Manager to point the plugin to your relevent Xpadder profiles

Cant try it, because the problem was gone since I changed the hardware of the cab, but my GameEx was updated every time I was notified that a new version was available.

Thanks DazzleHP!

Well since you changed hardware, I believe that was your culprit. Some people had the issue and others didn't, I know that my dell dimension 3000 and my cousin's dimension 3000 both experienced that issue. But hey you found a way to fix that so rock on!
