Having an odd problem

[TalkingBull]

For some reason, whenever I select a game, it will go to a different game. It doesn't do it for every game on the list but I would say about 60% of them. I checked and it is doing it in every section (MAME, Emu, Favorites, etc...). I have no idea why it is doing this but I noticed it after I updated to 5.73

For example, if I want to play Puzzle Bobble from my favorites, I will select it and instead of taking me to the Puzzle Bobble page (With the game, flyer, history, etc...) it will go to a different game on the same list like Dig Dug.

Help!

How are you selecting the games when this happens, mouse, keyboard or joystick?

Actually, I tried all three and got the same result.

Is it just happening with Favorites?

I am having the same problem. I found on my set up it only does it when I am using a theme editor V2 theme. When I changed it back to the older theme style the issue stopped.

Perhaps we should post our configs and compare to see if there is something similar in our set ups causing the problem. We would also need someones config who has GameEx running a V2 theme that isn't doing this.

EDIT: also noted that it seems to pick what ever game is 2 to 3 titles back. Will have to re-check it again to be more specific.

I got it too, reported in this earlier post that somehow slipped through without comments: http://www.gameex.info/forums/index.php?showtopic=1209

I noticed it while browsing Recommended Games (read topic in link).

This is when using a V2 theme, yes?

I cant easily pinpoint what is causing this, can give some specific details about the size and position of your gamelist in your theme, and also pinpoint when it selects the wrong game, such as when at the bottom of the list of after a page?

Cheers.

EDIT: Also see if 5.75 is any better.

H 371

X 298

Installing 5.76 now, will edit this post later with results.

Edit: Tested with 5.76, problem solved!
