Auto Update Feature

[Ricci]

Hi Tom-

Will the autoupdate feature affect stand alone machines (i.e. seek error) or would I be better off with a previous version? Also, will you ever offer previous versions of GAMEEX? I noticed there are some earlier versions that I would liked to use again (but overwrote them!) for different platforms I am using. Thanks!

I have no plans to provide previous versions unless I release a beta or know for sure a version I release is unstable. Not sure what "seek error" means, if you mean machines not connected to the internet, GameEx will produce no error and the autoupdate feature will simply do nothing.

How many different version GameEx pc's you running!? I'm pretty good about it, but if your running more than 2-3 (officially 1) in your own home you should register them.

I am running GAMEEX on two machines currently. I have a standalone that I use to do all the MAME updates on (compiling roms/videos and other add on's, and once I am sure it is solid, I transfer it to my console. Basically, the standalone is my workstation/debugger for games, but I usually test the versions of GAMEEX on there, and that is when I noticed I liked some previous functions.(this way, if something goes horribly wrong-which it has not yet

Don't get me wrong, each version is getting better and better, but I wondered if I used it on my workstation, without an Internet connection, if that would cause any problems when it seeks to update. I have registered one, and will gleefully register another if that is a problem.

Just in case you didn't know, much like everything else, you can turn off the auto update.

Where is that feature in the config? I couldn't find it.

Under Enable/Disable Options. One of the first settings.
