Hi EvilForces,

Was this due to an auto-update (ie not reinstall) and have you any idea which version your were on before this happened?

[Evilforces]

Hi Dazzle!!!

I always update GameEx with auto-update, also this time.

I don't know the version number, but was the version when Tom fixed the 0.162 game list issue commented on this post: http://www.gameex.info/forums/topic/16310-resolved-updated-to-0162-and-not-all-games-showing/

EDIT: Version 14.09

[DazzleHP]

Ok, that's a relief

The latest MAME changes have messed a lot of people around, and the staff are trying (read: Tom!) to get on top of it, and i believe it has been done. Unfortunately it might mean that some unlucky souls like yourself may need to reconfigure some things.

Don't despair though - give it some time, may be a day or two for people to respond, and if it comes to it i'll show you how to reinstall with little to no damage

Looks like a video card issue to me, but I don't know for sure. Did you try and do an offline install over the top?

How can i do that?

Thanks in advance!!!

[Adultery]

Just go download the installer at gameex.com and install it.

Your settings should be fine, but not a horrible idea to back them up just in case.

If the path isn't valid then something that doesn't exist is attempting to load. Maybe the theme is corrupt or your startup video if you use one. It's def related to the imaging though.

How can i do that?

Download the installer from GameEx.com and do an in-place installation over the top of your existing install.

Edit:

What Adultery said

[Evilforces]

Please, can you give me a direct link to download exe?

For some reason i can't load the Gameex.com page....

I can't either! Something is wrong there FF and IE don't like.

EDIT: Can't even shortcut to the download in either browser:

www.gameex.com/download-gameex/ <- might be an old link but still it won't load, just hangs.

YA HAD TA BREAK DA INTERNET, DINTYA?

[Evilforces]

Until Tom solve the problem, I'm watching this great video. I invite you to see together... Come on Tom!!!

[DazzleHP]

YA HAD TA BREAK DA INTERNET, DINTYA?

YESH!

[DazzleHP]

Until Tom solve the problem, I'm watching this great video. I invite you to see together... Come on Tom!!!

LOL how long it take you to find that? The yodel thing lately innit

Seriously though - he don't go on for 10 hours does he???

[DazzleHP]

@Evilforces, judging by your "like" this clown really does go on for 10 hours.

I get bored easily but yet there are a few times when 10 hours is not a barrier, nor a thresh hold. I would in all honesty like to divulge, but manners as ever restrain me fwahwahwah.

[Evilforces]

Let's talk about serious things !!!

1 - Gameex.com is online again

2 - I downloaded the installer, reinstalled and everything works like a charm.

3 - Luckily I have not had to watch 10 hours of Trololo video .... Thanks for that Tom !!!

[tthurman]

I thought lawn work was bad, but after that video, I'm glad I went outside this evening, even at 96 degrees!

No offense if you're really into it, er, or something!
