[RESOLVED] How to delay running GameEx on startup?

[the_greeze]

Hello,

I want GameEx to start automatically when I boot the PC in my cab. A shortcut to it is in the startup folder (Win 7 here, 64 bit) and it does indeed launch on startup as expected. Trouble is, I get a black screen. GameEx is running (I can hear the sound effects etc. when I use the joystick to scroll through the list) but no picture.

I suspect that something is stealing its 'focus'. Is there an easy way to delay the start of GameEx (say, by a few seconds) to give whatever it is stealing focus a chance to finish? Can I add anything in the GameEx options to achieve this effect?

Thanks...

Hi the_greeze

Adultery (AKA The Hardest Working Plugin Developer in GameEx™ ) has developed a plugin a standalone app for this express purpose. Have a look at GameExLaunch as I think it might be just the ticket you're looking for.

Sorted! Thank you for the heads-up about that app nullPointer and (of course) thank you Adultery for making it available!

I set it to delay for ten seconds and it works perfectly

Great news! And you're welcome.
