stigzler Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Think I'll save others' time and holler @Tom Speirs directly, although if anyone's got any ideas - let me know. Think this issue is GE hardcoding somewhere... So found a weird issue tonight whilst dev'ing my CustomLists plugin. It uses "Export to MCE" to refresh the favourites list after DATA>data.db3 has been manipulated by the plugin. This used to work fine. However, tonight, this was happening: Attached the corresponding log for this run. It's like it does the operation, but then you're left looking at the "Loading" dialog box. If you stick with it - I use the gamepad - it clicks like you're navigating and I think it is navigating correctly behind the 'stuck' screen (just from hearing some background music etc.... To isolate, I disabled all plugins + disabled CustomMenus. Essentially running 'bare.' Also found that Search not working, and this shows to problems a little better: Any ideas? log.txt GameEx.ini Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Ill take a look. There were some changes to how the please wait dialog worked. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stigzler Posted December 11, 2016 Author Share Posted December 11, 2016 Cheers fella. Wondered whether it was centred around that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 You know, I believe I fixed this issue but might have updated the current version. Please just try and install again. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stigzler Posted December 11, 2016 Author Share Posted December 11, 2016 Bizarrely, Tom, I've never 'reinstalled over the top' - I'm guessing you just download the installer and run - installing to the same location? Will I loose any files - I'm guessing only the GE files get overwritten. Weirdly - got 15Gb in my GE folder - taking a while to back up! No idea where the 15G is coming from!

Tom Speirs Posted December 11, 2016 Share Posted December 11, 2016 Well the auto download does exactly the same thing but with no prompts. Although that should be the correct version. I will make sure. I don't get those issues here though once I fixed the issue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom Speirs Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Yeah, that's the latest. Obviously a bug. Please try this exe replacement. Thanks. Tom. GameEx.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 It seems like a quite a serious bug to me. So I am getting another release out. Hopefully I fixed it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Actually I think its unrelated to the please wait animation. I think you are getting an exception when searching and the rest of the stuff and that is causing the issue. Could you try to narrow it down to a system? Try that exe anyway.

stigzler Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 Nope. Still the same. Tried with the auto-update version, then with the individual exe file. I tried searching a game which is only on one system. Still same issue. Log attached. log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 I think the display glitch is a side effect of a different issue. Please try this exe and post the log. Thanks. Tom. GameEx.zip Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stigzler Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 OK. So tested both with and without custom menus. On both: Search no longer does the glitchy thing - refreshes as usual. However, it's not returning any search results where it should (e.g. "Tekken" with lots of Tekken games in the library). On custom: The "Export to MCE" option (leveraged via plugin) still causes same bug. (the log reflects this run). Getting closer + thanks for looking at this, Tom. log.txt Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Please do me a favour and turn off the artwork downloader. See if that works. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stigzler Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 Out of time this am. Pesky work. Yerp - fixed that the search bug, but some wierd behaviours with using MCE export in plugin. However, latter may be the plugin, although worked before. Will look at this pm. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stigzler Posted December 12, 2016 Author Share Posted December 12, 2016 @Tom Speirs - OK - did some testing. All's good generally and with my plugin when you disable artwork downloader. Re-appears if re-instated. Thanks for isolating the problem. Let me know if you need anything else to help with tackling the downloader issue.

Tom Speirs Posted December 13, 2016 Share Posted December 13, 2016 Should be fixed in the current release. I did a silent update. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
