[RESOLVED] GameEx ReInstall Questions

[MNMax21]

Hi guys,

I did this myself, but I would like to fix it prior to going to Evolution. I had quite a few extras and built my own theme. Everything worked great for awhile, but it's getting a little buggy. This was not an issue until I did the theme. Also, it stalls on occasion at the start of games when it plays the CPWiz piece.

Long story short... I am looking at doing a fresh install of GameEx and staring over in some ways. I just want to know if anyone has any input on making this process easy. Also, can I pull my GameEx key from my old install and place it into my new?

This can be closed or deleted. I had my key still. However, I wish I would've remembered to keep my .ini from my old GameEx before I did the fresh install. Doh!

Don't really have any shortcuts for installing, though I have found keeping your games directory structure separate from the GameEx root directory makes for easier updating of game sets.  This is a big personal preference of course, so it may not be ideal for you.

If you have the registry key that was sent upon registration, you can simply double click it to add it again should the need arise.  If not, you can open a support ticket with your email, and Tom can most likely resend it.

Luckily I kept it. I had done this awhile back too when I did too much tinkering for my own good. I remembered to keep the registry key from that time. Haha. I installed the Evolution and Arcade versions last night too. I like the arcade piece, but I need to figure out how to do all the HyperSpin looking artwork and what not.

Good deal!

Hope all goes well with your reconfiguration, keep us posted
