Displaying manuals during game

[shroud]

Hello all, 

 

I have noticed that the support for game manuals has been made available also to users of the free version of GameEx. Is there a way to popup the display of a manual while you are in the middle of running a game? Or is manuals display limited to the GameEx menus? I don't usually even need a game's manual, but I was thinking that occasionally there are complex games for which you might want to take a look at a map or even a walkthrough if you get stuck, and it would be quite useful if it was possible to do so without exiting emulation each time. Thanks!

This is a good one and may have been requested before but even if so, it doesn't hurt to request it again. Please submit your suggestion in the GameEx Feature & Enhancement Requests thread.

For single display : You can enable pause at the bottom of the emulator setup menu. This'll take you back to the gameex game menu to view the manual (depending on the emulator) 

For multi display : download cpwizbiz written by some muppet on here....

Sorry Stigz, I totally forgot about your CPWizBiz app could handle that on a multi display system. Registering to my brain pan for future reference.

No worries.
