GameEx 3.70 - Out

[Tom Speirs]

8th May 2005
- GameEx 3.70

• I think this is pretty strong
  release and a good step forward.
• The main new features are that
  GameEx now supports title, box, and cartridge artwork for
  console emulators.
• It also now can show title,
  cabinet, flyer, marquee, and panel artwork for Daphne.
• If your a newbie or unaware of
  screenshot archive I cant praise this site enough. Go there
  to get your console and daphne artwork. http://screenshotarchive.com
• If enabled audio now plays in
  logos that are videos.
• In addition to the new image
  paths available, there are two more settings for emulators.
• Much like with MAME already
  these allow you to launch a command before running a game,
  and launch a command when a game exits
• The Configuration application
  has been reorganised a fair bit to hopefully make things a
  little easier and less confusing.
• Robs included BlueEx themes
  will now not show corruption with ArcadeVGA 7000 series
  cards.
• Radio can now play WMA station
  direct links. Meaning station URLS beginning with MMC:// now
  work.

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

Tom, this feature, I have added the directories in the configuration, but I noticed that none of the title/box/cart pics load. I assume they would normally load in the standard image window, but I only get snaps, even if no snap exists but a box/title does.

What is the preference of GameEx as to which image it shows? Could it be set to look in order, i.e. no snap, look for title; no title, look for boxart; no boxart, look for cart....

Right now I only see snaps, but I want to get more from this feature.

I think this is as we talked before, its because you have 'show game information' turned off. The images are available after you select a game.

Oh yeah, I remember now. I didn't realize that feature worked for consoles, I thought it was only for MAME. I prefer not to use that option as it adds an extra step in actually running the game. Oh well, there's always hope for the future.
