Is there a working dynamic marquee for 64 bit GameEx?

[SimonB_]

I've just updated my arcade cab to a nice new mini PC with Windows 11 pro (64 bit). Thought I'd do a fresh install and update everything since I was on v 16.28 of GameEx Arcade from way back in the day! I used to use MarqueeMasher to show marquees on the second monitor that is at the top of my cab. However I can't get that working now. I presume this is because it's a 32 bit dll and doesn't work with the latest GameEx 64 bit version? The log shows failed to load extension and there's no log from MarqueeMasher.

So I figured I'd try Infoz. That gives me a GDI error when trying to add an image to a layout (mentioned in another post on here without a solution), so I can't set that up to work as a marquee either.

I thought since all I need is a simple fullscreen marquee I could maybe just enable marquee in the GameEx settings but if I do that it fails to run and I get an "index was outside the bounds of the array" error in the log.

Does anyone have a working dynamic marquee with a 64 bit version of GameEx? Is there another plugin/solution somewhere?

im happy to fix the error but will need the log file and gameex.ini

Thanks.

Attached are my gamneex.ini and log from switching on marquee and enabling the MarqueeMasher plugin. It's the same if I disable the plugin (not sure if that should do anything or not?) only without the failed to load plugin message near the start.

I've attached the exception that I get from infoz too. Appreciate that is a separate thing, just for future reference.

Thanks.

Thank you. i was referring to the built in support in GameEx. i don't think i have the source code (or permission) for the plugin.
