Gamelauncher Mode Thread

[jthompson]

OK guys, I know since this is a new feature, some of us may have issues and there may be a learning curve to this new mode Tom has given us. I thought I would start a thread we could all post our issues in rather than having problem reports and the like scattered all over the forum. The first question I had was how do we turn the new mode on? You can turn it on by going into the display settings of either the wizard or the config and set gamelauncher mode to yes.

Tom, I haven't really got to mess around with this too much yet. I noticed that all my emulators show up exept for mame. I tried the setting "put mame under emulated games" in the config but it didn't seem to help. I also noticed that a screen opens up (like any other emulator screen) that says exit then to the side it says no emulators found. When I try to navigate away from this screen it seems that GameEx is frozen. Its probably just my setup so I've included my log file.

Can you make sure flat menus/start page is turned off, and try again please?

I've just released 8.65, which automatically turns off a few settings, such as flat mode etc.

Can you try it please?

Tom, as far as I know I've never used flat mode. Here is my logfile running 8.65. I have the same issues. Kind of funny, I have a model 2 page but no mame page. When I get to the exit page that I commented on earlier I have to ctrl, alt, del to get out of GameEx.

Jay, can you post your GameEx.ini, then hopefully I can duplicate the problem.

Thanks for your help.

Of course. I know better than that, I should have given it to you to begin with. Here you go.

Can you please try 8.66?
