I've been messing around with YAC (Caller ID Software) and its great. I have a server running YAC sending all the Caller ID to everyone of my PCs... Except for my Arcade.

I know GameEx has a caller ID plugin but with YAC I have my modem in one computer and the others don't have one. I tried the default YAC Listener with GameEX but when the Caller ID pops up, it minimizes GAMEEX. How does the Caller ID Plugin work? It it just an over lay and does it show up while playing games? I'm no coder so theres no chance of me getting a Listener for gameex unless other people are interested and someone else has some free time.

Anyone know of anything that exists already, or any other options?

Just tossing it out there.

Thanks

GameEx can't show messages while a game is running. So it won't work like that. Also without a plugin written specifically as a host for YAC there is no way to prevent it from minimizing GameEx. The Caller ID plugin just displays a standard GameEx popup message while your in GameEx. It only works with certain types of modems that support caller ID output too.

I did find this one (WHOISIT) and it does pop up but it flashes over GameEX. I guess its not really an overlay so theres no way to make it play nicely.

I'll just have to keep trying out the different listeners out there to see if any work well.

Thanks
