GameEx 4.70 - Out

[Tom Speirs]

30th July 2005
- GameEx 4.70

• Modified all themes to work
  with VMWare, Virtual PC, and older graphics cards.
  If GamEx ended when creating surfaces and you weren't
  using the default theme this release should fix
  that.
• Better SlikStik, X-Arcade and
  Gamepad support.
  
  • Ability to exit all
    emulators and applications with these devices
    (always on for MAME and Zinc. Use the MapKeys
    setting for emulators and apps).
  • Ability to not exit
    attract mode with a Gamepad.
  • See the docs page for
    controls
    

  
  [*]Kills VPAuto.exe process when
  running Visual Pinball. The MapKeys setting works
  fine for me with the latest version of Visual
  Pinball.

One thing you might consider is having LaunchAfter run even if you kill an application. Then you could just put taskkill /im vpauto.exe (or maybe a BAT file that does whatever other "cleanup" is necessary like dismounting a CD image or killing off additional helper applications) in GameEx.ini.

In Windows - go into Control Panel, Select Game Controllers, Select your controller, select properties. See which buttons are what.

Cheers

Hmm, you're right, looks like it's working now. It definitely didn't when I tried to use it that way some weeks back. Nice, that opens a lot of possibilities.

Yes, it was not working right unless GameEx was showing in a window. Its fixed in 4.72 which I just uploaded. Go try it!
