HI all. I have been unable to find anything that really explains how to change a certain setting in GameEX.

How does one change the Page UP / DOWN option to quickly slide from one section of the Game List to another in GameEX?

I can change the MAME v123 UI Up / Down, but that only effects the UI for MAME itelf, not the Game List in GameEX.

Thanks all.

I'm not sure I understand the request. There are 3 ways you can navigate lists (menu, game, media, whatever).

1) up/down - press the up/down key and GameEx will move the selection the the next/previous item in the list.

2) page up/down - hold the alpha/paging button and press up/down to move the list up/down one page in the list.

3) alpha up/down - hold the alpha/paging button and press right/left to move the list up/down one letter in the list.

You can also use the wheel on your mouse to move up/down the list, but there is no control on speed and I'm not sure if it works with the alpha/paging button since I've never tried it. Up/Down/Left/Right can be either keyboard or joystick controls and you can reassign these inputs to whatever you want in the setup wizard by using custom controls.

Hopefully that answered your question...

GameEx uses a modifier key to allow Alpha paging. While pressing in the modifier key (which is assignable through the GameEx setup Wizard) you press right/left on your joystick to go up or down by one letter and up/down on your joystick to go one full page up or down. So basically just go into the gamex setup, set that modifier key to what you want it to be then press (and hold it) in GameEx while pressing either up/dn/left/right on the joystick.

I seem to have figured it out now.

Using joysticks for the controls, something I forgot to mention here ( :blink: ) I now have the buttons mapped as:

Button 1: Select

Button 2: Step Back

Button 4: Page UP/DOWN

Button 5: Volume Control

Thanks for the info folks, that got it.
