GameEx 4.80 - Released

[Tom Speirs]

13th August 2005
- GameEx 4.80

• Attract mode enhancements:
  
  • Can play videos, ie
    commercials.
  • recommended with the
    MAMEWAH commercial pack from http://www.emumovies.com
  • Can specify ratio of
    videos to games
  • Can now specify how long
    each game stays running for
    

  
  [*]Jukebox now features
  visualisations. [*]Fix: GameX remembers window
  position after returning from being minimized. [*]Should fix GameEx loosing
  focus on older PC's [*]Should fix Mouse not working
  after ALT-Tabbing and returning to GameEx full
  screen. [*]Fix: Fonts are recreated at
  the correct size when Maximizing and you've told
  GameEx not to set resolution. [*]Fix: Gamepad support is
  turned off when no gamepad found. This could fix
  various issues when launching MAME games and other
  use. [*]Emulators are better
  organised in the config app. [*]Attract mode has its own
  section in config app.

wat is attract mode???????

Attract mode is like a screen saver. If you leave GameEx and don't pick a game for a while, it will start running random games (or with the new version, possibly playing videos).

Forgot:

Windows shortcuts are now supported for emulators. GameEx can read and process the contents of the shortcut file and launch the exe appropriately with support for map keys.
