Attract mode limited to certain games?

[deano7]

I have 2 minor questions that I am sure have simple solutions.

1. I have a vertical mame cab and I would like the attract/screensaver mode to only play vertical oriented games. I looked in advanced config and didn't see any setting that would allow me to do this.

2. I have gameex in the startup folder and it starts when the computer is turned on, but it starts minimized. How do I get it to start in full screen mode?

Thanks in advance!

1. One option would be (provided you are not using the Favorites feature) would be to add all of your vertical games to Favorites, then select Yes for Play Only Favorites.

2. Do you have GameEx configured to display Full Screen? I have seen similar po0sts but not certain how this was resolved.

{same answer in the other thread where you asked this question}

Set up an emulator that has only vertical games. Tell GameEx to only use that emulator. If you are using custom menus, you can leave that one out.

There is no toggle to just set GameEx to use vertical only games.

Make sure you have 'Run'set to 'Maximized' set in the properties of the shortcut.

Thanks guys, I'll give them a try. I really appreciate the responses. Thanks Kenobi, wasn't trying to spam multiple threads, just noticed that some were talking about similar questions and figured I would deliver it right to the people who probably knew the answer! Thanks again for the help.
