finally got around to adding what few Daphne games I have to my GameEx setup and they run just fine, but I have a few nitpicks I need to ask about.

First of all, I use the Joystick exit option on every emulator I've got. This is usually found in "Advanced Config" and then "Joypad exit". However Daphne doesn't have an advanced config. No matter, Mame doesn't either and I got it to exit mame using the same combination... wait, how did I do that again? I don't remember... well, whatever, the fact is when I try to use the gamepad exit combination I have setup for everything else, GameEx freezes, BAD. I might return to GameEx, but I'll have no control over it what-so-ever and will be forced to Ctrl+alt+del. The only way to exit a Daphne game is with the legitimate ESC button on the keyboard... how can I use my joypad exit feature?

And another thing... I have Daphne title screens and avi movies set up just like every other emulator. I would love it if the title screens were used as the thumbnails on my list, like every other emulator, but instead I get these screens that must have been taken out of the avi. No matter what I do, I can't get GameEx to use the title screen as the thumbnail.. what's going on? It knows the title screen is there all the paths are correct... filenames are correct... like I said in the topic, it's just nitpicking

One thing at a time. Daphne can be set to exit within DaphneLoader. Game >>> Configure DAPHNE options >>> Input >>> Quit >>> Change... (the rest is self-explanatory). As far as how you set it up in MAME, Tab >>> Input (general) >>> User Interface >>> UI Cancel >>> (the desired keys/buttons to exit).

Ah thank you for that. It's just one button to exit Daphne now, but no big deal... at least I can exit using the joystick. I didn't notice that earlier.

As for the titles... I figured out what to do, I just copied the actual title screens into the cached thumbnails folder and renamed em. Sort of unorthadox but it worked.

So I'm done nitpicking. thanks a bunch.
