I think I noticed the databases loading as soon as GameEX loads.am I just seeing things?

for some reason the text has turned black.not the game list text,but the text that is displayed when updating the list,or adding a favorite.you can see in the pick.I didnt change any settings,just updated to 11.86.not really a big deal,although i would like it to go back to white

Check your theme to see if the text color is showing changed and, if so, change it and resave it. Otherwise, check the settings in Setup Wizard.

Other than the startup delay bug I did a bit of a code cleanup. Its reduced the overall size of the executable by a couple of kb. I removed some variables and consolidated some functions. It should not really be any faster but it all helps

Thanks! Any time you can consolidate and eliminate superfluous code is a good thing!

hmm.. GameEx starts only on "Startpage" since this update. Under Options is "Show Startpage first" disabled.

To be honest I removed that feature. Did not think it was used. Its a really legacy thing for when GameEx was just MAME only and went to more. I cant really remember what it does. Does it start in the MAME list? What Ill probably replace with it is an option to properly start in the last state.

Cheers.

Tom.
