I was tinkering around with gameextender and decided to try the publish to server bit. In my config there is no publish to server button available. I have become fairly adept and moving through the options and changing bits here and there and I am pretty sure I am not missing it. Has it been disabled or moved somewhere else?

^{You ever have one of those days? As soon as I posted, I just knew where the answer was. I have been launching the config utility from inside GameEx. For some reason, the "publish to server" checkbox is not present there. I went to the GameEx folder and ran the config there and presto! Now we will just have to see if it posts...}

Ever feel like you're talking to yourself?
So, I found the box, checked it, made sure gameextender was not on, and then went to see myself on the Live page. No banner. I played a few games, left one running for a while, then checked it again. It doesn't seem to be sending any data to the website. Am I missing something simple?

Sometimes it is a matter of clearing your temporary internet files, closing your browser then opening it back to the page to see if it updates.

Wait... You did go get your gamertag right? I may be wrong but I think you need the registry key to publish.

The publish to server is no longer a feature in GameEx. This is handled automatically with Game Tags now.

Thanks for the quick responses. I just got my gamer card. Here is the problem. A good time ago, maybe around 2006 or 2007, I found GameEx through your mame screensaver project. I donated and got the reg file at that time. I just got back into this about two weeks ago after a few years off and was not able to log in with my old account name or email. I still had the reg. file in my GameEX folder, so I wasn't too concerned. I created an account under "The Grump" for forum use. I cannot get a gamer card under that login. I did however just now get a gamercard with my old login and password. The website will not let me login with it though. Could you check it out for me?

There is no login, it just creates an account and emails you a file. Its completly seperate to the forum. The login button on gameex.com just takes you to the forum login. Install the gamer card and the rest automatic.

Well, as you can see, it is working. Thanks for the heads up on the gamercard!
