Im going to have to ask for this again.I really think it would be a good idea,plus it would add some organization. I would really like for mame roms to have a goodmerge look to them.meaning that if you select a game with many clones,such as marvel vs capcom instead of having 20 of the same game in the list,just have one and when you select it all its clones would be listed with a little flag next to each.it would have to be a full version only feature make it so TOM!!! ^_^

EDIT:I also have another small request if maybe we can have custom art paths added to DAPHNE?I have some killer box art for DAPHNE I would love to show :)

I have another feature request.I had thought that the emulator grouping feature would group chosen emulators together,but it doesnt.It merges the chosen emulators games list.I would like to just be able to group emulators together.I would like for example to make a group of second generation emulators atari 2600,5200,7800,coleco,intellivision,vectrex and have them all under a second generation menu,then so on with generation 3,4 and so on. :)

Would it be possible to add sound to the screensaver. When I have friends over and the screensaver kicks in, they all ask what happened to the sound. The think the screensaver is the cab going into attract mode. So that would be awesome if it had sound while in "attract mode"

There should be a setting to control what sound does in the screensaver, no?

Hi my first post here, I'm a user of GameEx few months ago, but today I bought a full license to use, I really liked the features, but here is my post to ask some new features in future versions, so the program can be even better :

First excuse my English is still bad, so I'll post pictures so I can be understood:

Use the GameEx in conjunction with the Windows 7 Media Center on a dedicated htpc + server with windows home server.

The photos posted below are plugins for windows media center and other software, just to illustrate the idea, since these features were implemented in these plugins!

- Support for backdrops (wallpapers) for each game in the list!

Like what you see in movies / TV series with the plugins for windows media center myMovies, media browser, media portal and xbmc

When navigating through the gallery items background changes according to the selected items.

Today in GameEx has this feature only for each system ex: super nes, sega genesis, pc-fx, etc ... would be nice if one for each game!

EX:

03psxvalkyrieprofile.th.jpg

01pclargeicons.th.jpg

screenshot005rr.th.jpg

- New display options (Although one can create skins, usually to create has to edit an existing one, most of the skins has virtually the same structure for viewing only by changing the background, location of items and details of some items)

Ex: Coverflow

- Option to create custom shortcuts "Custom GameEx menu" Main Menu windows media center, so eg. choose whether all the games on the shortcut and windows media center automatically starts the GameEx this section, enter a search shortcut in the main menu and go to WMC corresponding session of GameEx.

Similar to shortcuts that "Media Center Studio" http://www.adventmediacenter.com/ creates programs and plugins to the menu of WMC.

- More options for custom art, 10 would be good, because some systems have the need to catalog flyers, maps, strategy guide, poster, etc ...

Thank you for your attention here on the forum and create the GameEx!

Couldn't find a setting when doing a search and a walkthru both in GameExconfig and the Setup Wizard.

Another question. If you are configuring a emulator in GameExConfig you can set the emulator to use the database but not to use the database names. This works great. If you need to configure a emulator above the 60 or so in the Setup wizard, and you set to use the database there is no option to not use the database names.

Could I get this black frame when using PNG images with Transparency in view screenshot

24246797.jpg

Could put an option to choose which folder will be the screenshot without altering the other images because he wanted to put the covers, but I want to just keep appearing at the bottom of the video, appears to think this way should not give with the current options or am I wrong?

Tom - The only sound feature I could find under the Attract/Screensaver section pertains to Play Exit Sound when exiting screensaver. I went through Advanced Config and could not find an option that allow you to turn on or mute sound in thsi feature. IN the stand-alone MAME Screensaver, you do have that option.to select "Sound in Games."

Perhaps the Attract Audio Mode setting in Setup Wizard or the Attract Mode Audio setting in Advanced Configuration is what you're looking for? Setting is found in the Attract/Screensaver section of both apps.

Support country flag.

It would be possible in a next version of GameEx add a flag of Brazil for games ending in (B).

I searched for a way to put but I could not, just swapping some existing one.

I do not know if this is right place to report bugs or problem, but I used the search and not found for this topic.

I have a problem with the favorite option, I use the games added in MAME emulators custom, creating a bat file for each game systems and separating them by because I want to edit the database of mame (synopses, etc. .. . to Portuguese - Brazil) and sort by each system and put together with the console emulators besides I use multiple versions of MAME for arcade systems differently.

The fact is that everything is working perfect with games in THEIR RESPECTIVE places, except the favorite option that insists on such an upgrade of listinfo.dat and that is there and the crash, I can only exit GameEx to kill the process.

I did a test by removing all mame games on my system and got the same result, so the problem should not be the way I put the games on the system but the fact of not having installed MAME in my GameEx should be problem.

It is my doubt if I have not installed on the MAME GameEx I can not use the favorites?

In this case could have an option of not having to upgrade the listinfo.dat in the next version?

despite having the option of Cacela I can not cancel, if I return it updates the listinfo.dat the same way and hangs in 25%.

Below is a log of me GameEx + screenshots of the problem.

This flag I miss my GameEx!

Tom, on a next version could add some of these functions:

Support flyer for console emulators (that already exists in MAME)

Support icon for console emulators (that already exists in MAME)

Support for manual thumbnail (thumbnail support for pdf)

Support ratings for the game (ESRB), (CERO), etc ...

ESRB: http://www.esrb.org/index-js.jsp

CERO: http://www.cero.gr.jp/rating.html

File support. x (3d cover) for box files, 3ds max studio (obj)/ (3ds) or GIF.

I know, but that happens usually use all five discs with a custom path disc 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5, strategy guide, backdrop, map, etc. ... and not much for this, so if it was fixed like box, cartridge, etc ... as in MAME that would ease a little more or adding custom covers as I suggested in a previous post!
