Enkak Posted October 31, 2009 Author Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) I understand that, what i couldn't understand is if you stopped development because of those things that happened. Underground is good for development (the thing about going private exactly), and let be on public the updates (when they exist) ideas, feedback and help from the users. And the new topic being created by fumanchu and not you it's a good idea also. Generally, when it's that way, the topics flow better if they are created by the 'users'.

BritneysPAIRS Posted October 31, 2009 Posted October 31, 2009 those last few days on the forums where to see if I could stop the behavour....but I couldnt it was plain to see...I warned all users in a public forum and was even encoraged to do this. It was being set in stone at that time for a while and im well aware of alot of stuff behind the scenes that maybe your helpfull friends can tell you about one day . Anyways as said it was warned many times over a few weeks it obious it was only going to get worse and the helpfull people were only going to make life less helpful. This means no updates at all ever from me on progress on anything im doing, its painfull on more than just forum fronts. You guys can discuss this all you want Ill look occassionally but no real updates and the direction is now heading totally away from what you have seen, it would have been good release the final Oldschool mameox build I did but that is being killed off now as we speak (you can ask a few around here they know whats happening with my thoughts and directions and allways claim to know, just ask them whats happening and trust they them they are nice people with no movtives or underhanded ways just plain honest people )
Enkak Posted October 31, 2009 Author Posted October 31, 2009 (edited) I'm not sure what 'helpful friends' are you talking about, but anyway, it's your emulator, your work and so on. In the end, it's your decision, so good luck in your projects and things you decide to do in the future. Life's too short to worry about trivial things and emulators should be used to have a fun and relive memories, not to make your 'real' life more difficult. peace. Edited October 31, 2009 by Enkak
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 no worries :)good luck to you as well.... PS if you hex edit mamedox.xbe of mamedox to have the save game save name as coinops you should be able to run CoinOPS launcher with manfactures but it will only play mamedox games it looks like you can just change the version number in romstatus.xml and then change the skin elemnt to point to version in stead of manufacture (would be nice to have a switch ) but its a quick d it yourself hack that will work no worries by looks
Enkak Posted November 1, 2009 Author Posted November 1, 2009 (edited) Hmm ok, i will have to try that, thx. Btw, i'm thinking i could have found some sort of bug yesterday, regarding this same kind of info. I'm not sure if it's related to the number of games, but when i made a dvd with 1040 games, everything was fine. After i did another version, that now has 1050 games, the genre info doen't appear and always gives an 'invalid' error if you press 'Y' to see the games by manufacturer on the frontend. I tried 2 dvds, and always the same. Weird. Edited November 1, 2009 by Enkak
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 1, 2009 Posted November 1, 2009 read the readme FAQ its one of the FAQs...ive fixed it now (its becaause you are not shutting it down correctly or launching a game and it isnt saved on exit...using IGR or turning off not using shutdown....ive now set it to save after scannning for rom names)
Enkak Posted November 1, 2009 Author Posted November 1, 2009 (edited) Hmm, but what i'm talking about happens after i clean everything (delete udata and tdata saves) and go for testing a new dvd/build of coinops with 1050 (or more) games. Basically, when loading for the first time coinops now on those new dvds with 1050 games, the genre info doesn't appear correctly. The first time you load appears as 'unknown' and the second time doesn't appear at all. That didn't happen on the ones with 1040 games or less, since i always used the emulator the same way untill now. Maybe it's a coincidence, not sure at the moment. PS: This solution: "Q - I cant see the Catagories of my games what do I doA - Press START on the games selection page and select Scan All Your Games this is sometimes required after a fresh start" doesn't work also. weird Edited November 1, 2009 by Enkak
BritneysPAIRS Posted November 2, 2009 Posted November 2, 2009 no idea sorry I dont test off DVD I run 1400 games on my Showcase at present with no issues with genre
