ArcadeOS and mame
Velcro:
I looked everywhere for an answer and found only more people with my problem but no solution. Here it is, I run ArcadeOS and windows mame (too many reasons why I'm not using DOS mame) and when I run a game from ArcadeOS everything is good, it's when I exit that it minimizes ArcadeOS until I click it or Alt+TAB. But that is not the ideal solution for an arcade cabinet.
Does anyone know how to make AOS pop itself back up after running a game?
Thanks

So you have AOS running full screen and every thing is fine. You pick a game to run and everything is fine. You press the escape key once, and when the game exits, AOS minimizes?
I don't have that problem with AOS. Are you running AOS from a .pif file? Check to make sure it's set to "full screen" and maximized.

CHECK!
I am running it from a shortcut file that is placed in the startup menu, but yes fullscreen and maximized are CHECKED!

If I were you I would forget about ArcadeOS. It's not that good. Id look elsewhere for a better frontend ( GameLauncer hint hint).
