I have just updated the MAME plug'n play module . If you tried it and got an Error about the "FullList.txt" , you can take the new one. If you didn't have error you don't need. |

Youki: Does AtomicFE have the ability to be controlled by another application? Maybe with the integration of VBScript? Here are 2 examples: 1) This came up a while ago as a hack for MAMEWAH. The user wanted to highlight a game, press a button, then have a new gamelist re-filer on the fly based on the selected games category/control/screen/whatever. He made a batch file that he configured MAMEWAH to run with a certain keypress, and that batch file created the MAMEWAH LST file and named it appropriately for a "hidden" list. The problem was he couldn't make MAMEWAH jump to that list automatically - it required another keypress from the user. 2) I have an external touchpanel LCD (an entire computer, actually) that I will use in my cab. I have a program that will watch for instructions from the network using a protocol I designed. This program, on the main computer, will then carry out the specified action. So, for example, if I displayed a virtual keyboard on the TP and had it send the pressed letter to the main computer, I'd then like to jump to that letter in my game list. Assuming SendKey will work (will it work with AtomicFE?) it will still be delayed. I was hoping for a more solid implementation, you know, like an API (using COM maybe?). What do you think? |

--- Quote ---Does AtomicFE have the ability to be controlled by another application? --- End quote --- For now, not really , but it is doable for a future version. But for your point 1 : I think what you want to do it already perfectly doable thanks to my scripting engine (And without the need to use a .Bat file!!). But could explain why the user need to do that? For the point 2 : not possible yet. In that case, effectly Atomic would need to have the abitility to be controlled by another application. I don't think the sendkey works with Atomic. (in early version of Atomic , surely, but not since few versions). An Api would be Idea. I have already create an API for the script engine. But in your case, i think it would be better to consider Atomic as a Windows Services. It could listen a the http port (or another port) and react to external command. But writing that, i just think to something, i think you could do what you want with the current version and the scriptEngine. In fact you could communicate with Atomic using simple file. -Your Application write a file with the command to execute -A script in Atomic read that file, and perform the Adhoc action!! I think it is doable. :) |
