Hi,
A patch is on line on my web site : http://www.atomicfe.com

Youki,
Thanks for all the hard work, it is appreciated. I've been looking for a way to start a specific game on startup, and was excited to try the new patch.
Unfortunately the patch does not work for me. AtomicFE crashes and windows reports an error when I try to load a game.
I am running XP sp2 with mame32, AMD 1.7gHz, 512m ram, ATI 9800 Pro
I went back to the original AtomicFE files and it works again.

What was the error message from windows?
When you specified the name of the game to lauch at start , you gave it the Rom name (not the game name) without the extension?

AtoMic.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvienience.
Error Signature
AppName: atomic.exe AppVer: 0.0.0.0 ModName: atomic.exe
ModVer: 0.0.0.0 Offset 0000b81a

I did not specify a rom name, At the time I launced AtomicFE from within windows, using the default layout, it showed me the few roms I have in the left pane, I double clicked MsPacMan, and then I get the "prepare for battle" sound then the crash.
If I replace the patch files with the original ones, this same process works just fine.
I hope this helps, let me know if you have more questions.
Thanks again

Oups... i see what i did.
So , try that, in AtomicManager , on the "general tab" on the "controles" zone , select a "mouse /trackball" or "Mouse / Spinner" even if you don't use that.
It should solve your problem.
Sorry... i'm going to fix that as soon as possible and update the patch.
thanks a lot for your feedback! :)

Ok, i fixed it!.. I updated the Patch on my web site.
Now , the problem should be solved. Just download again the patch.
thanks for all.

Yep, that did it. It's working well now.
Does the help menu cover how to change the layout? I browsed through it but I'm not sure.
Thanks again!

Yes, the help should cover that.
But you want to know , how to make a new layout ?

COOL!
