Title: Glauncher for GLaunch
Post by: DaOld Man on August 27, 2006, 11:42:43 pm

Hi all.
If anyone in here is using Glaunch (A very easy to use front end),
I have written a program that allows you to start Glaunch, then shuts down arcade after Glaunch quits.
Requirements:
ATX type power supply on your system.
OS: Win98 thru WinXP
Glaunch already installed and working.
Check it out at:

Great Work.

I would have loved that years ago !!

It  Really needs an app such as yours    :cheers:

I was a Glaunch user for 3.5 years before I switched to another FE.

I used to use a batch file to get the PC to shutdown after quitting Glaunch.

Your App is a lot more Sexy!

FYI ..  I am currently using a 'gamelauncher' style skin on MaLa as I lstill ike that simple layout. Although when Gamecreature finishes my Custom Skin my layout will change and include preview videos. (If anyone cares?  ;)  )

Thanks for the kind comments!
I dont leave the keyboard and mouse connected all the time with my arcade (although I can open the coin door and route the cables through to the motherboard, if the need be), so I liked the simplicity of the GLaunch. I just needed a way to shutdown the arcade after Im finished, but still wanted the option to cancel the shutdown process.
Glauncher was my answer for me.
Im glad you liked it.
Yes, please show us your preview of the Custom Skin.
