15th January 2006 - GameEx 5.37 - lots of new features
- The initial production release of GameExtender is here.
- As far as I know it's a world first for front ends.
- When enabled GameEx runs a tiny web server when running, this outputs sort of like an LCD Display on steroids, on either the same pc, or any networked or internet worked PC.
- You can see exactly what's going on with GameEx from a web browser, or via the included viewer, which gives a full screen output.
- You have to check it out.
- In addition, I believe another world first for an integrated front end is the ability to view the control panel while MAME is playing, by pressing a defined key (default is L). Thanks to HeadKaze for the idea, help and inspiration.
- If that's not enough, in advanced emulator config ini's you can now specify up to 10 buttons.
- NOTE: GameExtender only works with registered versions of GameEx.
