GameEx 9.45 Released
This is a major release and would not have been possible without the hard work of Flash (AKA GreatGlash) and Headkaze.
The changes are fully listed below but the two big enhancments are that now version 4 themes have been fully implemented, giving GameEx powerfull skinning capabilites that we would have all liked from the beginning. The Theme Editor has been updated thanks to the hard work of Headkaze. In addition database support has been greatly improved within GameEx and Flash has very kindly updated 90% of the databases with the following been completely finalised - Saturn, Colecovision, PC-FX, Dreamcast, and a brand new Visual Pinball database. Flash was also instrumental in fixing and perfecting the database support in GameEx.
- Version 4 themes
- Theme Editor version 2
- Support second image
- Run at any reslution with rescaling
- Convert between all theme versions and resize. The Theme Editor will now allow you to create a new version of and convert any existing gameEx theme.
- Databases
- Includes Flash's new dbases.
- New Biography page when using v3/v4 themes
- When loading databases (for the fist time, prior to caching), GameEx will try an exact match of the rom first before trying with removed brackets and removed version number etc.
- Setting in advanced config to use the name field from the database instead of the formatted rom name. If on this will override a pre set map file.
- Fixes various database issues
- Emulator Groups now fully support databases
- Fixes all known issues with database support
- Fixes/Changes
- Please wait animation now shows when extracting games when using zip/7-zip support.
- Fixes to snap matching
- Several Performance/Caching enhancements

- Fixes issue where emulator list and database wouldn't use cache when using 7-zip/zip support

As always feedback and requests are actively encouraged.

DVD Delays, Fixed
I just wanted to let everyone know that we have had a few delays in getting DVD orders out in a timely fashion the last two weeks. A couple of things have contributed to this, had two seperate orders of “printable” media come in that are not “printable” nothing like wasting hard earned cash on discs ya dont need. So on the third order I finally have the right stuff. Also I have been neck deep buried in the new HyperSpin launch so I was a little distracted. Good thing Shannon rung my neck to get her stocked up again, I lost all track of time. So anyway if you have not recieved your order yet they should be going in the mail today. And I have updated with the newer nes set.
My apologies, trying to get far enough ahead of it so I don’t get behind anymore.

GameEx 9.43 released
- New Features:
- Thanks to the hard work of Flash and Headkaze for providing the tools, the first of the updated databases using the new format are in this release. These are for the Sega Saturn and NEC PC-FX
- I realised today that the MAME manufacturer list and filter had really become a useless feature due to the huge amount of MAME games now supported and the data accuracy issues in the MAME XML output. Therefore GameEx now performs formating on the Manufacturer, resulting in less manufacturers in the list and more games grouped under each one as well as fixing the data accuracy issues in recent MAME builds. This results in a smaller list making the feature once again worth having hopefully. An update list is required
- Changes:
- For new installs by default GameEx will not set the resolution to 800x600 but will use the current windows desktop resolution. This is to provide a better initial experience for new users, and should only be a problem on really low end machines set at high resolutions
- There is a slight change to the 2d animations. Hopefully for the better. Feedback welcome
- When choosing the Lite or MAME only option on install, ebooks and search will be disabled. The theme is set at Media Center instead of MCE Glossy
- Fixes:
- GameEx should be more usable in touch screen setups as the issue where clicking the page down error did not return focus to the list from the menu with the default V3 themes is fixed
- Fixes issue where the menu would not be visible after updating the MAME list
- Fixes ICONS only being created on a restart when the first MAME list update is done
