Yes, that's what happens. While random, it's frequent enough to be an issue. However, I only use mGalaxy with MAME, so it might happen on other systems.Aeliss wrote: So you have the bug only on mame, but randomly ?

Re: mGalaxy is Minimizing on Game Exit
Hi, Any news about this error? It's very annoying... I'm investigating on it...but can't reproduce your problem. If you want, I could send you a beta of the new version of mGalaxy to test!? You'll likely see my reply in the other bug thread about mGalaxy "freezing" on exit, but I thought I would ...

Re: mGalaxy 7.6 Crashing on Game Exit Regularly
Everything points to mGalaxy having a problem in this specific scenario, almost like it's frozen and preventing MAME from exiting. I still believe that it's not a mGalaxy problem. It is not 'freezing'! When you launch a game mGalaxy enters a 'wait' state. It will 'awake' when the launched ...

Re: Small Update Wish for My Arcade Room Theme
If I could locate the art file, I'd blur it myself in Photoshop, but I can't. As far as an official wish, perhaps a version with it blurred as a simple solution, and for something more interactive, a random static cabinet swap to change things up. "Unfortunately" the background is not a bitmap file ...

Small Update Wish for My Arcade Room Theme
When the "My Arcade Room" theme came out, I thought I was completely satisfied, but over time there's one thing that bugs me a little bit with this theme. It's the Joust cabinet. I understand the theme is an old school arcade, and that's why I love it, but with that being the only "background" game ...

This Is Awesome - Starcade Intro Movies
Hopefully this is ok to post as it's not really "piracy" per se, as it's not the whole episode, but someone on Reddit posted a collection of intro videos for MAME arcade games here: https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/19mDRelW5dm8yxdlmeEOL5JOHJ0hnpSY- What makes this unique, and IMO REALLY ...

Re: mGalaxy 7.6 Crashing on Game Exit Regularly
@WISHITWAS1984 Any news? Just curious to know if you could find Mame process in the task manager and if the use of a script (as proposed in the previous post) fixed your problem Sorry, was not able to do this over the weekend. I have this tab open and will definitely give it a shot as soon as I can.

Re: Hi Score Menu WITHIN mGalaxy UNCONNECTED to MAME!!
I can see two ways of implementing it, please tell me the one you would prefer: The "manual" way: the player enters his score Pro: Can work with all platforms Cons: We will need buttons to edit entries (type error, score entry error) The player might cheat ;) The "automatic" way: using 'hi2txt' Ref ...

Re: Hi Score Menu WITHIN mGalaxy UNCONNECTED to MAME!!
I'm bumping this because I still think this would be a fantastic addition to mGalaxy. Currently I only know if "iScored" and "Pindigo". iScored being web-based and "Pindigo"....for some reason....only supporting pinball games. I wouldn't mind Pindigo since it's an app, but it's pointless without ...

Re: mGalaxy needs more updates
More updates doesn't mean better. For me mGalaxy is near perfect I'm finding this late, but I also agree. I've been using mGalaxy since before Launchbox existed. It was a MAME frontend and the best one as it was clean, well designed, and not a bloated mess like all of the other options. By being ...

Re: mGalaxy 7.6 Crashing on Game Exit Regularly
On the crash popup, you have not a small link on bottom "view problem details" ? No. Just "Close Program" and "Wait for Program to Respond" I believe that mGalaxy is not crashing...but simply waiting for Mame to quit!! When you quit a game, and that mGalaxy seems crashing, call the "task manager ...

Re: mGalaxy 7.6 Crashing on Game Exit Regularly
As the subject says, I have mGalaxy 7.6 installed and it regularly crashes on exiting a game, BUT it only happens at the beginning of the rom load. If I wait for the rom to fully load, then a few extra seconds...say, 5-10, then I can nearly always exit just fine. Also, when I say "regularly" I mean ...

Can You Skip MAME Intro/Startup?
On most games there's an intro/bootup sequence that must be endured before you can start playing. For example, ROM checks, or for games like Galaga, the garbled screen as the "machine" turns on. Now I completely understand why this happens. We're emulating the actual machine and this is a ...
