Hello  ;)

I have some ideas for a new version mGalaxy:

- Support for 1080p HDTVs
- Support for DirectX 10 in Windows 7 (to not have to install dx9c)
- The ability to change the image no screenshot on your own
 
mGalaxy runway:
- Support for custom joypad
- Change the color or font size
- Emu paths can be copied to path but you can not paste
- Options on / off for the interface show: timer, players, sound, emu name (sega genesis 1.0, etc.

The question on my part. Work began on the new version? such as what you can expect ??

Emu paths can be copied to path but you can not paste!
Just curious to know: (nearly) every emu path is unique, the same for screenshots, roms, movies.
Why would you need to do copy/paste between those fields? (excepted for an emulator which works for 2 systems...another reason?)

I m agree with him, sometime I just need to change 1 letter eg "c:/folder1/folder2/folder3/Emulator_V1" to emulator V2 and just for that I need to travel in my DDR.

All my screenshoot are in the same directory.
F:\emulateur\Mgalaxy\snapsemul\3do
F:\emulateur\Mgalaxy\snapsemul\PSX
ect....

Will be faster for me if the edit could be modifiable, but I think the dev have choose this system to avoid user error.

"Support for DirectX 10 in Windows 7 (to not have to install dx9c)" Even if mGalaxy will work fine with directX 10 , you still need to install dx9, somes applications or emulators don't work wthout the DX9 complete version.

For the custom joypad support, IDK if it s a good idea, XBOX360 is a standard support, generics supports work fine but all days you will have someone with a joypad that don't work at 100%. It need lot of work and It will be never perfect. If the devs keep the XBOX360 support, and user take a wrapper like this one (http://code.google.com/p/x360ce/) there will be less compatibilities problems.

Mgalaxy make xbox360 support and X360ce team work for all other support will be compatible with it.

Sometimes as mGalaxy run before displaying the list of games the first flashes quickly perferences window.

I recommend good apps BetterDS3_1.5.3 now I have no problems with my custom joypad

more suggestions:

- Time change that turns on the video
- Windows 8.1 support for broad application tiles: Wide310x150 and Square310x310
- Full portable app without reinstall
