New version of mGalaxy soon?

TheDoctor · Thu Dec 24, 2015 4:33 pm

Hi, looking at the version history, 5.5 was release about a year ago now, is there a new version in the works?

Hi,

Yes, there's a new version on the go, mGalaxy is still actively under development!

The new version includes:
- mGalaxy_Runway: new system setup behavior. You now drag and drop the system you need (as many instance as you want) to build your system list. This will allow you, for instance, to create 3 different MAME systems!
- RetroArch added to available systems
- Screensaver (Attract Mode)
- Localization (french, german, spanish, portuguese)
- Select systems window: filters on arcade/computer/console
- Child lock settings
- Compatibility with all screen resolution (e.g. 640x480px)
- mGalaxy_Runway: database manager and creator

This last point being the most important needs more time to implement!

Merry Xmas,

What will the attract mode consist of? Hopefully loading random games with inactivity?

Nice new features. I'm looking to use mGalaxy on my new cabinet.
Any idea when the new version is coming?

I myself would like to release it as soon as possible ;-)
I think that this imminent now...but if you're in a hurry I can send you a beta version (with all the new additions but the database creator)!

Oh, no hurry. But if you are looking for people to test it I'd be willing.

Thanks

I would love a copy! I already have my database created, so as long as it is compatible with 5.5 I am willing to try it out with the new features.

Yeah my 5.5 is looking great. I wouldn't mind the new features as well.

Keep un mind that i offer my help in coding if needed. I can even help without sources I guess for some parts, like some special functions/modules. Its written in C# isn't it ?

Is getting the Beta without the Database still available. I'm very impatient !! Lmao and I need something to keep me busy

It's been a year since I inquired about the Ultimarc Ultrastik 360 being natively supported in mGalaxy. Please tell me this was managed. After a year I am finally going to get around to replacing my 4-way w/ a U360 and would love for it to auto load maps for specific joy types (2-Way "Galaga", Angled 4-Way "Q*Bert", 4-Way "DK", 360 "Food Fight", etc...)

If this IS a part of the new version. I'd also LOOOOOVE a beta w/o Database. lol

P.S. - I boot into my Favorites. If the screensaver played attracts of just those games...that would be so awesome.
