EmuLoader 5.7.2 released

[Robert]

Front End

 

Fixed

 

Image resampler is updated correctly when switching between view modes (classic, layouts) and it is applied to all panels when in layouts view mode

Selecting the already selected image resampler, the item was being set as unchecked

Internet link for MAWS game info updated to the mameworld.info server

Expand/collapse buttons on left panel tree were being disabled after toggling alpha blend

Image resampler correctly set at startup

Access violation on scan for missing images, missing MAMu_ icons, not used images and not used MAMu_ icons

Fatality! Evil Bug Wins... Game was not being properly re-selected after changing games filters...

CHD filename was not being shown correctly at game details screen if CHD name also contains the parent name ("_parentchd_" tag)

Year and manufacturer were not being detected on bios entries, leaving these infos blank in the games list (MAME based emulators)

Features to create .ini files for the left panel were missing a few games that has no information ("Left Panel" main menu)

 

Changed

 

Removed minimum size limitation from the screenshots panel

Main menu / popup menus font changed from "Segoe UI" to "Trebuchet MS"

Updated the convert snapshots to EL format feature. Only works with the "Gamename/Increment" naming format

 

Improved

 

Alpha blend and background color on all TreeView lists that contain a games list are updated to match the settings of the main games list, except background image (hidden games list, MAMu_ missing icons, left panel editor, games list font settings and some ListView lists)

This also improves visibility if using dark background color

Selection bars colors and texts optimized for a large range of background colorsSome code merging to remove duplicated functions/procedures

Added a button in left panel editor's toolbar to restore default sizes for window, panels and columns width

 

Added

 

Button at preferences screen, "Folders" tab: "Setup Image Categories Folders", for those who cannot find the folder setup screen in main menu "Images"

Setting: "White Text Color (For Dark Backgrounds)" that will paint selected text in white-ish instead of the blue/red colors. It works only when alpha blend is enabled (preferences screen)

New games filter in main tool bar buttons: "Game Orientation" (Horizontal / Vertical)

New menu item in game documents popup menu (mouse right-click): "Customize Panel". A shortcut for those that do not know about it

Support for MAME v0.130... CHD files can be at any folder now. The old "romfolder\gamename\gamefile.chd" method is still supported. I'm moving my 3 images to "c:\mame_roms\chd_files\" folder

NOTE: you still do not need to set folders for CHD files if using the old method

A few more options to create .ini files for the left panel:

- Screen refresh rate

- Year

- Manufacturer
