That looks really cool. If you post it up I'll try it in WINE.

For a plain use I did not make the installer: simply make a folder, unzip all, and launch the .exe
Thank you.

You should be prompted if you want to save when you exit the text editor.

Upgraded... issues I've found thus far that maybe you can help with...

(1) ArdadeSD theme (all of them)... the center colored box goes crazy (3-4x speed) after selecting a game and then coming back... then it eventually will slow down... but it's distracting.

(2) I can't get any sounds with Astro Blaster even though I moved over my samples. NO sounds.

(3) It appears that in all other games, my sounds have about a .75 second lag... all of them I've tried thus far...

Any/all help is appreciated of course.

Thanks!

I'll check it out. I haven't noticed any issues with the sound lagging before... not sure what would be going on there.

Yeah, not sure...

I only played 3 or 4 different games, but every one of them exhibited approximately .75 seconds lag ... except Astro Blaster which had no sounds at all (not laser fire, background sounds or vocals).

Here's what I've done:

Installed 3.811 image, used my documented procedure to expand the FAT32 area of the SD memory card (as you're aware), I then copied my BOOT folder from my 3.72 installation to my hard drive... I then copied the ROM folder, SAMPLE folder, and PREVIEWS folder from the hard drive over to the new 3.811 SD memory card.

I went out and installed the card back in the Pi... I then ran the system which found all the ROMS... and came up sideways (my game is a vertical game). I then used the menu to re-load as a vertical configuration. At this point I noticed the Astro Blaster issue. I did NOT notice the lag issue as I truly only played 10 seconds worth of Astro Blaster (with no sound) before I took the card back out and attempted to move over high scores and other things. Which sucks because it would really help if I knew if the sound lag issue was apparent from the moment I first installed the ROMs rather than from something I screwed up in attempting to copy over high scores/settings, etc...
