akator Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 (edited) Thanks for all of the great work on this! Unfortunately, today's update keeps freezing during the download process and never makes it to installation. Running Windows 7 64-bit. EDIT: Nevermind, on the third try it succeeded Edited July 29, 2014 by akator Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mclaneinc Posted July 29, 2014 Share Posted July 29, 2014 Most likely server busy, worked like a charm here... Must dig out more maps for Starwindz, only trouble is that its school holidays here and we are renting a car this week to go out and about so I'll be real busy this week..

Subby Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 I use this mostly with a PC connected to my TV and a wireless keyboard. (The wireless mouse doesn't work so good. ) So I have a Feature Request - Improved keyboard support. When I press Tab or Shift-Tab, it does tab forward/backward, but in a non-intuitive (consistent?) way. - Hot-keys Being able to press CTRL-G to jump to the game listing and be able to arrow up and down and then press CTRL-P (or whatever) to Play would be great.

I have made a test version of a8_best_gamepack.exe which has new hotkeys (Tab, Shift-Tab, CTRL-G and CTRL-P). Please extract the attached file to gamepack folder and test it. This feature would be added in the official update. a8_best_gamepack_exe_1.1.6-test1.zip Edited August 7, 2014 by starwindz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Subby Posted August 7, 2014 Share Posted August 7, 2014 That works Great! However, unfortunately, I think I was not very clear in my Tab request, sorry. What I should have said was, in my opinion, the Tab key should advance the cursor one field at a time in the "English reading style" (left to right, top to bottom). Meaning that if the cursor starts in the Game List column and tab is pressed it will go to the Speed Search, then to Add to Fav. button, then to Atarimania Page button, etc. I do understand that there might be programmatic issues that prevent changing it. I am happy with the changes you just made. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

starwindz Posted August 8, 2014 Author Share Posted August 8, 2014 New option will be added in the next update. If Random Game Option is set to Commented Game Only, Random Game only shows games which have atarimania users' comments. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
