Indeed, but do people still use Nebula ?

Is it better than hkaillera?

Kman, why do you have a microwave oven as your desktop picture?! And the fact that you are using VMWare to emulate XP, while using XP..

I think thats a cro lol..

>Is it better than hkaillera?
Dont know. I've only experimented with a couple of arcade emulators like kawaks and nebula and m32k0.65 and 0.67 and fba. Whats so good about that emulator? I remember when I downloaded it last time...it was full of poop graphics with everything brown or poop and could not read romnames properly so i thaught some kid was messing with mame32k background and fonts colors and released them because they thaught it looked cool.

HKaillera was all brown? Never noticed that. You know in any version of mame32k you can change the colors and stuff, but some people put in their own background images (which you can change by deleting or renaming the original background image file found in the bkground folder).

As for Kawaks I haven't used it in a long time, so I don't recall but I don't think it had brown or poop either.

When I say "better" talking about emulators with kaillera support I am basically talking about a few considerations:

-online play stability and features
-offline playability (would I ever want to use this to play games offline?)
-games supported (does it support all the games I play, does it keep up with the latest developments in emulation?)

I agree that Mame is convenient. It has the most games, and it's not true that one emulator HAS to support every game on the planet. Back in the day we used multiple emulators to play a range of arcade games. Now that is still true but Mame has sucked up a lot of that field. If an emulator is better for a certain game, I can't blame people for choosing it.

as for its netplay...ill have a look at it.

[Kurgan]

Whoa. Change the font color to something other than white.

[civilian]

how do I do that??? I was screwing around with it and now it doesnot seem to even display background image.

[Kurgan]

Options----->background image (images are stored in folder you choose, but by default it's hkaillera/bkground (or mame/bkground). You can use virtually any bmp or png image as a background.

Options----->Game list font (or game list clone color)


Hit okay, shut down hkaillera. Then start it up again.
