Emu - Raptor 0.75 Released

[ShendoXT]

Changelog:

• Fixed error with "Show splash screen" checkbox.
  
• Fixed error with the "New profile dialog" (the framebar text was always black regardless of the skin).
  
• Few more fixes for "hiding windows".
  
• Added "Relative paths" support (portable version ONLY).
  

I made this version because i haven't released anything for a while...
I'm still working on 0.8 (which i started from scratch), you can see the progress here.

Q: What is the difference between regular and portable version?
A: Portable version uses relative paths which makes the program more flexibile
to a drive letter changes (eg. using Emu - Raptor from an USB flash disk),
however when using portable version you can only use emulators on the same drive as Emu - Raptor.

So if you plan to use Emu - Raptor on the fixed drive use regular version.

For now you can download both versions here, homepage will be updated later.

I think... I'll give this a shot. If it's any good, I'll let my roommate use it, since he's not the best at finding all my emulators... lol.

Edit: I'm rather impressed. Easy to configure and use, ability to add more emulators... very nice. If I had to make one request, it would be...

1) Ability to add more categories, or at least rename the ones already there (like... most Sega emulators going under Misc?!)

Also, is it intentional that after adding or editing an entry, the main window falls "behind" whatever window may be behind it? To be more clear... just open a folder (maximized), then start this program, edit an entry, and hit "OK". Everytime, the main window will fall behind the folder.

In 0.8 you will be able to customize categories, more info can be found here.

I'm aware of that problem, i have been trying to solve it for some time no, i hope that it will be taken care of in 0.8.

Yeah, I tested this out just now. Seems like a fairly decent piece of software. I myself don't have use for it though, I only have couple emus/shortcuts to them, but this is a very good idea for anyone with a bit more emus on the use and want to save shortcut space.

I've been following its development since the first version shendo posted here on the forums, and it's indeed a good program. Unfortunately, it's not my main "emulator-launcher" (well, at least not yet) mainly because of the restriction concerning different categories -- the point noted by Gamesoul Master. Seems that v0.8 will take care of it; at that time I'll see if I'm not used enough to QuickPlay so I can drop it. I honestly find it quite difficult to happen, but only time will tell...

[Gamesoul Master]

I'd have to get used to it myself. I have my emulators divided into 14 different folders, most of them for their own system, though a few are combined (like Game Gear, Sega Master System, and Sega Genesis)... and I have all of the best emulators for each in the Games folder of my Start Menu. But like I said... it'll be useful for my roommate. And... maybe someday I'll use it, if I get to a point where I just feel like changing up things.

Certainly glad to hear about v0.8... I'll be looking forward to it.
