Sweet. I´ll have to look into this and maybe post some news. 8) Gotta spread the word and all. Esp when it´s something that combines two things I love: emulation and skinning! :D

Hiya CTRW, <br />Just to make sure ya know, it is a frontend for ZSnes not MAME. Wasn&acute;t sure if ya knew that. And be sure to dl the latest beta version from the MAMETrix message board at : http://www.mametrix.com/forum in the ZFE beta section. <br /> <br />Thanks for your comments, and I hope to see ya on the boards. ;) <br />Stat <br />

Sounds cool indeed. Though zSnes must be one of the games that (if you ask me) doesn&acute;t really need a front end, &acute;cause unlike some other emulators, it works mighty fine when you use your tv as display. <br /> <br />/me adds this one to the list of apps to check out

Hi craeonics, <br />I would agree that ZSnes doesn&acute;t really need a basic &acute;just launch it&acute; frontend. That is why I have tried very hard to add a lot of extra functionality that ZSnes does not support, such as rom auditing, automatic snapshot creation, individual game setup etc. <br /> <br />Hope you&acute;ll agree with me when you try it out. ;) <br />

Problem: no default skin or documentation. <br /> <br /> I&acute;m working on an article, and I don&acute;t see how it can be skinned without at least one (if not both) of those.

Hi CTRW, <br />Yeah, I&acute;m sorry about the confusion. I&acute;m still working on the app for the moment, and I have yet to update the documentation. Basically you need to d/l the latest beta build from the message board, and d/l one or more of the WIP skins in the same forum. Extract ZFE to a directory and create a &acute;skins&acute; subdir there. Copy all the skin zipfiles there, and rename 1 of them to &acute;default.zip&acute;. Then when you run ZFE, this skin will be used. You can also select other skins by clicking the &acute;Skins&acute; button. <br /> <br />Obviously once I have finished v1.2, I will create a single zip with documentation and skin paks. Again, sorry for the hassle. <br /> <br />Lataz, <br />Stat <br />

Well, you really should have these things on the main page. I was going to post an article, but I can&acute;t just link back to your forums and tell ppl to go find it. If you put the app and a sample skin on the page, I&acute;ll finish the article and post it everywhere. That includes announcing that it is a beta in search of skinners. Otherwise, I&acute;m going to wait until you finish and put it on the main page.
