Hola!! Este es el mejor Front End que he visto visualmente impresionante estaría genial que abran un sub Foro dedicado al mismo, **** editado por administracion ****
Aparte lo estoy modificando estéticamente, muuuy de a poco pero espero lograr un skin lo suficientemente bueno como para postearlo si es que lo quieren.

**** editado por administracion ****

Gracias

**** editado por admon ****

no se pueden postear claves de registro de programas de pago.
por favor no las pidais EN EL FORO

""Aparte lo estoy modificando estéticamente, muuuy de a poco pero espero lograr un skin lo suficientemente bueno como para postearlo si es que lo quieren"".

ok, entendi que pedias lo "otro" que ofrecia angelus, mis disculpas.

no te preocupes

Pues cuando tengas el skin avisanos.

Por el skin cuando este terminado se los paso además iré poniendo aquí imágenes de cómo se ve de tanto en tanto y para Gonzo te comento que por ahora los emuladores que he probado funcionan perfecto, solo asegúrate de configurar el emulador antes de lanzarlo con el FE , para el pinball solo tuve que cambiar en la configuración del Maximus una opción donde se indica si quieres usar los path completos o cortos, de corto a largo y nada mas…
