M.E.S.S.-ed Utility Released!

This thing uses the vast databases included with the M.E.S.S. emulator to manage your roms and artwork files for any system emulated by mess. It can also be used as a dat generator for misc emulators like visual pinball. It does far too many things for me to explain here, so check the readme for more info.

Go get it on the misc utilities page.

Web Launcher 2.0 Released

What's New
==========
2.0

-Added better parsing options. You can now bypass the text files completely adn type the url directly from the command prompt.

-Added a "-resolution" option. It can be passed through the command line or on the second line of the txt file.

-Removed scrollbars from the form. Now games look much better.


I've included some sample txt files so you can get the hang of it. Check the included readme for further information. I believe at this point this app is actually useable on an arcade cab. A list of web-based games could be added to the site if anyone is willing to compile a list (hint, hint)
