GoodWindows V 1.5 Webpage: http://www.emuhq.com/goodwindows/ Good Utiliies front-end IN THIS FILE WHEN I REFER TO Goodxxxx or Goodxxxx.exe I'm talking about Cowering's utilities, NOT GOODWINDOW Really Important: 1. Try to always use the latest Goodxxxx utility. 2. If it's the first time you use GoodWindows.exe you'll have to download & unzip the bin.zip File from the goodwindows web page. Create a directory named bin in the goodwindows directory & Unzip the 3 dll in the zip file in it. (Or just unzip them with the directory option). -----What's new----- v 1.5 -- Now you can copy the "file he need" generated by a compare, also support collections usings Sep_ & Dirs. (Access it through the file menu on the compare windows) -- Added support for GoodCol,Good2600 & goodgbx to the latest engine of GoodTool (Sep_, Dirs etc.) -- Added ability to filter (through a popup menu) the 3 file listing on the Main Windows -- Major change in the layout, doesn't start maximized in 800x600, but doesn't take the whole screen anymore. THank to Karavidas for the new layout. -- I've forgot to enabled some command supported by the New GoodNes & GoodCpc(not so new), fixed now -- When The SEP_ Option shouldn't be enabled , it is Invisible (lot easier to know if you can use it or not) -- Fixed the bug where the last line of any miss.txt being writen twice in the GoodMiss.txt file (when using the Listing of all Missing Roms features) -- More Bug Fixes.

All the credit goes to him since he had the original idea... and on my computer it goes hella faster then the original GoodCompare (let me know if it's slower on your... I'll try to fix that). BTW the Make the "they need.bat isn't in yet ). You can also export a BPFTP download file from the result of the Compare. -- Changed the caption of the Animation Windows -- Directory for each Game System is saved & loaded. -- Added a missing roms counter that tell you how many roms you are missing of total of roms -- Added a module to put all xxxmiss.txt in one file. V 1.31 -- Added *Dupes.txt to the files that GoodWindows can show. -- Changed to code of the animation so it won't be always on top.(Still Work to do) -- Added an About box with link to the website & my email. -- Addes Support for the SEPx option (New in the latest GoodCPC) & the dirs option now work on GoodCPC (wasn't available in GoodCPC before).

V 1.2 -- Allow you to scan cd ( In this case the GoodXXXX.exe put the text file in C:\ ) ! Warning ! only the list, scan & scan new option can be used and this take a lot of time (you may think that good windows is frozen but it is not..., Goodxxxx.exe is still running in the background) -- Added support for GoodINTV.exe (that why you have to delete the settings.ini) -- Added features: Allow to explore the directory you wanna scan. -- Fixed bug that didn't let user scan other directory than the one that GoodXXXX.exe was in (again). -- Fixed bug that could occur if the needed dll where not found (now they are automaticaly copied to the system dir if they are not already there) -- Fixed file naming bugs. -- Fixed changing directory before choosing a console bug. -- Fixed bug that would'nt let someone open xxxhave.txt after changing directory (if the file is available).

He's a beta tester and helped me a lot. Cowering for is great tools, Emuhq, SandyPup & All of you who support GoodWindows. If you have any idea of what I could implement in the front-end or find a bug, email me at Master@emuhq.com with your idea. Please try to stay realistic. If you want a feature like adding a rom to a good database this isn't possible since the Good utility doesn't support this feature. thank.
