Game Explorer Editor

Post by Davros »

For those that dont know it allows you to edit the game explorer in vista/win 7.
http://gameeditor.webnode.com/
The problem is when I added game number 97 game explorer showed just the icon not the box art,
so I loaded the editor to add boxart and it doesnt have enough memory to load all the games.
does anyone know of an alternative ?

thanks in advance

start -- games

edit: it has finally added the missing box art except for soldier of fortune which is still displayed as an icon
"soldier of fortune greatest hits" it insists on calling it.
It is still missing 150 games

I personally think the Games Explorer is worthless. I think I used it once before I figured out how to force Crysis to start in 64-bit mode.

Steam is my Game Explorer, I always have it open, its a click away and it works with all games by adding them to the GUI, also lets you chat in game.

And sort your games into groups.

It's mine now, too. Up until about 2009 I was still only using Steam for Valve games, but now I own around 120 games on Steam. I haven't added any non-Steam games to it, though, but honestly they are not games I play that much anymore.

Although some games are weird. For example, Dawn of War 2: Retribution will not let me open the Steam overlay. It even has a button for it on the main menu, but nothing happens when I click it. Bizarre.
