Should the Open ROM dialog be converted to MFC?| See post below for details. | Convert it to MFC. I never use all that stuff anyway. |

| In the next version of PST, I plan to convert a few of the currently existing windows to MFC. I am considering changing the Open ROM / Load Game dialog to a standard MFC Open File window, but this will eliminate some of the selections and information presented in the current dialog. I have only a slight preference here towards the MFC widget. Its more standard. ---Evil Peer |

| from a programming standpoint, isn't there a way for you to be able to display the same information in using MFC? (yes, this is coming from a person who hasn't used your program) well, if the answer to that question is no, i guess MFC does take away some power users had... | |||

I like it the way it is. No use changing it unless it's a requirement. And I don't see any need for it to be changed.  |

| More standard has never meant more useful. Keep it the way it is please. | |||

I like the standard, straight forward dialog best, and always thought Snes9x was a bit 'odd' for not using it. If it's possible to add it in and leave the old one, perhaps there could be two open dialog options, old and new. If that's not feasible, then just ignore all that blabber and take this as a 'standard' vote.  |

| The question is... why would you actually do work to remove features? That seems counter productive in every way. If it doesn't add anything... and removes stuff... and doesn't give a speed increase... Then I don't see any logical reason to make the change. I mean really... what pros are there for the switch? |

Originally posted by Disch From a user's perspective, probably none at all. The only "feature" that will be added with this would be that it will act the same way as the normal file dialog (stretchable window; copy, cut, paste, delete functions; different file view functions; etc). From a programmer's perspective, giving the axe to a couple of seldom-used features to make it more standard is a bit more desirable. And there's also the fact that this version was never intended to replace your standard copy of the emulator. But as I said, I only have a slight preference in the matter. I, personally, never really look at the ROM header information, especially since 99% of my ROMs are zipped. And I never switch any of the ROM settings from "Auto". But I realize this does not apply to everyone, hence the poll. ---Evil Peer (edited by Evil Peer on 06-05-04 05:59 PM) |

| Features like forcing the interleave mode may be seldom used, but when they are needed, they are a life saver! Unless you can find a better way to auto-detect the SuperFX interleave mode, so the force features are not required, DO NOT remove it. With this one, I will have to agree with Disch that it's more counter-productive than anything. (edited by Parasyte on 06-05-04 07:21 PM) |

| I don't really see much point in doing this, since you would personally have to do work to change a dialogue that the Snes9x team is probably never going to remove in their official releases anyway. It's been in there as long as I've used it. (4-5 years I think). | |||

| Well, since Chickenlump and I seem to be in the extreme minority here, I will not chuck the dialog. I may (need to) modify it a bit when I convert it to a regular MFC dialog though. (If you do not understand the distinction there, the poll was about a replacement with something different, while this is a conversion of the currently existing.) Any changes that might be made will be minor though, and certainly will not axe features. Why am I doing this MFC work? The code is not so well organized and very hard to follow in its current form. Simply separating the windows into distinct files and MFC forms would go a long way to making the program more readable and easier to update. Course, that in itself is no small task. ---Evil Peer |
