Chin Music Ex 1.0

Chin Music 1.0

Link

ChinmusicEx (1.0)



A tool for manipulating window output.


Developed and maintained by Joel Longanecker (Joel.longanecker@gmail.com)


Requirements: 


* windows xp / 7
* .NET 4.0




Usage:


* ChinMusicEx.exe <path-to-program> <command-line-options>


ChinMusicEx.exe must reside in a directory with no spaces in the path. I'm working on this. So for now, place it somewhere like c:\ChinMusic\*


It's also helpfull to have the path to chinmusic.exe added to the PATH environment varible to simplify use. To quit chinmusic, use q. To rotate the window, use r. These are hardcoded for now. All other settings are editable in ChinMusicEx.exe.XML


Make sure the emulator you are working with meets the following criteria. Tweak as needed.


It is preferable that the emulator writes to a GDI bitmap rather than directly to the screen. You may need to use older plugins. The project 64 directx 6 plugin works fine, the directx 9 one does not.


The emulator must run in windowed mode, full screen can really break shit bad.


Your task bar might dissapear and not come back. If that happens, just run ChinMusicEx again, and quit with q.


Joystick input works... As far as I have tested.


Your feedback is important. Tell me what works and what doesn't.

  1. I will give you the benefit of the doubt and assume you are quite good with coding. Although explaining how to use them I feel you may lack a bit.

  2. I shouldn't do documentation when I'm tired, LOL.
