Hi all,

First of all I'm VERY VERY happy that epsxe was revived! :thumb: Kudos to the team and I got so excited I ran and told all my room mates. They told me it was as if I got engaged or something ;) I love EPSXE and have used it for a long time. Its very nice because I haven't had a psx in a long time, and my younger siblings get the Ps2. That said I prefer to play the games on the PC because its more convenient.

Anyways I like to paly in window mode...and often I'm looking at other stuff at the same time like Webpages. I have a USB controller that I play with. Is it possible to have it stay "active" even if I'm not focused on the window? This would allow me to multitask more, which I would definitely enjoy.

I'm still using 1.6 because I use epsxecutor; does 1.7 allow for this feature? Is there a way to do this in 1.6? Thanks =)

If I'm not mistaken, Pete said that ePSXecutor has no big issues with version 1.7

Excellent, but that still doesn't answer the main question =)

I'm the type of "if its not broke don't fix it" type of guy; and things are working well now. When I come onto problems I can't resolve without 1.7 I'll see

No, epsxe does not get controller info when it is not the active screen,.. the plugin does though.....
