Client Update 7/5/2015

  • Improved Steam game videos take up more of the cabinet screen space.
  • Added "Custom Shortcuts" to the filters of the File Open Browse dialog. This allows a desktop shortcut to have custom launch options added to its target field, which is required to launch games like SMITE.
  • Improved startup times.
  • Improved the speed and responsiveness of the embeded web browser.
  • Fixed an issue that prevented players from setting certain console commands in AArcade's launch options.
  • Improved the stability of all multi-threaded features such as: image downloading & Windows browse/save dialogs.
  • Added a "Save As" dialog to the embedded web browser.
  • Added the ability to download files to your PC from the embedded web browser (you always get the "Save As" prompt first.)
  • Added CoolText to the Internet menu.
  • Added automatic spawning of downloaded logos from CoolText.com.
  • Added a "Please try again" message for when downloading a logo from CoolText.com fails.
  • Added "Load Batch Size" to the Arcade Options menu. It controls how many items get loaded before a loading progress update is shown. Cranking it up to MAX will disable progress updates all together, for the fastest possible load times, but will cause the AArcade window to appear unresponsive sometimes.
  • Added the launch option +workshop to AArcade to enable/disable Steam workshop features (for debugging). By default, workshop is always enabled. To disable it, use +workshop 0 in your launch options. Only do this if you are trying to troubleshoot very long startup times.
  • Fixed an issue that would cause games with apostrophes in their title to fail at finding artwork on the TheGamesDb.net.
  • Fixed the Oculus Share spawner to work with VR experiences that have no preview video.
