Emulaxian 0.5 virtual 3d arcade released!

what is new:

-This release features a new frontend interface I am working on where you can select games in a virtual 3d arcade. Games are placed in a circle with the camera facing towards them. When the camera rotates a cabinet is added in the direction the camera is moved and removed from the other side. This way you can rotate indefinately through any size gamelist. You view the virtual arcade by changing the camera position. Besides rotating horizontally for selecting games you can rotate the camera vertically, move the camera up and down and most importent zoom in and out on the cabinets. This will also be a part of my upcoming Robocade cabinet/frontend... (hint /robocade ;-) )

You will need a fast computer with a recent vidcard with apporx 32mb vidioram to get good framerates. It works perfect on my geforce 2mx!

-Visual Pinball support, the frontend can hide the loading of vp and vp can be closed from the frontend.
The next version will also feature a virtual "pinball" arcade, see here for a wip pic: http://www.i-modernist.com/fe3darcade.jpg

-Automatic resizing. When enabled this options will automatically resize the frontend to your desktop settings.
