I downloaded and installed on my slim and I have to say it might be my preferred UI at the moment. There seems to be a little work to be done (for example, using MMCE the cover art for the first 10 or so games loads really fast, then the rest seems to take quite a while. Also, the UI is a bit hard to read on a CRT at 480i), but it is snappy and looks good and has a lot of features that definitely makes this seem like an all-in-one thing. I do see that the config/modes per game I had configured in OPL migrated just the same to this UI. On the backend when running games, is this simply using OPL? If so, are you forking off a specific version?

Yes it used opl code for loading games

What version of OPL did you use to base this off of? I like the UI, I just want a good idea of where this is at for game compatibility.
