Excited to try it out now , but i have a question.

I downloaded your GDMENUCARDMANAGER and have put the folders (tools/menu_data/ box and art dat) in the root.

Only have to "run" the program but i cant find an exe file. I might be doing wrong here, looking at the wrong place or something but please advise <3

Make sure you download from the releases pane, I think it's on the right when viewing github on desktop. Looks like you want the win-x64.zip

Thanks , I take a look right after gym

Menu seems to work great on pal console but when I run any game the screen goes all messed up and is black and white. Sort of like what old out of region (NTSC) consoles used to look like when used on a pal TV without a converter. Regular GDMENU works absolutely fin as it always did.

Interesting, I'll try to see but I don't have a pal console to check
