This is purely an update from my last post on the MMCE version. For those who are purely agitated by the quick scrolling action of the arrow keys, I have a found a solution.
Open up the “MangaMeeyaCE.ini” file in wordpad (or notepad) and scroll down to section titled “[Scroll]” and replace the HorzDistance and VertDistance to 50 or less in contrast to 100, so that program does not immediately travel to the next unviewed section. Frankly, what it does is instead of traveling the full distance, the program will only travel half of that so the reader can read the rest of the word bubbles within the comic.
And for those who would like to view comics as their actual size without the program expanding the picture or or cropping itself to the original size of that picture, I suggest clicking on the “Scale(S)” dropdown menu and selecting Actual size.
Again, I strongly suggest to play around with the MMCE features before throwing this program away for the more traditional comic app (CDisplay unofficial, ComicRack, etc). Also, I would like to hear more comments from the readers about what features they liked or would like from this program and I will check to see if that feature was already included and how to do it. Aside from that, keep on reading comics, manga, graphic novels, etc.
For those who do not know or have this awesome image viewing progam, here is my other post on MMCE, containing my explanation of my supposed “fix” in the comments section.
Fantastic program, it really is. Ever considered continuing the development of it? 🙂
I never really developed the program itself. I only explored the program and tinkered with the config files. The development for this great application is long dead.
Well, one can hope someone’ll pick it up.
I’m betting it’s not being picked up because people don’t know about it.
Or it’s all in Japanese? I don’t know, but it’s far superior to most others 🙂
I hope so too. The program was originally all in Japanese, but a group of people (don’t know exactly who) translated the whole program to spread the awesomeness of this application to others.
The main reason why this program didn’t do too well in Japan was because the people there thought it was too complicated, which equates to very poor sales.
Hi,
Are there any settings that anyone can recommend? i am using scaling option Linear Interpolation and No sharpness filter.
Btw will there be any new versions? and does this software have a homepage?
Thanx a lot for the tip on scrolling.
I’ve switched over to MangaMeeya (english version) about 2 years ago after my CDisplayEx crashed and wouldn’t load again. I really like it, except MM won’t read any file that has ‘ aposthophe in it’s title or if it’s in a folder with ‘ in it’s title, for example “H’el on Earth”. CDisplay read files with ‘ without problems. Also, I miss the contrast fix option.
Have you tried using the latest version of mangameeya? http://www.mydailymanga.com/2011/01/17/mangameeya-for-windows-vista-7-users/
Also try to avoid using “illegal filename characters” since not all applications are optimized to ignore them. http://www.mtu.edu/umc/services/web/cms/characters-avoid/
Importing the old config (ini) files into the new mangameeya also works.
