Steam Integration Questions

$

I'm still pretty new to GameEx, but I've had good success getting things setup.  I'm looking for some direction on accomplishing the following two items regarding Steam integration:

  • Filtering games in the Steam list
  • Displaying a custom control panel pic before launching Steam game (like with MAME)

For the filtering, I would like to be able to filter out games that don't work well with arcade controls (Tankstick) without uninstalling them.  Is there something in GameEx or Steam that would let me accomplish this?  If there's no good way to filter, are there any good workarounds?

 

Regarding the control panel display, I've had good success using the wrappers and AutoHotkey to remap keys on a per-game basis, but there's a lot of variability in how the controls are setup, so I would like to display a control panel before launching the game (for guests, mostly).  Is there someway to use the wrappers or the "Launch Before" configuration to delay the launching of the Steam game and show a per-game control panel pic?

 

What is the difference between Steam wrappers and wrappers2 directories?

 

Thanks kindly for the help.  I really like everything GameEx does to make a good arcade cabinet experience.
