Useless? emuguy would beg to differ. Yeah, no one likes feature-creep, but it'd only be another checkbox at the most, probably under the Interface tab in the Configure menu.

If you wanted to be even more low-key, just make it a command-line argument. That's what I always do when I hack my emulators. If it's not FLTK, I usually don't have the time to mess around with the GUI APIs anyway.

Is thist he correct one?

I am running Vista 32 bit.

I don't know, looks like it should be good though. Try it, and if it doesn't work, you can always uninstall it and try something else.

Yeah, just like the 500 other requests for features which no one but one random guy (no offense) needs. At some point people wonder "why the fuck do we have 500 checkboxes?" and still would keep asking about adding new stuff, lol.
In other words, -1

Fine. I'll make my own fork of Dolphin. I'll call it something edgy too, like xDolphin9000, because that's how many feature requests we'll accept for every release. It'll be messy and a nightmare to maintain, but the people will love it.

Sarcasm aside, it's not like I'm for adding more stuff to Dolphin. Already said I don't like feature-creep, it's just that recently I've noticed more than a couple of people asking how to disable the yellow text on the forums.

lol i well i was hoping there would be some checkbox to remove it, i didn't mean it like it was absolutely necessary.

Btw, there are more people than me who wants this feature.

Just to mention a few examples. There are probably many more, though. So, that's not 1 random guy, but 5 random guys, who wants the text removed.

5 Out of 27434 to be exact

The text isnt that annoying to most people and besides it usually displays stuff such as wiimote connection, saved game & save state success so if you dont see you may not know if something goes wrong so for me i'm against removing it

I see that an option to remove this annoying yellow text have been implemented, many thanks to the administrator or whoever did this.
