I've released the first version now:

Enjoy!

Looks good, I've added it to the GameBase wiki.

Does it only run GB64, or other GameBase databases too?

[mrsid]

It's designed for GB64 only, but someone might take the source and do something else with it.
I personally have only interest in GB64, and I won't spend time on other platform support.

Thank you for this but I have problems to get the "play game" button to work.

I copied all the ZIP-Files (games) into the "special" games-directory into the database-directory, shown at the GameBase64 homepage for each game, but the "Play Game" button is still grey.

Any idea whats wrong?!

I'm using VICE as emulator and both apps (GB64 Browser and VICE) are installed in my Mac application folder.

Well I went to try this But as I am only running OSX 10.5.8 and this works at 10.6 I could not try it..

Ok, I have tested GameBase64 Explorer on a different Mac (OSX 10.6.3) and I got the same problem (Play Game button doesn't work).

In addition the GB64 Explorer didn't recognise the available games on the bottom that I add manually (sorry but I don't want so download the 5GB Torrent) into the special directory.

The preferences looks ok for me. VICE and Sidplay are shown.

[EDIT]
Now I use a different emulator (Power64) - same problem...

I hope that somebody can help me.
