instead of post game log files always popping up y not put a box under the user lists section that shows your most recent games and ifyou click on them it will show you the log file
I.E
Mslug-log file played from 00:00 to 00:00
mvsc-log file played from 00:00 to 00:00
and that way that annoying notepad file doesnt popup and its SUPER annoying and this shoulnt be that hard to add i think lol well give me feedback on my idea and i will insert it under this

This is a good point about the logs. Thanks for posting about this.
The way the log works now is, all game logging is written to mamehub\mamelog.txt. This file gets overwritten every time a new game is started or joined. Presumably this was done to avoid unnecessary accumulation of log files chewing up disk space.
As for the pop-up behaviour, I believe this occurs so that if there is an error, the user will see it (at the bottom) in the resulting pop-up log. (for example: an error 17 'failure to connect' when trying to connect to a game).
Having the pop-up also makes it easier to retain the log. Normally, if I want to retain a log, I save it under a different name from the resulting pop-up. This was commonly needed in the earlier days of MAMEHub when Digitalghost needed lots of user logs to be submitted to find bugs. Perhaps this is outdated now.
I will see if there is something that can be done to update this behaviour*.
* by modifying MAMEHub.py myself and submitting my change to Digitalghost for review & approval. This is something any of us who know Python can do, fyi.

spoot ended up changing log functionality recently so that it no longer pops up after each game session.
More details will eventually be available in the news section of the forum.
