Photon V3 Manual

Below are the manual pages from our old version of Photon Game Manager, V3. V3 is a usable product but it has many quirks with the interface which simply do not compare to the user-friendliness of V4. V3 also has a lot less features than V4 does and the graphics engine isn't quite as advanced so doesn't look as good and is slower than V4. So why not help support me by buying a license key for V4 and get a better product.

SilentRunner

Function

The function of this program is to basically use barely any resources and to sit in background while the user is playing games. Its main function is to detect when a game has finished so images can be unmounted and batch files can be run, and its other function is to take screen shots of games when the global hotkey is pressed.

Interface

It is very rare to notice the interface but it looks like below:


If it fails to detect that your game is closed then you will see this window.
Clicking 'End' button manually forces it to run the designated batch files and unmount images as it would if it had detected the game closing.

Other Instances of SilentRunner

You may also notice SilentRunner windows when viewing walkthroughs or patches, this is a separate program that's sole purpose is to allow the user to easily reopen FrontEnd, so click on 'Done' to do so.
