Great job TJC!!! Now I know that project is going to be hard to top, but tell us, what's next? |

TopJimmyCooks, the main gamelist in MALA needs to be refreshed when you make changes to the xml for them to take effect. Not sure if the changes flow to the smaller gamelists either. |
| TopJimmyCooks:
Thats good info, I always forget about that. Will try again accordingly. Thanks. |

Ugh. messed with this some more. changed orientation value in mame xml for this rom to "1" "90" "180" etc from "0" saved mame.xml. made sure mala was pointed to that mame .xml Refresh game list was grayed out in the options popup on mala. went into options/gamelist and did the update meta data thing. didn't work. why is my refresh game list always grayed out? (oh yeah, I took a 6 month break on this issue) |

I don't think you can refresh the smaller lists that way. Although the gamelist is created using info from the xml, once it is created, Mala only uses the gamelist. So if the xml thing isn't working, you could change the gamelist itself. (this might actually be easier if changing multiple games on a smaller list) This is all theory. I haven't actually done it. :P Use mlgconverter.exe from this thread: http://forum.arcadecontrols.com/index.php/topic,101104.0.html That will convert it to a plain text .ini file that you can modify. Make your changes and convert it back. I've converted gamelists just to see what information was stored, but I've never tried making changes and converting them back. I do remember that the gamelist only stores Vertical or Horizontal, not 270, 180, etc. |
