Wanted to say how much I love the DKAFE...Ive had it for a couple of years and watching it get better and better is a blast, as Donkey Kong is my favorite gaming character...A couple of question I have for you, in the romlist_addon I notice quite a few games I would like to add to the playing field, if I was to change the slot number from 9999 to a available to slot number, would it then appear (Example adding NES: Donkey Kong Junior Math) and if so, does it stay in the same spot on the csv file or do I have to move it to the appropriate line.....and also kind of on the same line....I want to add Donkey Kong Country 2, do I just add the rom to the snes directory and maybe copy and paste the SNESDKC line and just change a couple of the things to match DKC2
Thanks and keep up the great work
Hey, great to hear you're loving DKAFE.
Yes, you can go ahead and change the slot number from 9999 to an available slot number - or replace an existing slot number. That will drop the game into the playfield and can be launched directly rather than from the menu. A couple of things will be missing though. 1) The text description of the game 2) the game icon. You will see the default game icon and that might not bother you. You can add your own icon into /artwork/icon/shell using the same name as the rom file. Same with the text description which can be added to dkafe\patch\gametext if you really want to see that. The text has max line with of 55 chars.
and Yes, copy the settings from another SNES entry and place your file into snes roms folder, ensuring you use snes_ filename prefix.
The order of entries in romlist and romlist_addon csv files is not important.
Good luck!
Maybe I should make another add-on pack for the DKC games.
