Need MALA Gamelist help
« on: October 11, 2006, 08:38:58 am »
Hi Guys

I'm having some trouble with game list maintenance for non-mame emulators.

I have a MAME "All Games" list with 5000+ games in it. I like to browse through this list and when I find a game I like, I hit "2" to bring up the menu, navigate to the gamelist option and "add selected game" to my custom "ARCADE" game list. This "ARCADE" game list has only 50 or so games in it at the moment - these are my favourites.

My problem is with the ATARI and NES gamelists. These are the other 2 emulators I have set up on my arcade cabinet. I have the "All Games" lists running for both and created lists  called "ATARI" and "NES", respectively for my favourites. My problem is, when I'm in the "All Games" list for either of these emulators and hit "2", navigate to gamelist option and "add selected game" I get an error that says "Not Possible".

Does MALA support this feature? I can manually go in through the options menu and edit the list with the mouse, but it's a little inconvenient. Am I missing something or does MALA not support this kind of navigation for non-MAME emulators?

Any help would be appreciated
Thanks in advance!

Thanks for the fast response, I'll just wait for the next version, my ATARI and NES lists will be very short anyway, so I'll just set them up manually using the mouse for the time being.

I love this Front End by the way, very easy to set up and an intuitive interface.

Good job!
Cheers
