Anyone using this option? In the wiki it reads: group?.ini: allowing you to combine multiple emulators to one list. Does this mean I can have all my roms in one list? |

No. I use a feature and I believe it is what your referring to. You create ini files. I have ones like so: nintendo.ini sega.ini computer.ini handhelds.ini All.ini Working.ini ...and so forth. Think of them as categories (MameWAH calls the "Groups") These files go in the config folder. Then in the menuing system you will see an option "Select Group" and when you choose it it will list the ini files. When you choose one of the ini file you will only be able to select platforms that appear in the current "group" ini file, either through the menu system or when cycling with hotkeys. In my nintnedo.ini file I have Nintnedo Super Nintnedo Nintendo 64 Gameboy Gameboy Color Gameboy Advance Supe Gameboy It is simply a text file and it contents, these names, correspond to the folder names for each platform (emulator). These are the folder names within the config folder. It nice is your working on setting up and emulator and it's not ready for cabinet use yet. I have one called All.ini and one one called working.ini. When guest visit I invoke the working.ini group so they don't end up on a platform I haven't finished setting up yet. Does that make sense? Good Luck, John |

Ya. It makes perfect sense. Do you think that feature is ever going to be implemented? I know he's talked about adding it a while ago but I don't know if it's still on it's to do list. In my opinion that's the only thing mamewah is missing to be considered perfect. |

If you mean combining roms from multiple emu's into one list, I am not sure but would guess not. That is just my opinion though. John |
