GameLists: Multiple emuls in same list work-around solution

<< < (22/68) > >>

Hey loadman,

Any chance the next version will have built in support for merged emulator lists? I hate having Dragon's Lair separate from mame games. I know I could do this hack (and may if I ever get around to it), but it would be so nice to have direct support for it.

Not the next version but will be on the Wish List. I would try the work-around for now as that works well

As a software/config flunky, let me endorse this method as a good way to combine multiple MAME + Daphne games (and whatever else you want) into 1 list.  It's not too hard after you start working on it, and SGT & Loadman are always patient & helpful w/ people like me, who have lots of basic questions.  It should take only a few hours to figure out, max.

Bottom line: if I can do it, then anybody can do it.  :)

Doh!  If I had known you could have done this kind of stuff in MaLa, I probably wouldn't have written my own frontend from scratch just to support multiple emulators in a single list... Oh well! ;)

TheManuel:
Hi SGT.

I hope you are still keeping an eye on this topic.
If I have merged ROM's, can I still do this or am I basically screwed?

I think MALA does not separate out all the clones from merged set but to use the method described here, I have to let Mala generate the game list.

I can always un-merge the set but if there is a way to make it work as is, I would like to know.

Thanks.
