Maximus FE....Adding Games To Your List..How?
« on: January 21, 2009, 09:06:21 pm »
Hey guys, I installed the Maximus FE on my Mame cab and configured my game list and set everything up. I want to add some more games, but I don't want to have to completely redo my games list. How do I add them without having to redo the list? Is there a way? Thanks in advance. (Sorry, I know I should have posted this in the 'Software' thread)

I think it is the 5 key to add games.  You can change the key in the configurations.

I'm not at my cab right now...but I think studmuff is right.... you have the 5, 6, 7 & 8 keys...
Hit Ctrl+P to go to your preferences and open the tabs at the top right...it has the instructions...

5 adds a game to your favorites ( i believe)...7 I think deletes the game from the list and 8 changes emulators...and there is a way to send games from one list to another with a key... MA is really easy...

BUT like I said read the instructions...I may not be right myself, since I am away from my cab...

Thanks guys. I figured it out. It was a lot more complicated than I though. Here is how you have to do it...

1. Save your current game list as "Favorites"

2. Rescan Media

3. Select Mame though the FE.

4. When the game list appears, scroll down to whatever game you want to add, press 6, and you'll hear a little sound made by the FE.

5. Press Ctrl P, go back to the game config menu, click on the Favorites list and the new game should be there.

6. Move the Favorites list up above the Games list.

7. Go back into Mame through the FE and the new addition should be in the list.
