Title: Don's HyperSpin List Generator 2.1 released
Post by: emb on May 21, 2012, 11:22:18 pm

To all HyperSpin users:

In case you have been using the pre 1.0 versions, I just released version 2.1.

(http://honerbrink.com/wp-content/uploads/2012/02/2.1-1024x644.png)

Some of the major changes include:

Changes from 2.0.1 to 2.1

• Columns for # players, # buttons, controls, system type, emulation status (MAME only)
• Ability to search by ANY column
• Ability to show/hide columns
• Alternating row colors
• Couple bug fixes (one of them includes the repeat popup for invalid ROMs).

Changes from 1.0 to 2.0

• Completely new user interface (it was needed for the new features).
• Ability to load in your existing HyperSpin XML file into your favorites.
• Table-based design. You can sort by any column, and move the columns around (Just like an excel spreadsheet). Want to hide all your BIOS images? Sort by Genre, select all the BIOS games then move them to the exclude list!
• See the size of games in your list.
• You can now see game descriptions, genre, clone information, year, manufacturer, rating,  and whether the game could be found for each list.
• Built-in auditor while customizing your list. Easily see which games are missing wheels, artwork, and themes.
• Searching! Search the names/descriptions for a particular keyword (e.g. search for “Metal Slug” or “(USA)”).
• Inverted searching! Only show the list of games that do NOT match the given search string.
• Misnamed/Missing auditor – Find out which games exist in your directory and are not in your HyperSpin list; or find out what games in the HyperSpin masterlist that could not be found.
• Changed some terminology. (Exclude is now known as Ignored, Custom is know known as Favorites).
• Added descriptions to help with the user experience

Changes from 0.1 to 1.0

• Added a progress bar.
• Added-click option to scan/autoselect ROMs in your list that are not in the master list.
• Added a prompt to remind you to save your config file before closing.
• Added check to make sure you are not overwriting your master list when exporting.
• Added resize and scrolling support for the windows.
• Internal code cleanup.
