Title: Atomic FE games list
Post by: langdoguk on January 19, 2007, 06:12:38 pm

I'm trying to sort out my games list , I've followed the document page but when I get to games list there are no games on it , (all working fine to play).I want to exclude lots of games ( mahjong, quiz ,etc ,) and also I can't  set up a favourites list.

Probably something simple but I'm not very clued up at this yet  :dunno

Are you sure you correctly your ROMS Folder before going to the GameList Tab?

For the favorite, on the "options" tab, then on the "options1" subtab , simply check : Enable Favorite List

then Once on the front end , by default :

Player1 Button1 -> Add the selected  game to favorite list
Player1 Button3 -> Switch to Favorite list / Normal List
Player1 Button2 -> remove a game from Favorite list

Hi , I've set my rom path in the :atomic manager / folders / main / roms folder to :C:\AtomicFE_v018\plugnplay\arcades_simple\roms    .  Don't know if this is right ? but I'm not sure how to save it.

For the favorites I enable the favorites list in the options 1 tab but that also won't stay saved , when I try and add a game nothing happens , is it just ctrl button to add , alt button to delete and space bar to switch to favorites list . nothing happens with any of them .

sorry to be a pain  :-[

Did you click on SAVE on AtomicManager?

Stupid question but are you sure to have roms in your C:\AtomicFE_v018\plugnplay\arcades_simple\roms    folder?

Are you trying to customize the arcade simple module?  In that case you have to open the file C:\AtomicFE_v018\plugnplay\arcades_simple\arcade.cfg  in AtomicManager. Not Another one.

Check if your files are not in read only mode for any reasons.

Damm broadband problems :hissy:

When I enable favorites and click save I get the 'save as' window opening and what file name to save it as?????
Thought it would just save new settings.

Yeh my roms are in  C:\AtomicFE_v018\plugnplay\arcades_simple\roms    folder?
 , they work great I'm just trying to set up a favorites list and delete certain game types ( mahjong etc ) ,don't want my son seeing naked women yet :censored:
it would take me years to go through them one by one :banghead:

cheers Craig

You don't have to go through them one by one.  Use this to delete them all:
