Title: MAMEwah help; can't remove games from gamelist :(
Post by: TelcoLou on February 01, 2008, 02:21:11 pm

I'm running MAMEwah  v1.62b13 under WINxp, and I'm trying to remove games, one at a time under the gameslist option screen, but it does not respond. The option "remove from list" is there, but I tried pressing "1" to remove it, and later, after I had mapped the "select" key to JOY1 on my gamepad, still no response. Any ideas?

Thanks in advance :)

That doesn't work for the main game list. That option only works if you created a sub list from the main emulator list.

Oh! .... erm, is there an easy way to create a sub-list? I'll only be using MAMEwah as a front-end for MAME ... sorry if this has been covered before  ???

Check the wiki. It's for 1.61 but you'll get the idea.  ;D

Many thanks!! I'll have fun going thru the many hundreds of games that are "unworthy"  ;D

Edit: wow, it works ... turns out I had a "filtered" custom list sitting there the whole time  :P

Just one last question (The wiki wasn't clear enough for my dim-witted brain), how can I set up MAMEwah to start up using my filtered list automatically?

Edit²: Ummm, I think it loaded up my filtered list automatically after I re-started. COOL!! :D :D
