Title: Using Mamewah 1.63. to display/create an "All Consoles" Group
Post by: november on June 30, 2008, 12:08:25 am

I'm not sure how I would go about doing this.  Anywhere care to help?

At first I didn't think this was possible until I saw someone mention something similar in another thread.

List:

FE - Mamewah 1.63
BE - MameUI32 and MESS0125

I'll be adding a few more for GBA and other consoles.

I'd like to get this console list going and also possibly make it sort by console, if that's even possible.

Code: [Select]

Group.ini

Mamewah now also allows for you to group your Emulators, for example, have all your Arcade emulators together and all of your Console emulators together.

To do this, create a [groupname].ini file in the \mamewah\config folder. The file will include the emulator names (same as the ini filename in its folder) to include in the group.
Here is an example Arcade.ini:

mame
zinc
model2

Once you have created the group.ini files, you will have an option in the menu to change the group. Within the group, you can select the Platform/Emulator.

Note: It seems if you specify non existing emulator names in the group.ini file, Mamewah will not start. Make sure you are using the same name as the emulators .ini file.
