Hey there, I've been working on MaLa for the last couple of days and have been pretty happy with it so far. It has a few weird things that take a bit to figure out, but so far I've had success in figuring out how to do most things...except one.
How do I refresh a list of games for 'other emulators'? I started with a few PSX ISO's and then customized the game list to fix the names and cut out duplicates. But now that I"ve added a few more games in the directory structure, I can't figure out how to add them to the games list. Clicking on "Add Game" doesn't work, and all the refresh options seem to be greyed out. I can't figure out how to do it from within mala game list either.
Can anyone help me out? I'm using MaLa 1.62g, by way. And here's a picture of MaLa + my custom artwork in action...
EDIT: I'm also having issues with adding more than one "Other Emu" The second 'other emu' I add one shows up as blank in MaLa Game List and Mala Tree, and no games are listed in Mala Game List. :(
-
with mala running go to the game list you want refreshed and right click and hit refresh main game list
-
That option is greyed out for me. I'm using a Tree view where there is a main screen, a MAME-only game list submenu and a Playstation-only game list submenu.
-
i have my carcade set up in tree view about 12 emulators using zebra's layout i think it's called and i still have the option to refresh main game list maybe someone more advanced can shed some light here
but poke around in the options under game list
-
when i check these two option like shown in the pic the refresh main game list is grayed out
plus right click in mala under select game list see if all games is selected should be if its not
-
Well, I figured it out. I had playstation games in its own game list instead of all games. Deleting that and going back to 'all games' fixed that.
But now I have another problem. I'm trying to add SNES games to the games I already have, and it's not showing up in the games list editor.
What's going on _here_?

i get the same thing ever since i went to 1.62 and i also get an error saying unable to load emulator file
-
You're correct. Deep-sixing my 1.62g config and reverting to the last stable version of MaLa worked out like a champ.
Now the only issue is trying to get emulators like WinUAE that require disk swapping to work...but that's a whole 'nother can of worms. Thanks for your help.

Yeah the next Beta will handle the emu file changes a bit better
