Editing Genres in Mala
« on: September 20, 2006, 11:51:59 pm »
Is there a way to combine the genres in Mala?  There are so many fighting categories on my cab, I would really like to consolidate them.  Thank you for any help!

Using the game list editor you can make a custom list.
Add in the games of the genres you want

Hmmm ok thanks.  I must have done something wrong.  I added the genres of fighting games I wanted but when I start Mala they are still broken up into many different categories (Fighting 2d, Fighting 3d, etc etc)

I don't know what you are doing wrong.

You can add as many genres as you want to your custom list

MaLa will start up on the last list you had displayed when you quit MaLa.

  To switch game list you can assign keys or right click the mouse and select one.

Its a good idea to keep you master/all games list. But there is an option to hide that if you want
