Hi all, i've just started using Rominator and have renamed my games. The problem now is, I have a folder where I keep my old sav files, but these are still with the old names and I can't seem to find a solution within Rominator to have these renamed as well. Solution please...

Forget Rominator. Go into the folder where your saves are stored, click once to highlight the save, then either right click then select 'Rename' or, click on the save again. It will let you rename it. Tada, you now have the computer knowlegde of a 6 year old.

Oh, and also... http://www.google.co.uk/search?q=how+to+re...GL_enGB283GB284 Because that was SO hard. Yeah. Lazy so and sos.

If the rom file names are the same as the save name you can use EZ-Trim+ to rename both, if they're not the same then are you able to rename them back to their original names easily?

Yey, I now have a 6years' old computer knowledge. Learned from someone with an overall 6years' old intelligence.

I will send you my 160+ saves and you can rename them all one by one for me. Thanks in advance.

This is an option, but then files are in EZtrim+ naming mask. Also: Rominator keeps sav files in unique folders per game. All in all quite a hassle

Maybe you shouldn't have renamed the ROMs? Why do you have over 160 saves? Been pirating, have we? And you're just proving my point about you being a lazy sod by telling me that I'm going to rename them. I renamed my ROMs and Saves, why can't you?

    Well, from what I've heard from my parents, he had a seizure last night, perhaps an epileptic episode, fucking died, had a near death experience, my dad called the paramedics, they showed up, took him to the hospital, and he woke up covered in tubes, and started complaining.

    He couldn't eat until after his MRI, when he had a bomb pop.
