QUOTE said:Nice app though how do i get multi games folder i have roms on a DVD and roms in a Roms folder i use windows it says in the manual you can have multi folder but i cant seem to get anyalso merry christmas.
Yep, all you need to do is select the 'root' folder of all the games. If your games are on disc organized into different folders from there, you would set the game location to the root of your disc. It will then scan up to 5 subfolders deep for games within the location you provided. Merry Christmas to you too, I'm at work, nothing's happening here, so I'll be programming Rominator today
QUOTEYeah it's a very nice application, love using it. It has made my life a lot easier.
Also, my gratitude to hankchill for taking the time to respond to any (stupid) questions I have posed via mail.
Some questions:Just to be clear: the program is awesome and extremely usable as is, only attempting to help improving it
- * If you select multiple roms (10 or so) and then do Actions > rZip, the program closes after zipping the final rom. No idea if that's intended or not. There were one or 2 occasions where it didn't happen. I'm thinking that it closes if you include the last rom from your list.
* The new right click menu is very cool, but (though this is probably intended behavior) if you have multiple selected roms, any action from the right click menu only applies to the rom you right click on, not the entire selection.
* Do you think there will be ever a possibility that a screenshot (or several) of the game can be included as well?
* Is it feasible to add some kind of custom action to the menu's? Being able to assemble command lines and having filename, rom id, game name etc as possible variables would be very handy. I would use it to add a link to release sites with more rom info & screenshots. Unfortunately they don't seem to use the actual rom ID, so that might be hard to accomplish since there's no way of knowing the correct URL.
• I'll check into the contextual menu (right click)... Last I checked it worked, but things have been modified after adding it, so bugs do arise
• Screenshots is a possibility
• Yeah, this suggestion would be really difficult to implement, and if it were to be done, it would have to be catering to a specific website, only because of the scheme they use for the game URL's. It's different for every site. If a site used the game's number in the scheme, that would be easy, but yes, it is hard
Any and All suggestions are always welcome
