Title: How to create a display list of machines ?
Post by: Sebiohazard on October 06, 2019, 04:22:18 AM

Good morning all 8)

I would like to create a display list to include systems but I do not see how...

I would like to include all the machines of the brand COMMODORE for example (A500 A1200 ACD32 ...)

How to proceed ? Thanks best regards !

Could you please be more specific (for me anyway).

You can generate a list for each system easily. If you are wanting to split them up by machine (C64 , C128, ect.) just separate the roms into separate folders and generate them as separate systems.

If you are wanting to separate them but have them under one "Commodore" system folder I think that depends on the theme.

If that is what you want I'll have to pass that off it someone who knows a little more about that :)

to get an impression, how filter works:
here (http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=1165.0)

here (http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=3013.msg21116#msg21116)

just edit your romlist and set specific amiga system as an category (c64, c128 and so on) and switch via hotkey between filters. See (http://forum.attractmode.org/index.php?topic=3013.msg21116#msg21116)

but all commodore / amiga systems are to much.
so it's probably better to create a display per system (one for c64, one for cd32 and so on).

You can also create a separate romlist for each commodore system (one for Amiga, one for C64 etc) and then create a new romlist from Emulators / Generate collections rom list, which will allow you to create a display with all Amiga, C64 romlists together. The only issue is that you can't add/remove romlists to a created collection romlist, but you have to re-do it from scratch
