Scripting / Re: multiple categories for the same game
« on: December 21, 2020, 02:34:25 AM »
that's exactly what i ment by:
if you choose the Platform category you will not get Action 52, only if you go to Platform / Shooter.
tha'ts a sub-category, not multiple categories.
at least that's how it's working for me... maybe there is something im missing..

yes, you can have sub-category. like shooter/adventure. but that just mean you need to go through sub menus to narrow down your choice, it's not the same as having the game in both the shooer category and the adventure category.

Scripting / multiple categories for the same game
« on: December 20, 2020, 05:51:41 AM »
exodos v5 recently came out, and while importing the database to attract mode, i noticed he has multiple genre on most games..
and i got to think about it and realised this is a much better approach.. and AM really doesn't support multiple category very well..

anyway, i came to ask if someone know of a way it can be done.
TIA.

« on: July 03, 2019, 09:19:30 AM »that will be awesome, as emumovies has nice system videos.in display-menu mode i couldn't enable video thumbs from the settings.
i had to change it in this line:
prf.THUMBVIDEO = false
If I got it right from your description this is the intended behavior: when you use AF as displays menu layout, video thumbs are disabled because usually you don't have video thumbs for displays artwork. But then if you enter a display you should see the video thumbs for your games.
What you want is to have video thumbs in the displays list? I can enable it in the next version so you don't have to tweak the layout.nut
another issue i have is random crashes when inactive, but im still not sure if it's AM thing or a theme thing, still checking. any suggestions?

Scripting / Last Played Filter
« on: May 28, 2019, 01:56:53 AM »
im not sure why this is not a feature as it's very easy to implement.
anyway, it is about the only big feature that is missing for me and is very useful imo.
so i wrote a small ahk script (my first time doing ahk) for rocketlauncher that does that.
the script insert a timestamp in your romlist file on the rom line under: "extra" (is this used for anything?).
then you just create a normal filter like any other:
filter "Last Played"
sort_by Extra
reverse_order true
list_limit 10
rule Extra contains 0|1|2|3|4|5|6|7|8|9
if anyone is interested you can download from here: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1f8BXhBYrbOut2g0d5qpSeKMwxoKGZlM7/view?usp=sharing
you need to put it in your RocketLauncher\Lib\User Functions folder and have attract mode set in rockelauncher's general settings as default rom path.
AND PLEASE BACKUP YOUR ROMLIST FOLDER BEFORE USING IT
AM will not show you the game on the filter right after you exit from it, you will need to go back to the display menu or to another display and then back in to your display and the last game will show up.
please tell me if you have any issue/suggestions.
cheers.
