Title: How to add sub menu inside emulators
Post by: cmac86 on October 18, 2017, 03:51:09 PM
Hey guys, I've been searching the web and forums but cant find any directions or info on how to add menus inside a menu.
Example would be SNES display Menu that shows wheel art, obviously the art links to roms. I want to know how to add a link to another menu/sub menu that leads to a new section, Example SNES Hacks. With that having wheel art of my choosing. I read via google that it was implemented but I cannot find anywhere here on the forum with instructions. I have searched but nothing seems to pop up on the matter.

I would really appreciate some help or a link to instructions.

Thanks alot guys

I have looked into this. I am very confused as this option changes alot of things in attract mode. Basically I wanted to add a new sub section/category under the sections I've already created. As I have the usual emulator sections snes, nes etc I wanted to add sections in those sections (preferably at the top above the roms) with wheel art directing to snes hacks. nes hacks etc. I think if there is an option to start a fresh il give it ago but if not ill wait until the new options are added to AM.
