Hey volks :-)
I am using the Vintage Collection frontend from HarrisonHacks as my main "system" and i am fine with it. As other systems like "CP78", "Motion Blue" etc have more/other systems integrated, i would like to "transform" them into my Vintage Collection. Goal is to combine them and get an "all-in-one"-System. As "CP78" uses rocketlauncher for (almost?) all emulators, i run into some difficulties trying to import a system into my vintage collection and get it to work flawlessly...
I copied the "emulator".cfg, the romlist, the menu-art in attract-folder, made a display entry in attract.cfg, copied the whole "rom" folder including menu-art into my vintage collection/Games-folder, changed all paths to the right direction and, if needed, the new emulator to Vintage Collection/Systems-folder. But it seems, i am "always" missing some rocketlaucher and/or emu "configs"...
Could you please guide me on what rocketlauncher-files to copy and/or modify for one system to achive that? Am i missing something else?
thank you so much :-)

To get it working, it's probably the best, to seperate your plan in two steps:
Step 1:
Get your romfiles, artworks working in AM (without rocketlauncher):
Like here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Pbke1B3HDcA)
Overwrite autogenerated artwork, with your artwork to scraper folder (it's necessary, that folder got same name like display-name. And artwork-names got same name like romfile-name.
your_AM_folder\scraper\your_display_name\flyer, wheel and so on
Step 2:
get it working with rocketlauncher:
Like here (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=taQBIiesjBE)
Please note the rocketlauncher plugin in AM:
start AM > press TAB-key > Plug-Ins > RocketLauncher
