Title: Romlist help
Post by: clockman on July 26, 2021, 07:18:47 AM

So i scrape the roms and i get the rom names, but i want to edit the romlist to have game info story/synopsis info for the games. How would i edit the list to get it to show up?

#Name;Title;Emulator;CloneOf;Year;Manufacturer;Category;Players;Rotation;Control;Status;DisplayCount;DisplayType;AltRomname;AltTitle;Extra;Buttons;Series;Language;Region;Rating
Bonk's Adventure (USA);Bonk's Adventure (USA);NEC Turbografx-16;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;
Bonk's Revenge (USA);Bonk's Revenge (USA);NEC Turbografx-16;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;;

I want the all the game info story/synopsis to show p for the theme i am using. By the way i am using attractmode for windows 10 pc?

This feature exists and is called Game Overview but it doesn't store the information in the romlists. It creates text files for each game under the corresponding folders under \attractmode\scraper\. To use this you need to use a layout that supports it or modify your layout to do so.
