    Zombeaver's PCSX2 Configs / Simple 1-Click Installs With PCSX2 Configurator

    in Emulation

    Honestly, it's on the backburner at the moment as a few of the PCSX2 devs/mods thoroughly pissed me off a couple months back and it made me less inclined to work on this. I made the mistake of actually trying to work with them for a while to bring a lot of the issues that these configs are designed to address to their attention, and it got me literally nothing but grief. I don't really want to get into it but suffice it to say that they take an aggressively unhelpful approach to development in a number of ways, to the extent that I literally want nothing to do with them. I will get back to fixing their shit for them eventually, but I have a couple other projects that have taken over my project time in the interim.

    that's sad to hear! If developers were more open minded, we would have been in a way way better place now. It took them years to add a must-have & a duhh feature like "per game configuration" so I'm not surprised. They are close to finish their new stable version and it seems a little promising. But I'm more looking forward to your tool than anything else in the emulation field currently haha I know nothing about coding, but maybe chat GPT can help these days haha

    @Fredyyy Depends on what you are trying to achieve and where seeing performance choke point. I just wanted boost to scrolling performance and with the cache of images that fits the bill with how setup in the original post.  If you have tons of space on your SSD then that is easier then the symbolic link and you get overall program benefit of SSD performance.  Some quick testing on my setups though didn't indicate it was worth eating up SSD space (other than cache) and I preferred keeping my "game drive" completely independent of ? drive where possible (~20,000 game setup).  Plus, even with the emulators and ROMs on another drive your images and videos for LB are now on your SSD (not just the cache files). Those can grow be pretty big (~ 0.5 TB on my setup).  So my take is try it with the cache on SSD and see if that is suitable for needs. It is quicker/easier to setup and if change mind easy enough to remove the symbolic link and go with full SSD install. 

    Thank you for the detailed response! I have only 500GB SSD and 1 TB of HDD. My total gaming set is around 800GB. I have windows 10 on the SSD and launchbox on the 1TB HDD. PC boot fast, but LB boot slow. I watched a youtube video of someone playing zelda wii u on an SSD and on a HDD. There was a noticeable difference. 

    so my thought was to keep the majority of the roms on HDD. Move launchbox to SSD so hopefully LB can boot faster and also ONLY moving the power demanding roms like (Wii U, ps3, wii) to SSD.

    Creating folders automatically that matches my rom file

    True when the app was working yesterday I saw a new icon that says unregister. However I don't see it anymore. When I re-downloaded the file and unzipped I only get 3 files, (config, changelog, exe of the app, and help), I run the exe file as an administrator, but doesn't do anything and the unregister icon doesn't show up either.  Is there a way to remove/modify something in the registry?

     

    Readme says:    To silently uninstall use the -su switch like this:         c:\path\to\Files2Folder.exe -su

    what does -su mean?

    Thank you the program worked great! I had the program on my desktop and I just i reorganized my files and now when I rightclick file2folder. I get a message a message: this  app doesn't have an app associated with it. I tried to reinstall the program again and place it in its original place and it doesn't work. The app doesn't have a regualr uninstaller. Any help to fix the issue, either erase it entirely and re installing it or just fixing what I currently have? thank you in advance

    I'm in the same boat. I already have launchbox on my HDD. My plan was to uninstall LB and reinstall it on my SSD then transfer all files to SSD, except for emulators and roms (keep them on HDD). Then I came across this tutorial. So, i don't know if this method replace the necessity to move LB to SSD or if this is something different. I appreciate any feedback and help! thank you!

    Hi, I have a lot of dreamcast rom that I would like to be put in their own folder that has the same names as the roms. I remember long time ago, I used a program that does this automatically for me instead of create each folder individually and rename it. Does anyone know a program that can do that? Thank you in advance!
