[Duke Nukem 1 & 2 from GOG unrecognized]

I tried MS-DOS first and it only finds the original individual releases.  The GOG version released Duke 1 and 2 together in one release.  Unfortunately, it's not on their website anymore to scrape. 

[Duke Nukem 1 & 2 from GOG unrecognized]

I am unable to get metadata of any kind for Duke Nukem 1 & 2 from GOG.  I think it was a popular enough game and it's old enough to have the metadata available for it.  Am I doing something wrong, or is there just no metadata for this title yet?  Thank you for any help you can provide.

[How to update ROM folder path to newer location with updated set?]

Can just run the import on that folder. We don't import the same file twice so you should only see the newer files in the import.

After changing the ROM path, I get a message saying 116 files were found in the selected games that do not exist in the newly selected folder.  Would you like to change their folder paths anyways?  Am I right to click "No"?  To verify all the games are playable and the links are valid, do I "Audit" the folder from the Tools menu next?

[How to update ROM folder path to newer location with updated set?]

When I select all the games of a given platform i.e. NES, I go to Tools>File Management>Change ROMs folder path for selected games...  My question is how do I scan the updated folder for new versions of games or additional games?

In your Exodus Platform, select all the games (click one of them, then press Ctrl+A).  Then click Tools, and select Change ROMs Folder Path for Selected Games.

 

Thank you sir.  I didn't know Launchbox would interpret DOS games as rom files.  Thank you for your help regarding my noob issue.

sure.

To merge your eXoDOS v5 launchbox files into an existing launchbox installation, do the following:

First: 
Run setup.bat

Second: 
copy .\data\platforms\MS-DOS.xml from the exodos folder to your launchbox folder
copy .\data\playlists\* .xml from the exodos folder to your launchbox folder
move .\Manuals\MS-DOS\*.* from the exodos folder to your launchbox folder
move .\Music\*.* from the exodos folder to your launchbox folder
move .\Plugins\*.* from the exodos folder to your launchbox folder
move .\Images\MS-DOS\*.* from the exodos folder to your launchbox folder
move .\eXo\*.* from the exodos folder to your launchbox folder

As I already have most of my platforms setup already, is there anyway to leave my exodos games in the same place I downloaded them?  For instance, would I be able to edit an xml file or game path and point Launchbox to exodos' current location without having to move the 500GB in games to the Launchbox installation folder?
