That works. Thanks. The only programing I know is Basic from 1979 🤣 Programing languages come a long way since then.

Where do I look for this to change it. (what folder and file?)

Thanks for the video! By watching the video I found out what I was doing wrong. I always learn better by watching. Again, Thanks. 👍

It'd be nice it there was a tutorial on how to do this (Create genres under platforms) instead of me trying trial and error many times.

Basicly what I want to do is while using bigbox, Select the platform (Nintendo Wii) and then have a choice to select a Genre (Role-Playing) and then it would show all role-playing games.

Also in bigbox When selecting the platform how do i just get the playlists to show up and not the games?

Option 3: Right click the platform name and choose >Add >New >Playlist. In the Details tab name the playlist what you want. Then in the Auto-Populate tab click the check box to make it an auto-pop playlist. You will need to set a couple line options here. Set first line (Field / Comparison / Value) to be "Platform" / "Is Equal To" / [Your Platform Name]. In the second line set the (Field / Comparison / Value) to be "Genre" / "Is Equal To" / [Your Genre Choice]. Next go to the "Parents" tab and set the parent to be the platform. Did this with first platform then when adding for another platform this poped up.

Option 1: Right click the platform name and choose >Auto-Generate Child Playlists. A menu will come up allowing you to select types of playlists for that platform you want. These will be available as a tree under the platform name. You can then delete any you do not want. Right clicking on the platform doesn't show >Auto-Generate Child Playlists.

I would like to select a platform like playstation 2 then be able to select a genre like RPG, Action, Platform, ect. Is there a tutorial on how to do this?

Never mind. I guess it was fixed with the latest update.

Any idea on how to set up red dead redemption 2 to launch? If you link to game .exe it says you need to launch game through Rock Star game launcher

When I add games it puts the platform as windows and I always us PC (since PC always runs windows anyway) When I edit one game and change it to PC its fine, but when I use the bulk edit wizard by selecting more then one to change it from windows to pc the artwork is gone. It has a blank white square with the logo in it and then I have to re-download the artwork. So when adding more then one game I have to edit them individually to prevent this.

Cool, Then I can finally have a smaller boot up list. I currently have my genres as my boot up (Nintendo-rpg, Nintendo-platform, ect) which makes a very long list to scroll through to find my games. Now I can have my boot up be by Platform and have Nintendo and then select RPG, Platform ect. Can't wait for this. Anybody know it I can automatically have launch box change my genres for all my games? I changed them when adding them to represent platform and when this feature is added I can change them back to what they're supposed to be, or do I have to manually change them? Example: I have SNES game Final fantasy genre set to Super Nintendo-RPG instead of Role-Playing

I use Pinnacle game profiler and program the L3 as the escape button to shutdown ePSXe

Wondering if you can have more then 1 install. I currently have 1 installed for use with the big box with games that use a controller. I have games that don't use a controller (like Pillars of Eternity) that I don't put in because I use big box just with a controller. I wanted to have another launchbox that just has games that use keyboard and mouse. So if I can use 2 different launchbox which would be the best way to do it. I currently have launchbox installed to my D: drive and want a second one on my J: drive. I don't know if the installer writes anything to windows reg that tells windows where stuff is located so I don't know if it's possible. If launchbox installer just copies the files to where you tell it to install and nothing else then I could probably do it.
