Hi, I'm still in the process of organizing my collection of No-Intro roms and wondering if they are needing to be audited. What I mean is, I know they are being updated all the time, but what I wanted to make sure of is that the names are correct for one thing. When these sets come out, are they correctly named to a standard? Right now I am not even dealing with arcade, I want to get my console collection finished before I even think about arcade. I've heard that clrmamepro is the best for auditing roms, but I couldnt get it to load more that the first dat file, after that it wouldnt show any more no matter how many I tried to load. I would load another dat file, refresh the list, and absolutely nothing would happen. No more dat files in the list, and no options for creating a profile. I guess for now, if I had to use a program for auditing, would romcenter be good enough for console games?

Awesome, thank you. I think i have a "game" plan now.

Also, one more question: If I wanted to "stack" the games by putting other versions under Additional Apps, what would I do with those versions in the main interface? Would I hide them, or just delete the entry entirely? I've moved my mass of games to Dropbox and am waiting for it to sync, and trying to decide my plan of action. I want the cleanest list of games while still being able to access all versions if needed. Also, I've read that recently, it was added that when you delete a game in LB it also deletes the rom file - is that optional, or does it happen automatically? Thank you again.

Kirsten: Thank you for the reply. I agree, it would probably make more sense to import all games, that way, I can hide the ones I don't want to show, but if I would want them I could still get to them within LaunchBox. As for the BIOS, I think I will either filter them out of the import, if thats possible, or just hide them in LaunchBox. Thank you very much!

So, just to clarify, should I just import ALL games from a No-Intro set, and then use methods to filter or hide the ones I dont want to show up? What I had done is to go through all the files manually in Windows Explorer and take all the files I didn't want and zip archive them so Launchbox didnt even scan them. But it sounds like a better way would be to import them all, and organize afterward. Also, while sort-of on the subject, what do people do with bios files for systems like SNES such as _BIOS DSP2 (WORLD).BIN? Do you just leave it in the folder with the ROMs? I've not played a game which required them yet (I don't think anyway.) Do I import them as well and just hide? Thank you.

Awesome! thats what i was thinking. By the way Awesome work, I love this app!

Hi, ive been using Launchbox for a few months now, and also just switched from stand-alone emulators to Retroarch. My question is, would it make any sense to put my Retroarch folder inside the Launchbox folder, just so i'd only have 1 main folder to keep track of? Im super OCD about where to put things for organization, but at the same time, thats why i can never make up my mind. 'Oh I should put it here for this reason, but because of that maybe I should keep it there, etc.' How do most people organize things? Including ROMs, etc? So confused. Thanks
