yajinni Posted October 12, 2015 Author Share Posted October 12, 2015 I was wondering how you guys manage this? First i would prefer retroarch but open to any other suggestions. 1. Is it possible to compress the bin and cue files into one zip or something? 2. Is it possible to add multiple CDs to a zip and for the system to ask you which do you want to load? 3. How do you guys handle games that ask for you to swap the disk? Using a mouse is no problem of course but can this all be done though the controller? 4. How do you get launch box to only show one game instead of all CDs as thier own game? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted October 12, 2015 Share Posted October 12, 2015 Set up just the .cue file in LaunchBox to do so use Windows search (search for .cue) in your PS1 folder and drag all the .cue's over (or to skip the next step weed out the additional disks before you drag and drop) go through the list and remove all of the additional discs except disk 1 then after you have added them all right click (or hit ctrl + E) on the appropriate game once in the edit windows click the additional apps tab. Add the additional app name it disk 2 (or whatever you prefer) add the path to the second disc (repeat for all additional disks) and click the use emulator check box and hit Okay. Now when you right click on that game the additional disks will appear in the right click context menu. Why we are on this subject Jason is there anyway that you could change the behavior of clicking browse inside the additional apps set up window it opens the explorer window for adding the game but it is defaulted to .exe, .bat and another option I think could it be on all files by default this way we don't have to navigate over to the drop down and change it before any of the games appear you can hit tab as soon as the Window opens and then down cursor twice and press enter to do it quickly but it would be much faster if all files was default if you have no control over this and Windows manages how it is handled then its out of your hands but if you can change this it would be greatly appreciated.

Jason Carr Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Hi @yajinni, I think I attempted to answer most of these in another thread. @DOS76, I believe if you check the box to use emulation before browsing it should open it up to all files...I think.

DOS76 Posted October 13, 2015 Share Posted October 13, 2015 Ok I usually save that step for last but that is great to know for the future next project is PS2 which is a big job since I still have to acquire the ISO's for 23 letters in the alphabet.

yajinni Posted October 13, 2015 Author Share Posted October 13, 2015 Requires a lil work i see. Thats no problem but probably another thing to add to your list. A better way to do all this. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jason Carr Posted October 14, 2015 Share Posted October 14, 2015 Yup, agreed. I need to do some research with how the other guys do it, and see if we can come up with the best possible solution. Unfortunately it's not on the top of the to-do list though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
