ckp Posted September 4, 2016 Share Posted September 4, 2016 Hi, I don't really know xml terminology, but I'll try asking for something the best I can come up with without researching xml. My lunchbox.xml file is massive. I feel like it might be useful for me to know what the main "parents" are like I've seen <Settings>, <Game> , etc. Like if I wanted to change the path for the default Launchbox\Images\<platform> to something like R:\Media\<platform> , I don't really know what to search for inside that giant xml file. I know for one thing, I sure don't want to manually go inside every 'manage platform' platform to change them one by one. Ok, I could use a symlink, but I still want to know how to find stuff in the xml file easier (it's a beast!). Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ckp Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 (edited) Well I installed a free xml editor to have an easier look, but the file was apparently too huge for it and it kept crashing. Hahaha. Maybe try another xml editor later. Edited September 4, 2016 by ckp Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ckp Posted September 4, 2016 Author Share Posted September 4, 2016 had a deeper look at the xml file. looks like all the game specifics go first, so starting at the end of the file and climbing up towards <games> showed me what I was looking for. but what i saw is that there is no easy way to plugin via find/replace an absolute path for things in one fail swoop, and there is no setting for a Launchbox absolute root path. ok.

Lordmonkus Posted September 17, 2018 Share Posted September 17, 2018 There is no Launchbox.xml, all the xml files are in the \Data folder and its sub folders. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
