latin625 Posted September 18, 2016 Share Posted September 18, 2016 (edited) Hi, I know that LB offers a sort by genre and such, but can you sort by trackball, shooter, fighter, and have that available as a platform on the wheel? So, what I mean is... Can the when that shows ARCADE, DREAMCAST,etc... ALso have a TRACKBALL, PLATFORM, SHOOTER, SPORTS, CASINO, and when you click on it, have it show the respective games? My OLD HS setup had that on the wheel and would love to see that on LB. Maybe I can do it myself with what is available now? I see CUSTOM FILTERS. But is that the only way? TRACKBALL GAMES (Missle command, WOrld Bowing, etc.) SPORTS (2020 BASEBALL, 10 Yard Fight, 2 on 2 HOCKEY, NBA JAMS, RUN AND GUN) Thanks!

SsjCosty Posted February 6, 2017 Share Posted February 6, 2017 One problem with this is that the metadata for most games just doesn't have these details. For example, the Arcade game "Dungeons & Dragons: Shadow over Mystara" only has these following details: Genre: Fighting; Role-Playing Play mode: Multiplayer When in fact it should have tags such as Beat'em Up, 1-4 players, Couch Co-Op, etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
latin625 Posted July 23, 2017 Author Share Posted July 23, 2017 I have almost finished up the lightgun filter and it works great, but a TON of work... Anyone have any lists finished yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robin55 Posted July 29, 2017 Share Posted July 29, 2017 Yeah I split all my games into Genre Playlists, I posted a video about it a few posts back, it was a hell of a job, my library is massive so it took days because of missing Genre info. They really need to do some work on the Genre titles for the Data base. A while back I saw a guy had posted playlists split into Genres. I'm thinking of adding my xml. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
