Ble3azy Posted September 1, 2018 Posted September 1, 2018 Hi guys Does anyone of you knowledgeable souls happen to know of a way to migrate roms/isos to a new location whilst keeping the relative folder structure? The inbuilt tool doesn't do it, it makes the new location absolute. I have some multi file/disc games in folders, or use folders for naming purposes sometimes. cheers in advance B. Quote
Ble3azy Posted September 1, 2018 Author Posted September 1, 2018 Solved it, I just found the replace text function inside notepad++. I'll leave this here for anyone in the same boat; In Launchbox/data/platforms there are .xml files for each platform. Open them, put your mouse cursor on the top line and Hit control+F for find, the second tab in the dialogue is "replace". type the beginning of the old directory (in my case G:\games) and leave the rest them either replace with the new location, or in my case I replaced with nothing as I am moving them inside launchbox for a portable setup and it doesn't need a drive for relative paths. Would still be good to have the inbuilt move tool do this though, I can't imagine a situation where relative path would be worse in anyway. B Quote
