actioncomics Posted September 7, 2018 Share Posted September 7, 2018 I messed up big time. Luckly I had not gotten that far into my build that i don't mind starting over if i have to. I was trying to use the latest version with the mame playlists. I must have done something wrong because i ended up with a ton of new lists under "Platform", when I was trying to just create them under "Playlist". Is there a way to reverse this without having to go through 8 hours of re-importing all the roms? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lordmonkus Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 Yes, you can fix this in 2 different ways. Way #1: Go through your platforms list and right click and edit each playlist and change the category to what you want it in. Way #2: Close Launchbox, go to your Launchbox\Data\Playlists folder and delete the playlists. Update Launchbox to the latest beta just uploaded today and then under Tools, Create Missing Arcade/MAME Playlists. This should generate them all in the Playlists category. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lordmonkus Posted September 8, 2018 Share Posted September 8, 2018 If you had to do another import you would be able to save a lot of time but deselecting all the media since that doesn't get removed from you setup if you remove your games.

actioncomics Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 Could I also uncheck the highlighted option? I assume that will keep the "playlist" but remove it from the "platform" list Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

actioncomics Posted September 8, 2018 Author Share Posted September 8, 2018 There are so many options in this program, I keep stumbling across things just as I think i have it figured out. Glad I didn't have to start over. Thanks for pointing me in the right direction and for the tip about the media. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
