joele Posted November 13, 2018 Share Posted November 13, 2018 Sorry not sure where to put this, minor bug. When adding a new system, if I do it by adding roms from a folder say d:\roms\SegaSaturn and then choose platform/emulator etc it will add the roms from the folder I selected (and in this case create the platform) but then if I put more roms in that folder and rescan it won't find them as even if I never add roms from the launchbox roms folder it will ALWAYS default to that as the roms folder.. Seems to make sense if you are adding the platform by adding a folder of roms from outside that path the roms folder should be populated from that path not the default path? No big deal I have fixed mine as can change easily enough, it just seemed counter intuitive for it to default to a different folder than you initially add the roms from.

This is not a bug but expected behaviour. It defaults to the Launchbox/Games/Name of platform folder as a lot of people move/copy there games into the Launchbox folder structure to keep things organized and portable. It is easy enough to change though, just go to Tools/Manage Platforms and click on the folders tab, and under games use the browse button to point to where your games are and then the search for added/removed roms will work as expected. It has been brought up before however, and may be added to do it automatically at some point in the future. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
