Renaming games deletes images for games with same name

[darreldearth]

If there are 2 or more games with the same name in launchbox and you rename one of them to something new then all the images attached to both games get renamed to the new renamed version of the game leaving the 2nd un-edited game which still retains the original name left without any images. launchbox should create a copy of the images which it renames when there is more than one entry with the same name.

I agree with this, for me would ve better if the images get copied. Of course this is a chosen behavior more than a problem and maybe more people prefer that the images get renamed.

Yeah, normally it's fine. I only think the images should be copied when there is more than one game with the same title.

Normally it wouldn't bother me but when I'm going through my collection trying to clean up around 100k games such as games which have been scraped incorrectly, games which I'm adding (disc 1) or (disc 2) to, or games which I just need to add something like the words "special edition" to it ends up taking a lot of time when the images for 4+ games all lose their images because I changed the name of a single game.
