Creating new platform from a playlist?

[alnyden]

Hi, I'm wondering if there's a way to create a new platform from roms that are part of a playlist, and can those roms exist in two separate platforms? 

The reason I'm asking -- I use Rocketlauncher for MAME, but I'd like to use new the MAME High Score features, so I need to create another platform that would use MAME as the main emulator.  Also, I'd love to start with a list of favorites so it doesn't have to be my entire MAME collection.  I don't see an obvious way to do this but I haven't used LaunchBox recently and might be forgetting a workaround.

Thanks for any advice!

This is possible, if your playlist is a manually made one select all the games (Control + A) and the do a bulk edit (Control + E) to change the platform. If your playlist is an auto generated one you will need to change it to a manual one by selecting all the all the games and then right clicking and Add to Playlist > New. Then repeat the bulk edit process from before.

Not using this method but you can re-import the games to the other platform you want them to be in.

Great, thanks for the feedback!
