HTPCei Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 A lot of my ROMs are zip files, containing different region versions of each game. Recently I've noticed Launchbox/Retroarch seems to be picking a random region each time it launches, rather than following the region priorities I specified in Launchbox Settings. Do I need to Re-import my ROMs? Or does anyone know of anything else I could try first? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Launchbox has no idea what is in the archive as its the zip you imported, not the contents of it. Also i have never seen romsets that actually come that way, so thats a new one on me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTPCei Posted June 7, 2020 Author Share Posted June 7, 2020 Thanks for the swift response, and for confirming what I was dreading, now I just need to check my whole library again haha So, if I unzipped all the archives containing multiple regions, then zipped them all separately to save space; will Launchbox import each ROM as a separate game listing? Or should it then import just 1 game, choosing the Region based on my specifications? Thanks again Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DOS76 Posted June 7, 2020 Share Posted June 7, 2020 If you import them all and have the combine games optioned checked in the import wizard it will group them together under one game. Then you can right click and choose a version that you want to start 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HTPCei Posted June 7, 2020 Author Share Posted June 7, 2020 Thought that was the case, I'm just a bit rusty on the details with this stuff... Many thanks guys, I'm off to sort out my Library again... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
