Organize ROMs in self created categories

[Bigb_ch]

Hi everyone

I'm trying to sort my ROMs after own criterias, like in the example on the screenshot. I've created own categories, but don't know how to assign them to the games. Or is there any other or better way to organize the games like this?

Thank you in advance.

Are there no possibilities to organize the games like this?

Launchbox has many own categories but probably not the ones you’re creating. So it obviously doesn’t know which game you want in which category, that’s the problem. Is there nothing for you in the existing categories what you could use?

1-2: Could use Auto-Populate based on region
3-6: Set that value in Source field and then Auto-Populate against that

Then each of the 6 playlists will update automatically when adding games. If you know you are going to be done importing games for a while I would then shut off the Auto-Populate on those playlists as they do increase loading times for some users.

If you are premium you can use Custom Tags to generate information for the Auto-Populate to work against as well.

Than you very much, that's exactly what I needed. ?

Since I've sorted my ROMs in folders after those criterias, I can create them with help of the path.

Got to thinking and you could also probably auto-gen based on the Release Type field for some of them in 3-6 as well.
