Add missing games from another romset?

[ReignerDeustcher]

If i have a super nintendo romset with 700 roms and then i found another romset with much more games is there a way that i can tell launchbox to add only the missing games from all that romset?

Go to LaunchBox > Tools > Scan for Added ROM's

Did you add the new roms to your existing Super Nintendo roms folder?

by default LB is looking to scan the Launchbox\Games\Super Nintendo folder if you games are in another location then you have to go to tools edit platform and change the rom location in the folder tab.

thanks, i've done it but launchbox is also adding to the list all the europe versions of the same games that i have already added in usa versions

i only want europe games that don't have an usa version

Well you didnt specify that in your original post, thats not possible to do automatically, i mean how was Launchbox supposed to "just know" you didnt want the Europe games added?

i thought it can detect that both versions have a repeated name (?)

but if i accept all the list, all the europe versions will also be added with another repeated box and images and everything? or there's some way to put them like an additional application option?

If you were to remove the platform and then add it back in again it would combine all of the US and European games that had the same name leaving only the European exclusives showing in LaunchBox

Media is not deleted when you delete a platform unless you specify that yourself, metadata doesnt matter as its sourced from your local metadata file so no downloads there.
