essjaygee Posted April 11, 2021 Share Posted April 11, 2021 (edited) Hello all, I've made some significant changes to the internals of the plugin. This de-couples the formatting functions from the filtering/selection code, making it much, much easier to have multiple formats available for the list output and I've created a handful of simple formats to demonstrate. They can definitely be improved on, so all suggestions are welcome. The plugin code is now significantly more complex than before, so my limited testing may be exposed. Please let me know of any bugs or problems you encounter and I'll endeavour to fix them. Plugin file: GameListExporter_0x0x7.zip Installation: Just place GameListExporter.dll in the Launchbox Plugins sub-directory Usage: Select 'Game List Exporter' from the Tools menu in LB and a window will appear allowing you to choose between platforms, genres, year of release and publishers as a basis for your exported list. Selecting a group option will display values you have in your database for that field. Check the ones you want to include in the export file. You can choose from a number of available output formats that can be previewed in real-time in both text and HTML (where applicable) views. Once platforms and layout are selected, hit 'Generate Export List' and you'll be prompted for where to save the resulting export file -- and that's it.

Archr0y Posted January 13, 2022 Share Posted January 13, 2022 This is excellent, thankyou. It's just what I have been looking for to help fill the blanks when searching for missing ROMs for my collection. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
710breadman Posted February 27, 2022 Share Posted February 27, 2022 I used to resort to going into each folder to create a list, but my library has become nearly unmanageably large and that was the biggest pain in neck. This cut that process to a few seconds. A true gift for me. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
essjaygee Posted February 27, 2022 Author Share Posted February 27, 2022 Glad it's useful for you both. Happy to take suggestions for improvements, if you have any ideas. I've been thinking about dusting off the code and looking at it again. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KP MORRIS Posted October 12, 2023 Share Posted October 12, 2023 Awesome & very handy tool! Many thanks for creating & sharing. Is it possible to add the game count beside each of the platforms? example: - Arcade (234 games) -- 005 (Sega) (1981) [Maze / Shooter Small; ] -- 1941: Counter Attack (Capcom) (1990) [Shooter / Flying Vertical; ] Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
