walter10h Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 (edited) A while ago I made a thread asking how you guys deal with games that don't have box art, backgrounds or anything available. Basically those small freeware games, mini-games, or really obscure stuff. Didn't get any replies, but I did come up with a solution. Kinda silly, but it works. lol Basically, I put everything under one box called Miscellaneous games. Then, when you open it, it runs a portable installation of ES-DE with all my small games on a simple list. It's not the best solution out there, but what do you guys think?

C-Beats Posted January 24, 2023 Share Posted January 24, 2023 You can set default artwork on a per platform basis if you wanted. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank you! To be fair, it doesn't look very good for me. I can select Box - Front but no Back or even Spine, which would be great for 3D boxes of digital games. I still prefer my method, because it looks cleaner to me. However, the default box option will be great to use in some cases. Just wish it was a little more flexible.

Nxy Del Posted January 3 Share Posted January 3 (edited) you can also select the next most likely option. So if it' missing front box, try 3d box or title screenshot. You can make as many substitutions as you wish. I do, "3D-Box, Front Box, Front Box- Fan Art- Front Box- Reconstructed, Screenshot-Game Title" . Go To: Tools, Options, and 'Front Box Priorities' under 'Media" Edited January 3 by Nxy Del 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
