midd Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 (edited) Not really a troubleshooting issue. It's more of a technical question and I wasn't sure where else to ask: I'm assuming GAME ID's are assigned by Launchbox as they are added? I'm not talking about the Launchbox Game Database ID; just the Game ID itself as found in a Platform's xml file? I'm asking because I'm trying to merge 300+ games from one instance of Launchbox to another. The one's I'm trying to merge call on additional apps (basically 3-5 scripts depending on the game). Rather than add each application 3-5 times for each 300+ games. I was considering copying the additional apps info from the one xml file to mine. THat's where I noticed different game IDs for the same game in each xml. I'll add pics in a second for reference.

C-Beats Posted June 23, 2023 Share Posted June 23, 2023 Yes the ID is a unique identifier created when the data model for that game is first created. This means that across builds the same ROM file will very likely have a different ID Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
