cpujunkie Posted July 30 Share Posted July 30 my emulator settings. I use dummy files to make this work Platform Settings. I have the Games mainly separated into 2 folder one for Arcade and one for Taito Type X, When you look up TeknoParrot games on the GamesDB these are the 2 platforms you find them in. Find the Game on the LaunchBox GamesDB Name the folder to mimic the LBGDB Then inside of the Game folder I create a dummy file that matches the TeknoParrot User profile file but with a .appid file extension. The User profile file gets created after adding and setting up the game inside of the TeknoParrot UI. Now to just import one game at a time just drag and drop the appid file into LaunchBox or Tools - Import - Roms - Add File and locate the appid file If you would like to import a whole batch of games at once. For the TeknoParrot Arcade platform. Go to the TeknoParrot Arcade folder in File Explorer and search for *.appid. Wait for spinning wheel. Select All and drag and drop into Launchbox. If you have Launchbox open to the platform you are importing it makes it easier Now we are in the Import Wizard in LaunchBox. Choose Rom Files. The Platform options. The Emulator Options. Use the files in their current location. Keep going through the wizard. Choose the options you would like. Emumovies options. Now on this next page make sure to check Use folder names instead of rom file names... and the final of the import wizard. Single Game. Batch of Games if the folder names match the GamesDB you get nicely added games and can match EmuMovies too. If there are entries in the GamesDB and/or EmuMovies you'll have the metadata and artwork.
