Is it possible to get LaunchBox to combine duplicate games?

[Son_Of_Diablo]

Hello,

 

I'm just setting up LaunchBox for the first time and I have noticed that some of my platforms (store fronts) has duplicate games.

I'm coming from GOG Galaxy and there the duplicate games will be combined and you can select what store front should launch/install the game.

Is this possible with LaunchBox?

Thanks in advance!

Select the two games (Ctrl+Click to select multiple) then right click any of them and there will be a combine option. If you leave combine on in import it does this automatically.

Awesome! Thanks!

I did "Tools > Scan > Store Fronts" to populate my games, and I didn't notice that option.. I might just have missed it though.

One thing I'll mention is that LaunchBox does try and automatically combine the games, but depending on the process you use to import and possibly the state of the GamesDB, and the names of the games between the storefronts, ymmv.

For example, I just ran imports just now using the Manage Storefront wizard + Tools > Scan > For Storefront Games, and I'm seeing ABZU being combined together between the Steam and EGS versions.

For the ones you notice aren't combined, do what cbeats said.

Could auto combination be a premium feature maybe?
