[RESOLVED] GameBase entries in emulated games list

[wahoo]

I just configured GameBase with GameBase64. Next I configured it in GameEx. The integration is elegantly simple: just specify the GameBase directory and select how the [Esc] key should work globally. Once that is configured all the extras snaps, music, docs etc. appear seamlessly in GameEx. Great job on the GameBase integration! I might give GameBase Amiga a try, I am currently using WinUAE Loader.

I would like to have an option to change the way GameBase 64 shows up in the Emulated Games list. It currently shows up as 'GBC_v08'. All the rest of the systems have the name of the system and an image of the system hardware and a random snapshot slideshow from the games it supports. I would like to have the option to have it appear as 'Commodore 64' and show a picture of the Commodore 64 system at least. The random screenshots would be even better. This would make it appear completely seamless from the Emulated Games list.

Is there a workaround for the system name? The rest of this request may be more of a feature request.

Yes, simply rename the folder and database mdb file to your liking. You can replace the snap which I believe it takes from the splash folder or similar.

I had tried renaming the folder but did not try renaming the database. Renaming both the folder and the database worked! Also cleared out the splash folder and put in the logo I wanted in the splash folder. That is worked as well.

Thanks!
