nightscreams Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 I have some rom's for emulators other than Mame, like Neo Geo roms, that will display in Gamex as "AOF3" for example instead of "Art of Fighting 3".Is there a way i can change the displayed name? I'm afraid to mess with the actual rom zips, some of them have more than 1 zip file for the same game. I use Winkawaks for Neo Geo and when i open that emulator it will display the full name of game, but doesn't in Gameex.tahnks in advance.
KRC Posted March 30, 2013 Posted March 30, 2013 Hey,You need to use a map file, these can be enabled under advanced emulator settings in the setup wizard.This will correct the names when displayed in GameEx.
davidj1987 Posted March 31, 2013 Posted March 31, 2013 EDIT: Fixed Issue.I have a similar situation - not to steal OP's thunder, but I have tried to make a custom map maker. I posted about an issue with my SNES games in another thread.So tonight I made a custom map file for my SNES games, and I have noticed that it doesn't work like I want it to. For instance, I have the game 2020 baseball showing four times, if I click on one of them, one will be for the 7th Saga. Another case in point, I have Actraiser showing more than five times, and if I click on one of them, I get a game that is not actraiser, one may be some adams family game. I looked at the MAP file in notepad and it looks like how I want it to look but it's not reflecting what is in the map file, do I need to reset my game list or something?EDIT: I fixed the issue. Deleted my database file and BAM now all looking how it should.
