Assets paths

[wahoo]

I have had GameEx setup for a while. I am in the process of setting up everything from scratch. I thought I would take advantage of as many of the 'recent' standards, defaults plugins etc. to try to make things easier to maintain.

For one of the thing I am re organizing all of the asset folders. The nice thing is that GameEx can be configured to support any directory structure you prefer. However, I thought instead I would try to go with a default or standard as I could. Mainly The Setup Wizard seems to organize as follows:

Assets

System Name

Snaps

Titles

etc.

Second System Name

Snaps

Titles

etc.

I am trying to edit the GameEx.ini and pre populate all of the possible asset paths for each system then I can copy the files I have into the appropriate directories and add more as I acquire them.

Through various posts, I have noticed a few 'new' paths such as VideoSnapPath= and TVAdvert=. Is there a complete list of all of them? I want to minimize as many CustomArtName paths as possible.

Thanks

Its much easier to use the setup wizard but if you want to see what is supported look at the ini settings in \config\setupwizard_en.xml

Sorry, my original post was confusing. I am using the setup wizard it is working great. I am looking for paths that the wizard doesn't have. It looks like it does have VideoSnapPath=. The only ones I have found so far that are not in the setup wizard is TVAdPath= (I incorrectly called this TVAdvert= in my original post.)

Next question. Some of the CustomArtPath (s) I have setup in the GameEx.ini are not showing up. I think I have figured out why. It looks like it supports up to 5 CustomArtPath (s) and ignores any beyond.

Can you confirm?

Thanks

After searching around a bit I answered my last question

... off topic a bit but the search on the forum does not work well. If you try to search for an exact phrase with quotes it ignores this and returns result for each word in the phrase returning too many results making it very difficult to find exactly what you are looking for....

It seems that there are some feature requests to support more custom art paths than 5. So I'll through in my request too. Now with so many different kinds of art available on EmuMovies, it seems like we could use more than 5 additional paths.

Thanks

Man I'm so with you on this, although I think it has more to do with how Invision Power Board implements general Search functionality, than anything specific to this forum. ProTip: A plain old Google site search will generally yield better and more applicable Search results than the forum search. Your Google search would look like this:

If you want to be official about throwing in your Request don't forget to add it to the Feature & Enhancement Requests thread.
