[QUOTE="Chreekar, post: 90465, member: 26713"] Hello everyone! I have made a plugin that works as a launcher for emulator games. It lists all the ROMs on the harddrive and starts the selected game in the associated emulator. Opinions requested :-) The plugin can be found here: [url]https://www.team-mediaportal.com/extensions/games-fun/my-emulators[/url] And emulator thumbnails here: [URL="https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2448&d=1168379310"]https://forum.team-mediaportal.com/attachment.php?attachmentid=2448&d=1168379310[/URL] Newest SVN version: [URL="https://myemulators.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/myemulators"]https://myemulators.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/myemulators[/URL] CHANGELOG ------------------------------------------- v3.1 -A new prefix, %ROM_WITHOUT_EXT%, that works like %ROM% but will not include the extension of the file -New section in Configuration for setting thumbnails -Bugfix regarding exporting game **** data -Esc can be used to go back one level instead of just exiting -Maximize box in Configuration window -Bugfix in resizing method -Configuration window resizable -Blue3wide skin included v3.0 -Built for Mediaportal 1.0 -Code completely rewritten -New Configuration interface -Improved translation system, see below -Autoconfiguration of filter string -Working folder for emulator can be set, and default value is the location of the emulator executable file -Games can now be in subfolders -More fields in the game database, among others one to hide the game -Create a custom view by marking some games as favourites, and this view can be shown on launch -Ctrl + F opens a search field in the database tab in the configuration -Database optimization, so it should be a lot faster and easier to work with now -Possibility to import and export games **** data through custom xml files -PC Games have their own group and config v2.0 -Filter for showing files made case- insensitive v1.9 -Support for Windows Vista and MP RC1 -Execute PC games, or other programs without arguments.
