Sorry, I clicked on the wrong link on facebook, someone was asking for help on there and I think I came here by mistake, also someone was asking for help on another thread.
I know that there is an easyish solution to this, however, if you are using simple touch fe, you would want to be more selective of games, rather than mass importing every game that is rubbish.
E.G I download everything for the cabinet, but if I was using simple touch, then I would want just the best roms.
Which in turn takes time and dedication to set up.
I have been focused on skinning rather than adding roms to be honest, even though I have thought about it, but as I have said it is just too much work to sort the good from the bad, so why do it?
You have front ends for emulation, people are creating XML for the best of and doing the hard work for us, barring some dodgy choices.
As you will know Simple Touch uses exe, bat or lnk files to run, so you would have to do something.
I am thinking of the solution I would use, but it is annoying me, as I know it could be done and I think I have seen on youtube videos of where people have got roms installed.
I just had a look and found this but it looks like he is pressing Nintendo, then it is going to a file directory, but the MAJOR part of that, is that he is clicking on the files and they are loading.
Which to me, means that he has used file association to run the game, which is what is in my head but it is like wanting to say something, but you cannot put it into words, I know a workaround, but I don't.
Regards
Mark
