RedDog Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 When I was setting up one of my emulators, I decided to use a mapfile. The tooltip and instructions link in the Setup Wizard state that the name to the right of the pipe should be enclosed in quotes. However, when I viewed the game list in GameEx, the quotes were also displayed.When I removed the quotes from the mapfile, it appears to work fine, so I assume that the tooltip/instructions are incorrect. Either that or GameEx is not parsing out the quotes when displaying the list.If it matters, the theme I am using is "Blue as the Sky". Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I would post the map file so we can take a look.However there are two formats. One that uses a pipe and one that uses quotes. The format that uses a pipe does not require quotes. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedDog Posted October 11, 2014 Author Share Posted October 11, 2014 OK, that explains it. I did not read the description closely enough. My fault.I had at one time created some mapfiles for a different GameEx installation. At that time, I used the Rom Name | List Name format. When I created the new mapfile for the recent installation, I saw the notation about the need for quotations and jumped to the (incorrect) conclusion that I needed BOTH the pipe and the quotes.Sorry for the false alarm. I thought I came across a documentation error and just wanted to report it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
