:Only list files that match the filter. Use this to select only valid ROMS. Separate multiple filters with a semi colon. e.g RomFilter = *.bin;*.atr;*.2600. If your ROMS don't show up, make sure this setting is correct, or leave it empty. If Zip/7-Zip is enabled use the extension of the correct files within the archive.<br />
:'''Default:'''<br />
::* *.avi<br />
<br />
=== Command Line ===<br />
:This is the Command Line used to launch the emulator and ROM. Specify the command you wish to run. The directory and drive would priviously have been set to that specified in the Working Path. You can use any setting from this section by placing it in square brackets. Additionally you specify [ROM] the Rom Name without file extension, or [ROMFILE] for the Full ROM File Name with extension.<br />
<br />
:If the rom filename is an iso file, you can specify [VIRTUALDRIVE] and GameEx will automatically mount the iso. [VirtualDrive] will be replaced with the drive letter of the virtual drive. Ensure you install ISO support when installing GameEx. To mount the image without changing the cmd line specify [-virtualdrive-]<br />

The database files should be MS Access 97 or 2000. There should be tools available out there if you don't have the required software. The files should be in the Data\Emulators\ directory and at least 1 file is included with the install, If you want to modify an included file be sure you make a new copy of it.<br />
