Jangelj Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 I’ve searched high and low and can’t figure out how to change the zip file a game is pointed to. How do I edit a specific game in Gameex Arcade? ive built my first cabinet and I am testing various frontends. In LaunchBox, you just right click a game and you can edit it. That’s where I change the zip file a game is using. I cannot figure out how to do this in Gameex Arcade. the game in question is Gauntlet. I want to use the ROM for 2 players so we can choose our character when a coin is inserted. gotta say, I am loving Gameex so far! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tom Speirs Posted November 16, 2019 Share Posted November 16, 2019 you add the rom name to the do not filter list in the setup wizard then update the list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jangelj Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 Thanks. I added “gauntlet” to the do not filter list in Gameex setup wizard, then ran Update list. When complete I selected Gauntlet from the wheel in Gameex, but it still launches the 4 player version, not the 2 player. Somewhere, Gameex stores what zip file is used for each game, that’s what I need to change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jangelj Posted November 17, 2019 Author Share Posted November 17, 2019 Well, I’ve figured out a work around by following Toms suggestion. I added the rom file I wanted (gauntlet2pr3) to the DONT filter line in the wizard. After a rescan, now 2 versions of Gauntlet show up in my list. The original (4player) and the 2 player. id prefer to not even have the 4 player show up, but I’ve just added the 2p version to my favorites and it works. im sure Gameex has a way to simply change the rom file a game points to, a la LaunchBox’s right click Edit menu, but I haven’t found it yet that being said, I really like Gameex and will be purchasing a license.

Draco1962 Posted November 17, 2019 Share Posted November 17, 2019 If the 4 player version shows up in the selection, you can hit Delete to remove it from showing if that is of help. Then just the 2 player version should be in your list. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jangelj Posted November 19, 2019 Author Share Posted November 19, 2019 Sorry about that. I was just trying to reference that one feature. Gameex is so much better than the others. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
