Updated Gamelist XML Creator

Rookervik

@LorThe3rd I don't have that file saved in any location I can link, anymore. So I don't know how you get hold of it anymore. I guess ask for it and I will email it to you. LOL.

As far as adding videos... I could edit it to add videos... maybe if I can figure out the program and learn how to add videos in the first place. Since I have no clue. Don't have any desire for noisy videos to play on my ES all day.

@Rookervik The would be great Rookervik, thanks!

Rookervik

@LorThe3rd I'm sure it would be great. As far as me going back and modifying something, that's another story. Haha! I, first, have to learn how to do videos. And I'm not all that excited about it since I couldn't care less about video previews. LOL

LorThe3rd

@Rookervik LOL .. no worries, It would be ok if you can email me the Gamelist XML Creator, for the video, I can use Nismo powershell code to generate. :)

Hi @Rookervik , someone named Jax just post a Gamelist XML Generator tht I need, https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/9486/gengal-gamelist-xml-generator
Thank you for answering my question so promptly :)

Rookervik

@Rookervik Hi! Your XML Maker seems exactly what I'm looking for ! But the dropbox link seems broken, is it possible to re-upload it ? :)

Rookervik

@steuv See if this link works. Dropbox changed their sharing policies a while back and it's made things difficult.

@rookervik It works ! Thanks a lot, that'll make my life so much easier :)

@Rookervik two questions:

is it possible to automatically include references to textfiles with games descriptions?
it would be nice to be able to adapt the program... do you consider it as freeware and if yes, is it possible to get the source code (which programming language?) or/and the old batch (the link above does not work)?

Thanks and regards
Patrick
