@iandaemon said in How to Filter Out Adult Games?:

@alphabetapie I think you can remove the "button hints" or whatever they're called at the bottom of the screen.

According to mitu in this thread, adding/deleting favorites is disabled by design in KIOSK mode: https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/29960/problem-adding-favorites/3?_=1615605880384

That would be super helpful, but mine does not seem to act that way. I set it to kiosk mode and then on any game I hit the Y button on, it will still say "Adding/Removing From Favorites." Then if I filter by favorites in Kiosk, only those will show up. I would like this disabled completely if possible. I'm running the version of Retropie from the 4.7.1 image, EmulationStation version 2.9.6RP.

Can @mitu chime in on if I need to set something a certain way, or turn something off (or anyone that might know what the issue is getting these favorites to read-only)?

@megagames3999 See? now that's all i wanted.. i just spent 3-4 hours looking for a solution to filtering the adult roms in my arcade folder, went through 6-7 various filtering tools that were overly complicated or have a learning curve.

and then you hide away in here with your little batch file that does it in one step.

why can't mame rom organisation be more like this?

Click, click, done.

all these various dll and xml and csv and dat files and romsets that change daily and the moon and stars having to align IS MADNESS.

God i hate arcade emulation.

Thank you. your batch file removed 300 or so mature themed roms and now I can stop filling my google search history with questionable queries. I hope you are well and have a great day.
