runcommand wiki updated

@obsidianspider
the runcommand was updated for showing the launching art even if the "launch menu art" is enabled AND there's no art for the chosen game. The was updated accordingly.

Is there anyway this will work even if the game already has box art?

only if "launch menu art" is disabled. I've updated the conditions in the wiki. ;-)

I've just updated the runcommand wiki with instructions on how to setup specific game launching images. It's a cool feature but I think it's a bit subutilized.

Recently BuZz added a really cool feature in runcommand. Now we can choose a custom script in a list and execute it. Pretty handy!

I've updated the wiki with some instructions on how to use it:

By the way, I've changed my joystick-selection tool to take advantage of this feature and now the user can configure the input joystick for the system that is going to be launched right before launching the game. :-)

@herb_fargus The runcommand page on Docs isn't synchronized with the runcommand wiki.

Is there something I can do to get it updated?

[obsidianspider]

@meleu so this new feature adds another option to the run command menu you can invoke by pressing a button while the game is loading? Very cool. I'm not sure what I'd do with it, but it certainly opens up possibilities.

@meleu It's updated/triggered manually when @herb_fargus sees fit/ has time to check recent changes etc. Patience.

[meleu]

@BuZz it's not about (im)patience, I'm just offering help. :-)
I'm still used to consult the wiki anyway.

@meleu It's not something anyone else can help with really - It requires ssh access to the server as well as a custom patch for the generation tool due to a bug. It's intentionally a manual process so changes can be reviewed etc.
