Emulation Config - Remove ROM file path, but leave file extension.

Issue #7651 new
Andrew Irving created an issue

In the emulator configuration there is an option to “Remove full path and file extension” to support MAME. I’d like a second option to only remove the full path, but leave the file extension. This would be to support Teknoparrot.
Syntax is

teknoparrot --profile=somegame.xml

Alternatively, you could split the feature out. one option to remove the file path, one option to remove the extension. Right now I have to edit each game individually and add the --profile=somegame.xml option

thank you

    Hi Andrew,

    Thanks for the request. We have it on our list to take a look at a possible solution.

    For now, you can set up your emulator config page like this to get it to work:

    Oh cool. I’ll test that out. Thank you!

    Is there somewhere these options are documented? Wondering what other options might be available.

    The only ones that may be useful are:

    • %romfile% - the ROM filename
    • %romlocation% - full path of the folder the ROM is in
    • %platform% - name of the platform of the game being launched
