Support for alternate language roms and romhacks of a game

Issue #8381 resolved
Anderson Urbano created an issue

I’d like to request a way to register and launch alternate roms for a game that can be other languages or maybe rom hacks. As for user experience I though it could you add a folder with the rom name inside the roms folder and add the alternate roms. On launchbox you register those in and right clicking the game there could be a dropdown called “Launch alternate rom“, it would also feature inside big box in the game menu. As for an example, I imagined being able to launch pokémon rom hacks like the new “Pokemon Crystal Legacy“ rom hack straight from the pokémon crystal game.

    This is already possible through our bulk import wizard or by doing this manually.

    If done manually, you would edit the game, go into the Additional Apps section, and add your rom hacks and alternate language roms into there. You would then be presented with an additional versions menu by right click the game, or within the game details menus.
