Finished going thru it all.. 735 games total... but this includes clones and 'too similar' games too.
Will go back thru these now, and remove from favorites, the games that niether myself or others will likley not bother with.
As it is, fortunately creating the process makes editing down a usuable list makes mame worth playing with the right frontend.
Its surprsing to me that such a process didnt already exist, with comments that manual was the only way.
Thats usually what non-developers say, but its still funny that nobody did the above before now.
For those saying, well use the rom-remover stuff, I should mention that some of those may have worked at one time, but most of them
havent worked for at least a couple of versions since.
That alone would have been good, if they had worked, but not for a long time.
But im having fun with hyperspin, though Im having to remove a lot of the excessive category stuff.
There really isnt enough game variety to justify having so many different categories.
With me its going to be nothing but 'MAME' and PC GAMES as a main list category.
Everything else is excessive.
As far as creating a cabinet... naw, That would be a nice idea, if the frontend and others actually did allow some variant of using only the favorites and a easier than current way to edit that list.
