        @cosmo0 This Arcademanager is GREAT! Pretty cool stuff! Now, I do agree that you should look into "The Bezel Project". They have a lot of individual bezels for a lot of systems! Because of you and your Arcademanager I was able to use them manually ๐Ÿ™‚ I had no way of making it work, and the Recalbox wiki is plain wrong. It does not work. But the way you did it with a subfolder for the config + image, and use a config file to point to that work great. I now am able to manually add bezels fom "The Bezel Project". Add those bezels to your manager and make it easy for every system available ๐Ÿ™‚

          @cirion the wiki is editable by anyone, so you can help the community by correcting it ;).

          If your question was answered, please mark it as solved: Topic Tools -> Ask a question + Topic Tools -> Mark as Solved

                            New version, because the previous one had a breaking bug.

                            https://github.com/cosmo0/arcade-manager/releases/tag/v6.2

                            Also adds support for roms in .7z format, and adds CSV lists for MAME 2003+ and FBNeo 1.0.0.2

                              New version: with a wizard ! It allows you to easily copy a selection of great games in a few clicks.

                              https://github.com/cosmo0/arcade-manager/releases/tag/v7.0-rc1

                              home

                              The app is now translated; for now only in french, let me know if you can help!

                                Update release because the wizard wasn't working anymore (oops)

                                  After more than two years, I finally found the motivation to work on this project again and improve it.

                                  Download: Release ArcadeManager v25.1

                                  New features

                                  The biggest new feature is the ability to check a romset against a DAT file, and to transform a romset into a non-merged one. Several common DAT files are provided: MAME for the latest Batocera and Recalbox versions, MAME2003 in different flavors, and FBNeo. Merged and split sets are not supported, as they make no sense in the context of this tool.

                                  Other new features:

                                  • Completely rewrote the "top x" lists in the wizard and added some new selections
                                  • Added some new games lists in the wizard (4 buttons, vertical, multiplayer vs/coop)
                                  • Before copying files listed in a CSV, the app now lists the missing ones
                                  • Added the possibility to help translate usingย Weblate
                                  • New translation in Swedish - please contribute to other languages if you can, it's not hard!
                                  • A new console application has been created, in case you want to automate things
                                  • In the latest MAME versions some files (other than samples and bioses) are needed, they are now copied along with the roms

                                  Fixed bugs

                                  • The Windows zip file version launches the debug window upon starting
                                  • Crash when a CHD file already exists
                                  • 404 link in the help section
                                  • Encoding error in some JS error messages
                                  • Path with "+" doesn't work
