I've noticed EmuLoader's ability to create custom settings per game has been broken for a while. This happened when MAME started adding the folder name to the driver name in the xml output. E.g. sony/zn.cpp instead of just zn.cpp. I've written a little tool which will fix EL's gamelist.
- Place the tool in the same folder as the EmuLoader.exe file.
- Create the gamelist as usual.
- Close EmuLoader.
- Run the tool.
- Once finished, open EmuLoader back up and you should be able to create custom ini's like you used to.
This is a very quick and dirty tool I put together to fix a problem. There is minimal error messaging. I can't guarantee it will work for you since I compile my own MAME with only arcade games and haven't really tested it with the full MAME.
