Feature Request: Command Line Plugins Specification

Open anthenorjr opened this issue 6 years ago • 5 comments

Using demul with launchbox is awesome, I convert everything on earth to CHD and love it. But there's one single game I can't find a GDI translated, so it will have to be the CDI. Then I have to change the GD-ROM plugin to grdImage from grdCHD, and it is impossible to change this via command line, the only way I found to use both plugins without having to change it inside demul is to copy demul over another folder and use one for each plugin on Lanchbox. Me and possibly a lot of people would much appreciate if it was possible to do that!! Thank you for awesome work!

This would be great also a way to specify bios by command line would be cool to if possible

as workaround you may use Demul.ini files, in one will be selected gdrCHD plugin and gdrImage in another. then make simple script which will copy one of these ini files into emulator folder.

that will be much simpler than making emulator fully configurable via command line.

the best thing would be to have a single ini for every rom that contains all the configuration settings.

@p1pkin The thing is, unfortunately I have no idea how to do that script. May I have some directions, please? Thanks! @xbrunox76 currently this is not possible, is it? That sounds easier to do on the user side, don't know about developing it.

@anthenorjr You can use a copy function with a Windows Batch file to copy the files from one location to another.
