Feature Request : Scan for Scummgames

NeXuS · Post by **NeXuS** » Wed Jun 21, 2006 5:26 pm

I have the problem that i have to add each Scumm game and cant add more games at once.

If i have maybe all Scummgames on
C:/Scummgames/*NameoftheGame*/
Then i have to click on every directory to add a game.
It needs much time to add maybe 10 games.

Could it be changed that i have only to select
C:/Scummgames/
and ScummVM searches all following directories for Scumm compatible games and add them automatic?
C:/Scummgames/Indiana/Adventure/Indiana3/
C:/Scummgames/Indiana/Adventure/Indiana4/
C:/Scummgames/MonkeyIsland/
C:/Scummgames/Loom/

Considering that you only have to add the games once I don't see what the problem is.

As Haze said in regard to MAME: 11 seconds is nothing compared to the amount of time you spend playing the game.

Depends on the view.

A few hundred thousand users x time x amount of games is a long long time.

I would also like such a feature myself, lets see what the Devs have to say, if we filed a proper Feature Request
