RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - lefty420 - 2016-01-21
Congrats on getting android working! I know that's been a right bugger for you.
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - int13h - 2016-01-22
Excellent work
Thanks ZachMorris !
An almost ideal emu add-on...
PS : I'd love a setting like this : [x] Show only "Best Of" collections
PS2 : and a revamped Search menu
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - Solo0815 - 2016-01-22
Haven't tested the latest version, but can you please add a "A-Z" selector to the gamelist?
Then you can straight go to "S" and don't have to go through all the gamelist pages when you search a game starting with "S".

Yeah, I'm working on a method to 'hide' listings people dont want to see. In the meantime, you can manually remove listings you're not interested in.
As for the search menu... I'll be the first to admit I'm not an artist. If there are any skinners out there who'd like to help me out and make it prettier that'd be great (for search menu and for the Game preview window).
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - zachmorris - 2016-01-26
Version 1.4.2 has been updated in my repo:
- Added setting to allow Android users to define retroarch config location
- Added code to try to define Android retroarch config location if no user location is defined (addon will search for the cfg file if there isn't one defined)
- Changed external launching database to define wildcard for retroarch config file for Android
- Added settings to allow user to view listing of games by A-Z instead of just one big list (see addon settings)
- Added settings to allow user to hide a game archive they don’t want to see in the list (see game archive settings)
- Added advanced setting to allow user to reset all hidden archive listings (see addon settings)
- Fixed bug when searching for ROM and playing game using retroplayer (search window would inadvertently jump in front)
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - int13h - 2016-01-27
Great !
I do manually remove some listings, but it would be perfect if I could do that in the add-on options, directly.
About the search menu : I'm not fond of the way it looks, but that's not the problem actually. What bothers me is the box where you enter search string which is hardly visible, and the fact that after a search I sometimes get stuck in the search menu without any possibility to go back/exit.
It might be related to the bug you corrected, don't know. I have to check on my side.
additional ideas :
- show only retroarch cores related to selected listing (some kind of filter)
- in search menu show only non-hidden listings
Thanks anyway !

RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - druu - 2016-01-30
I've discovered the issue above, an autoupdate had installed the newer version from repo over the top. I uninstalled both and installed the 'iarl-master' zip from git and it seems to work fine again.
Any idea why OE users need to install from iarl-master zip and not a direct install from repo?

It looks like I introduced a bug in the last update. I've fixed it, should be updated in the repo in a bit.

I fixed it on github, just haven't pushed it to the repo yet, hence the difference.
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - druu - 2016-01-30
Awesome, thanks for the prompt fix.
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - zachmorris - 2016-01-30

Hey zack good job on the fix now working fine on OE 6.0.1. Best of TG16 isnt working for me, but the normal Tg16 runs fine. Let me know if you need a log.
