Hi Angelscry & ALA community,
Request/Suggestion/Thought:
"Run Before" & "Run After" inputs for Launchers & Roms.
I'd like to be able to run Xpadder with different configurations depending on the Emulator I'm using. I think the best way to do this would be to include a Run Before option for Launchers. I can simply type the command-line argument that I want to run before and after ALA launches the Emulator. I'd like to do something like this:
So I can pass arguments to the command line both before and after ALA runs the emulator.
The problem is that I would need to specify "Run Before" and "Run After" for each Rom, but still have a "default" value. I run a variety of Windows games on my computer and many require a different Xpadder layout.
This solution isn't perfect, but it would solve my problem. Has anyone encountered this problem and solved it? Can anyone help with a better solution? It's driving me nuts!
Would EventGhost be able to solve this problem? ie, use EventGhost to detect a certain application launch, then run Xpadder when it opens and kill it when it closes?
