| Summary |
 05443: when launching softlist items without the media switch, MESS ignores hashpath option from mess.ini |
||||
| Description |
When using the shortcut "mess system game" launch option, MESS ignores the non-default hashpath defined in mess.ini If an alternative hashpath is specified at command line, it is acknowledged If the game is launched in the canonical way "mess system -media game" the hashpath from mess.ini is acknowledged too |
||||
| Steps To Reproduce |
1. create a folder hash1/ and move there from hash/ an xml list (e.g. n64.xml) 2. edit hashpath in mess.ini to point to hash1 3. try to launch a game from the xml list without the media switch (e.g. mess n64 sm64u) and you will be prompted with an empty best match list (because the loading routine recognizes you are launching from softlist, but it cannot find the xml entries to suggest 4(optional) compare the result with the canonical launching procedure (e.g. mess n64 -cart sm64u), where everything works fine |
