Simple nesterDC question

Post by Cabbit »

I have a question. i have nesterDC to work perfectly, useing version
6.0. My question is i have so many roms its hard to find the one i want
sometime (or i get distracted and play a diffrent rom then the one
im looking for) my question is, can i have subdirectory in my roms folder.
(such as have a subdirectory for my favorite games. makeing them easier
to find out of my some hundred games)
Im asking becuase i thought i read something in a readme file somewere
or an faq saying i could use subdirectorys. but i cant find were i saw that
so im just makeing sure it works before i waste another cd.

Thankie for any answers you can give me.

No, It's not "Roms" directory for NesterDC, "games" is the right directory.

Cabbit, how did you make the CD? Did you use MKISOFS? If you used it, did you use "-R" switch. If you haven't used it, rockridge information of the files and folders is not included, so maybe long names arent correctly recognized. I also used "-l" switch.
