Producing a legible list of game names from rom names ?


Recommended Posts

I"m trying to find a way to produce a meaningful list of Arcade game names from a rom directory.

 

IE I'd like some sort of app that can read a directory that contains roms, and generate a list of the full game names from the rom names, which aren't always meaningful.

 

Does anyone know of such an app for windows that can do that ?

 

Cheers,J

You could always read it directly from the description field in the list.xml file. A little smarts inside excel or powershell could extract the field into a single file:

 

<game name="puckman" sourcefile="pacman.c">

<description>PuckMan (Japan set 1, Probably Bootleg)</description>

<year>1980</year>

 

You'd need to generate it first from mame
