Still problems with recursive paths

Post by andymania »

- Imagine you have a TOSEC dat of YourFavMachine, releases of magazine 1990-2000.
- You put 1990-1995 in one folder, and 1995-2000 in the other.

Structure is like this:

E:\myfavmachine\myfavmag\
E:\myfavmachine\myfavmag\1990-1995
E:\myfavmachine\myfavmag\1995-2000

Now you think you're clever and just set ROM path to
E:\myfavmachine\myfavmag\.

RC will show the contents correctly recursively, but you cannot do any fixing in either of both folders. (i. e. there's no yellow-ish winzip icon)

Surprisingly, if you directly set E:\myfavmachine\myfavmag\1990-1995 resp. E:\myfavmachine\myfavmag\1995-2000, you DO see those winzip icons and can do your fixing work.

Maybe this can be implemented.
Current workaround (even in 2.70b2) is to set EVERY rom folder by hand, and not the parent folder containing those.
