I need help creating Arcade "gamelist.xml", filtering games by genre

Hello Dink.

The mentioned app can only be used with the Mame executable.

I can't use the Mame files directly because there are a lot of roms for FBNeo with different rom names. For example all the hacks not avalaible in Mame.
Those games are not mentioned in the Mame xml files.

Where does FBNeo get the genre info from the game select menu?. Any format will suffice, dat, xml, txt, xls...I just need to generate several txt files with the rom names under each category.

Thanks a lot for your assitance.

Regards ;).

Afaik, people are using some tool called "catlist" when sorting romsets by genre. I can't give you details about it though since i never used it.

Hello.

I will see if I can sort the games that way.

I was hoping a list in any format already existed, since you can sort the games through FBNeo menu.

Thanks a lot.

Afaik, there is no such thing as a genre tag in dat files. MAME doesn't have it either.
Most likely that tool you are using is internally using catlist.

Thanks again, I will see what I can find.
