selecting games through a choice of icons

[davereap]

hi... Ive got dolphin working well, however I am trying to get it setup with three options, to use one of three choices of paths for the iso's or wads, with each choice being obtained by clicking on a different dolphin icon which then runs the program from a separate folder ...
however each time I try to swap, the path seems to be whatever I last used...

can I select somewhere the location where it will save the configuration for each instance of the program.. so they are saved separately

further explanation as its all a bit confusing...
I want three dolphin icons on the desktop.. with each one pulling up a different set of games or wads.... ie one for favourite games, one for all the games, one for all the wads..

any ideas...????

This is quite doable, you just need to be creative n how you set it all up, of which I may have an idea.

But first, upgrade to the latest dev builds from here: https://dolphin-emu.org/download/ as they're faster and more accurate than 4.0.

Now, onto your question. I can think of 2 ways to do this:
1) set up Steam Big Picture with Dolphin and use different categories for your games. Kinda like how I have mine set up:

My Steam Big Picture:

2) do some trickery with how you set up the folders, of which I have a rough idea on how to do. If you don't want to go the first route then I will figure out the details on this.
