GUI and settings quiery - karry - 01-16-2014

1. Where do i set the path to the user directory ? I absolutely hate software that dumps everything in Users folder. I want to put Dolphin settings, savestates, memcards, gamepad profiles - in Dolphin main directory. How do i do that ?

2. When looking at the game listing in main window, it looks horrible : every game has some quirk in its name. One can be listed entirely in Japanese, another in all caps, yet another with underscores between each word. And i cant see where the emu takes that information from. When looking in properties\iso detail and banner detail - those cant be changed. So how do i change them to a naming system _I_ want ?

Thanks.

1. https://dolphin-emu.org/docs/guides/controlling-global-user-directory/

2. They are taken from the game iso, or save file for wii games.

So...do i rename save files or... ?


RE: GUI and settings quiery - RachelB - 01-16-2014

You could edit the name in the save file, but obviously it'd be overwritten the next time you play the game and save. GC games are easier, since you can just edit the iso once and it'll stay.

So basically it's arbitrary and cant be changed, ever, for no reason in particular. Great.

How is the name given to it by its creators arbitrary?
