Schitti Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Is there a way to disable the internal Stella Database with the deposited gameinformations? Thanks in advance Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stephena Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Not sure what the use-case for this would be. Please discuss why you would need such a thing, and then we can see if the functionality is already there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schitti Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) OK i try to explain. if I make screenshots in Stella with F12, then the information of the supposed dump (from the internal database) is stored in the file.Even if I mark in the options that the filename from the dump is chosen for the name of the generated screenshot, then information from the internal database is still written in the file.Of course, I can save the generated file again to remove this information, but that's another step i might save myself if I can turn off the database. Maybe there is another way without changin each rom information by hand. here is a example i mean only the ROM Name Edited August 31, 2018 by Schitti Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
+stephena Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 If you simply want to have the ROM filename saved instead of the properties filename, then that is easily accomplished. In fact, it could be considered a bug that it is using the properties name when you've selected to use actual filename. So that can easily be fixed. However, I'm still not clear on why it is a big deal at all. I can fix it, of course. The internal properties database will not be disabled, since it's integral to how Stella works. But I can certainly look into fixing the bug you mentioned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schitti Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 Can you elaborate that in more detail, please? sure, I apologize. The short version is that I would use screenshots that may contain incorrect information. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Thomas Jentzsch Posted August 31, 2018 Share Posted August 31, 2018 Hm, if there is incorrect information in Stella's database, then this should be corrected. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Schitti Posted August 31, 2018 Author Share Posted August 31, 2018 (edited) yes, That would be a separate mission, for which I have no idle time. ... and i did not say that there is an error in the database.
