Title: Little bit of help with the xml editing... on Aeon Nox theme (Solved)
Post by: retro6 on March 01, 2017, 05:01:03 PM
Helo guys and sorry to desturbe, may i ask for a little bit of help??? 8)

Im using HyperRom2XML editor to create my own xml files for the use of rocketlauncher and it works perfect ;D

Buuut im using the Aeon Nox theme on RetroFE and i want to put in the tags like the Year, Manufacture etc......

This is how the program brings it out

<game name="Dragon Ball Z - The Legacy of Goku (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It)" index="" image="">
   <description>Dragon Ball Z - The Legacy of Goku</description>
   <cloneof></cloneof>
   <crc></crc>
   <manufacturer></manufacturer>
   <year></year>
   <genre></genre>

But even if i put the year and all the information i need it will not apear on the Aeon Nox theme

Im using Notpad++ what am i doing wrong, is there any edtior or somthing to create my own lists?

Thanks guys

Which version of RetroFE are you running? You may need to delete meta.db to make it work for you.

    <manufacturer /></manufacturer>

Too many / for Manufacturer
You only need a / in the first one if you are NOT using the closing one (</manufacturer>)
So, just remove the </manufacturer> and it will work

ie:

<manufacturer /> is exactly the same as using <manufacturer></manufacturer>

Aeon Nox is the default theme, and included in the full release.
