RoM-Jacket
ver .02b
What it is:
Easily add, control and play games with your joystick from your favorite media-center.
RoM-Jacket was created to allow roms to be launched with a configuration unique to the game, indipendent of the emulator and within a library structure compatible with popular media-center/arcade front-ends such as XBMC, Hyperspin, Game-EX, Media Browser/Gamebrowser etc...
The process of creating and updating a library of roms for a front-end is greatly automated through the use of the drag'n drop interface provided by RoM-Jacket.

What it does:

- Creates a library structure for emulated console and arcade systems.
- Generates joystick profiles and a rom-launcher for each rom inside a folder of its name.
- Configures the Media Browser plugin: Gamebrowser 1.x and XBMC plugins: Advanced Launcher and Rom Collection Browser.
How it works:
RoM-Jacket uses dirty-logic to determine your existing library's contents and roms you want.
RoM-Jacket will introduce itself and make obscene gestures. RoM-Jacket knows what to do with your bios. Just relax and let RoM-Jacket handle your joystick.
:NOTE:
This program is not even a program but a piece of scrippery taking your computer from behind and having its way with it. It is made of glue and macaroini and was written with crayons.
I take no responsibility for any damage Rom-Jacket may cause upon execution.
:NOTE:
Instructions
Install the program, initialize RoM-Jacket and go through the wizard.
Once complete you can configure RoM-Jacket and three icons will appear on the desktop:
- Rj_Configurator
- RoM-Jacket-Folder
- BIOS-Folder
General usage:
Copy roms into the RoM-Jacket-Folder and then use the Configurator to update and/or configure your library. You may also drag'n drop roms you wish to add to your library onto the "Rj_Configurator" icon on your desktop to update your library automatically.
*note*
Depending on the number of roms in your library, an update may take several minutes.
BIOS Files:
Bios files for your emulators may be dragged into the Bios-Folder to be added automatically or through the Configurator.
*CD IMAGES AND UNRECOGNIZED ROMS*
CD/DVD based games are supported, however require manual sorting. The following extensions are CD/DVD based and/or not unique:
.iso

A wizard is provided to assist in sorting these manually.
