Multidisk game switcher
this plugin is not hard coded to require any specific version of dash (fixed in this release) or for any specific game.
!!! DO NOT use this plugin if you have autoswap enabled in Dash Launch 3.02 or higher or if you use freestyle's plugin !!!
What it does:
=============
If you have games with more than one disk installed on your machine, this plugin takes care of switching from one disk to the other ingame (once you set up the multi.ini file if needed, the plugin, and dash launch of course).
install
=======
-add to dash launch plugins
ie:
[Plugins]
plugin1 = Usb:\swap.xex
-place swap.xex on the path you specified above
-edit and place multi.ini on the root of a usb/hdd/memory unit
content partition (just like launch.ini) if needed
-in some cases it seems the plugins were only enabled after running
the dash launch installer again, you may want to give this a try
Auto switching:
===============
GOD ie1:
disk1 = Hdd:\Content\0000000000000000\01234567\00004000\01234567890123456789; // will have 01234567890123456789.data folder beside it
disk2 = Hdd:\Content\0000000000000000\01234567\00004000\98765432109876543210; // will have 98765432109876543210.data folder beside it
GOD ie2:
disk1 = Hdd:\Games\SomeGame\yourselfnameddisk1; // will have yourselfnameddisk1.data folder beside it
disk2 = Hdd:\Games\SomeGame\yourselfnameddisk2; // will have yourselfnameddisk2.data folder beside it
EXTRACTED ie:
disk1 = Hdd:\games\somegame\disk1\default.xex;
disk2 = Hdd:\games\somegame\disk2\default.xex;
- GOD/NXE disk rips on the same disk drive in the same folder will automatically
be found without an ini file and no special naming convention
- EXTRACTED games with the naming above for each disk with the disk# folders all in
the same folder on the same drive will be found without an ini file
- ini file takes precedence and will override these autos, for operations like
GOD to extracted or disk to GOD switching (and similar)
