There is no category for them

This is a feature I haven't put a lot of work into yet but would be easy enough to add if the code was taken from RetroFlow. For now, focussing on Adrenaline Launcher and collections.

Current categories RetroFlow has that HexFlow Custom doesn't have are: PS Mobile, SCUMMVM, MAME, MAME2003+, FBA, NeoGeo)

Why not merge HexFlow Custom with RetroFlow?

BlackSheepBoy69 commented 5 months ago

It would either cost a lot of startup time or it would lose rolling cache or both.

Most likely the first option (cost a lot of startup time), if I was the one that merged it. With a quick and dirty merge but keeping rolling cache, I'd estimate it would add about 8 seconds to startup time since a second binary would have to run each time to check for scanning some of the categories like PSMobile. Not unbearable, but not ideal.

A few people have their hands on a copy of the non-public version of HexFlow Custom where some of the binary-reading code has been painstakingly rewritten in LUA+ (for binary reading of PSP/PS1, not yet done for PSMobile) so that on that version, a second binary isn't necessary. But it's still in bugtesting.
