Describe the FR

In older versions, there was a seperate "PS1 GAMES" menu to access those games with Popstarter, why do we not have this anymore?

Describe the solution you'd like

Maybe add this page back into OPL?

but why won't it be re-added?

ElPatas1 commented 1 year ago

@bobox911, those versions that have a page dedicated to PS1 games of the POPS emulator, are versions of a fork made by a user against the development of the OPL with this theme.

That page is nothing more than a duplicate of the applications page.

In the OPL, both in old versions and in modern versions, the executables of the PS1 games have always been loaded from the applications page.

That is why what you say does not make any sense, because there is nothing to "re-add".

So configure the launch of the emulator games from the applications menu as it has always been done, and you will be able to load them into the new versions of the OPL.

There are applications to make it easier to configure PS1 games from the OPL applications menu, such as POPS2APPS:
