Ability to change disc # in the application? #50

Don't know if this is possible, but I figured I'd bring it up with the hidden multi disc support being fixed on openmenu.

Some games have incorrectly labeled disc #'s. I don't know if it is an issue with the dumps (I have tried quite a few for these games), an issue with how the game was programmed, or an issue with the gdmenucardmanager applications.

Some Examples: Sakura Wars is 2 discs and disc 1 is labeled 1/3 and disc 2 is labeled 2/3. Sakura Wars 2 is 3 discs and disc 1 is labeled 5/7, disc 2 is labeled 6/7, and disc 3 is labeled 7/7. Real Sound - Kaze no Regret has 2 discs and they are both labeled 1/3.

If there is a way to fix this outside of the application let me know also please :)

Hi.

What a mess with those games discs! XD

I don't know if there's any tool to edit this without requiring a complete rebuild of the disc's image. AFAIK the disc swap feature will just load the next grouped disc. If they are sequential, it should work.

I can take a look into adding this feature to the app but I can't do it in the near future. Too little time to work on it and still some bugs to fix.

I appreciate you even just looking into it, so thank you very much for that.

You are right the disc swapping works no problem, but with openmenu there is a feature that lets you combine the multi-disc games into one listing in the menu. The problem is when you have games with incorrectly labeled disc numbers it causes some issues. As seen in these screenshots Sakura Wars 2 just completely is removed from the games list. vcs_EIHnEawyQB vcs_Kf6CtG8T3W
