Override config
This might already be possible, if so apologies..
Is it possible to have an "override" config. That is, if activated any options set in the config override what is set in the currently loaded config, and if the option is not in the override config then the config isn't touched. |

Sounds a bit like loading a default cfg?
Maybe I'm reading it wrongly? |

Yes, so let's say I have the following GFX/Display config settings in 300 configs (I have cut it down) Code:
gfx_display=0 gfx_framerate=1 gfx_width=720 gfx_height=568 gfx_width_windowed=720 gfx_height_windowed=568 gfx_width_fullscreen=640 gfx_height_fullscreen=480 gfx_refreshrate=0 gfx_vsync=false gfx_lores=false gfx_linemode=double gfx_fullscreen_amiga=true gfx_fullscreen_picasso=false gfx_center_horizontal=smart gfx_center_vertical=smart gfx_colour_mode=32bit gfx_blacker_than_black=false gfx_api=direct3d gfx_filter_scanlines=50 gfx_filter_autoscale=none Search through all the configs and change the Code:
fx_fullscreen_amiga=true With an override config, I can tick a box (that stays ticked) and then it overrides. The override could contain just Code:
fx_fullscreen_amiga=false |

Funnily enough, I was thinking about such a feature just recently. I always want my XBox 360 controller to be used as a CD32 pad, no matter what the current config says. Ditto for display settings. An "overide host config" would be ideal.
Previously, to get around this, I've used the "Find in files..." feature of Notepad++ to replace all the desired config values at once in all of my config files. I guess both methods amount to the same thing. |

Thanks, I can do this in notepad++ also, but I think a solution where you don't edit configs would be good |

config_all_path=<config file> or config_host_path/config_hardware_path=<config file> (only loads host or hardware specific lines) probably does what you want.
Same as config panel "Additional Information" Set -> Link does. |
