Double description error?
« on: 22 June 2026, 22:56 »

Posting this on behalf of someone else that keeps mentioning this but for whatever reason is not reporting to you...

So here it goes, why is "Double description" an issue? Shouldn't any set be allowed to have any description since it doesn't impact the set name on the filesystem? This seems like it may be a bug.

Thanks,

clrmamepro warns about this. You can ignore it. Descriptions can be used for file path naming generation (if the user wants this, more advanced feature, rarely used), that's why the uniqueness is checked....and for emulator devs ;-)
