Feature Request: Game Specific Options

[teconmoon]

As we know when it comes to weird graphics settings, not all games are equal. This request is for bsnes-hd to be able to remember specific settings for specific games.

For example, GLideN64 can remember game-specific settings so that I could enable a graphic setting for one specific game without affecting others. This is essentially what I am requesting.

Please let me know if this needs clarification, or if this is already planned, or is out of scope for bsnes-hd and will never happen. Thanks for reading!

I'll put this on the list of things for which I look for volunteers. Someone with more C++ experience should be able to add this much easier than me.
Maybe I'll put together a simple external tool to launch games with their own settings being copied in and out before and after

I ended up making some batch files that do this, though it might not be as convenient. It is a temporary solution.

• First I made a folder called presets in the root directory of bsnes.
  
• Then I made two folders in presets called alttp and metroid
  
• I configured the settings for A Link to the Past and copied configuration.bml into the alttp
• Do the same for Super Metroid and copy the configuration.bml into the metroid folder
• I then made 2 .bat files in the root directory

alttp.bat

xcopy /u /y %~dp1presets\alttp\configuration.bml "%~dp0"

metroid.bat

xcopy /u /y %~dp1presets\metroid\configuration.bml "%~dp0"

Hopefully this helps, you can run the batch files and it will copy the specified options now.

Added a simple version, see readme. I'll expand it in the next releases.
