VPMAlias Question

[Auglaize99]

I am new to this and trying to understand the value of VPMAlias.txt.

Let’s say I have the Flash table and then I add a table with a PUP Pack that uses the same rom.

To make it so that the Pup Pack doesn’t run when I play Flash could I:

1. copy and rename rom to flash_l1b
2. change script in PUP Pack table to ConstcGameName = “flash_l1b”
3. change name of PUP Pack video folder to flash_l1b
4.  If using altcolor, make sure that folder is renamed to flash_l1b

Would that work? If so, any disadvantage to this approach? Are there other things that would need to be changed (copied/renamed)?

If I use VPMAlias.txt- “flash_l1b, flash_l1”    does that mean I can skip #1 above but still need to do 2-4? What are advantages to this approach?

Thanks. This community is amazing, I have learned so much in just one month.

Yes. you seem to have understood, though your naming scheme sucks. It would be much better if you use names that makes more sense. Like ‘mandalorian’ in point 2-4.
