Delete Key

Post by Sick_Mambo »

I would be very happy if someone could make it possible
to delete levels and replays from inside elma.
Would make it alot easier for me to maintain just a little
more order in my elma. I dont wanna bother alt + tabbing
out for an hour to clean up.

Thank you...

Agree
I have like 300 recs and want to remove half of them.
If I want to remove more then 5 five replays I have to write the names of them down.So a delete button would be perfect :)

I don't take that responsibility.
If you are too stupid to use alt-tab, you may be stupid enough to delete files you should keep.

I dont' help stupidity, sorry. And i don't need that feature myself.

Maybe somebody else will take that responsibility.

I've just thought that it would be better if there will be the delete key, but also something like replays and levels archives, so u can group the old ones, if u know what i mean? :roll:

Nope not any "are u sure? y/n" thing, just let the "deleted" levels and replays move to another folder named junk, trash or somthing like that

Actually this feature would rock, but instead of deleting permanently, the "deletion" could actually "move" the deleted replay to another sub-folder called "deleted recs" or something. Then if you delete something you didn't want to, you can get it back from that "trash rec folder". Later you can empty that folder when you're sure you have deleted everything you wanted to.

Hehe, is it dz not read teh above post ;)

Anyway, someone should indeed implement this feature to the game, it would be very useful I think.
Was it cast for the mass who burn and toil?
Or for the vultures who thirst for blood and oil?
