Gentleman v1.5.2 has been released. Gentleman is an emulator frontend for PC, inspired by MiSTer. Its objective is to replicate the straightforward, rapid, menu-driven experience of the MiSTer interface within a PC emulator environment. Rather than depending on a database-heavy frontend, Gentleman constructs its menu using a standard menu/folder structure. Folders represent menu categories, and JSON files serve as launcher entries.

Gentleman Changelog:
This update prioritizes enhancing Modern Mode game lists, particularly for multi-disc games and folder management.
Changes
Introduced optional grouping for multi-disc games in Modern Mode.
Multi-disc games now can be displayed as a singular game entry, featuring a disc selection dialog.
Grouping for multi-disc games is applicable to both folder-contained and loose disc files.
Modern Mode game lists are now sorted alphabetically by their displayed titles, including scraped titles.
Standard folders remain at the top of game lists.
Grouped multi-disc games are sorted similarly to regular games, not as folders.
Following a scrape of a single game, Gentleman will now return focus to that game after the list refreshes.
Standard folders in Modern Mode game lists will feature a theme-colored folder icon.
Highlighted folders will also display the folder icon in the boxart preview area.
