What it does:
If you have games with more than one disk installed on your machine, this plugin takes care of switching from one disk to the other in-game, when the game asks for the next one. It's a DashLaunch plugin by cOz, the DashLaunch author, so you still need DashLaunch set up.
Version 1.3 handles GOD and NXE installs and extracted games on its own, so in most cases you no longer need a multi.ini at all:
Don't use it if you have autoswap enabled in DashLaunch 3.02 or later, or if you use FreeStyle Dash's own swap plugin. The two will fight.
install:
Add it to the plugins in your launch.ini:
-place swap.xex on the path you specified above
-only if you need it, edit multi.ini and place it on the root of a usb/hdd/memory unit
content partition (just like launch.ini)
-in some cases it seems the plugin was only enabled after running
the dash launch installer again, you may want to give this a try
multi.ini:
The section name is the game's Title ID in lower case, with one line per disk. The example in the zip is Dead Space 2:
For an extracted game the path must end in a backslash, and the folder needs a default.xex in it (even a 0-byte one). For a GOD game, point at the CON file in Content\0000000000000000\<TitleID>\00007000\ and do not end the path with a backslash. You can find the Title ID in FSD, with xextool, or from the folder name that ISO2GOD or the NXE install creates.
The old 1.1 is in this thread if you need it.

Version 1.3 handles GOD and NXE installs and extracted games on its own, so in most cases you no longer need a multi.ini at all:
- GOD and NXE rips of the same game, on the same drive in the same folder, are found automatically. No special naming. (Made them with ISO2GOD? Then this is your case.)
- Extracted games are found automatically if each disk sits in a folder called disk1, disk2 and so on inside the same folder, each with its default.xex.
- multi.ini still works and overrides the automatic matching, for mixed setups such as disk 1 as GOD and disk 2 extracted.
- GOD devices are cleaned up when you exit the game, and the Trinity (slim) memory unit is now searched for multi.ini.
Don't use it if you have autoswap enabled in DashLaunch 3.02 or later, or if you use FreeStyle Dash's own swap plugin. The two will fight.
