General Discussion & Help / Re: Can't get custom launcher to work
« on: November 22, 2017, 08:43:37 AM »
Hi,

Try using \ instead of / for your executable command line

executable = F:\RocketLauncher\RocketLauncher.exe

This was the key. Thanks for the tips guys. It doesn't seem to like relative paths either, but it's working with a fixed path.

General Discussion & Help / Can't get custom launcher to work
« on: November 21, 2017, 09:30:48 AM »
I've created a custom launcher for RocketLauncher thus:

Code: [Select]
executable = F:/RocketLauncher/RocketLauncher.exe
arguments = "%ITEM_COLLECTION_NAME%" "%ITEM_NAME%"

However, when I try to launch it nothing happens. A look at the log suggests that the variables are working correctly and indeed the same command works fine from the command line, just not from RetroFE.

Code: [Select]

Am I missing something?

Yeah, I ended up making a batch file to do it. Thanks for the confirmation though!

General Discussion & Help / Changing the defaults for new systems.

Is there a way to change the default settings.conf before adding a new system, or a global settings.conf that affects all systems?

I have roughly 70 systems to set up, but changing the settings.conf files manually for each system will be a laborious task. I tried adding a settings.conf file with the correct options to the _common folder, but it is ignored.
