Launcher per game
« on: October 14, 2020, 10:38:13 PM »
Hi everyone.

I'm new to this place and a complete newbie to this great frontend.
Could someone tell me if there is any way I can use a specific game launcher.

The problem I have is that I need to be able to launch psx games with retroarch that has several psx cores, since some games do not work correctly with the mednafen psx hw core and I have to launch them with pcsx rearmed.

Thank you in advance and Greetings!

Yes, you can set a game specific launcher in the launchers directory of a collection, e.g. you want to use the mame64 launcher (in stead of the mame launcher) for daytona in the arcade collection, you'd create a collections\arcade\launchers\daytona.conf file, in which you simply put the single word
mame64
This will use the launchers\mame64.conf launcher in stead of the launchers\mame.conf launcher.

I really should explain this better in the documentation; I still haven't been able to find this feature, even though I programmed it ages ago.
