With update 2.12, this just became the single most useful Launchbox plugin in existence. Particularly for those with large collections. You can finally use this caching system and archive your entire set with no launch issues whatsoever.
This plugin was already impressive before 2.12, but I couldn't use it because launching all your games from a cache folder has the unfortunate side effect of making retroarch believe your games are all launching from the same folder, so Content Directory setting over rides do not work. This was a deal breaker for me. 2.12 adds the ability to create per system, or even per game launch folders inside the cache folder so you can still do your Content Directory Overrides in retroarch no problem!
I'm so happy to finally be able to use this plugin. If you have a large collection, you should be using it too.
