yajinni Posted October 12, 2015 Author Posted October 12, 2015 Topic kind of is the question lol Is retroarch portable like launchbox is? So can all its configuration be pointed to inside its self? It seems all its paths are absolute vs relative in its configuration files. I plan on using my setup on multiple machines and have it synced though dropbox so i dont want things being broken as a result. Quote
Jason Carr Posted October 13, 2015 Posted October 13, 2015 Hi @yajinni, yes, Retroarch can be configured to be portable, though it uses strange syntax for it. The configuration files use this syntax: :\assets Which means the assets folder inside of the Retroarch folder. Quote
yajinni Posted October 13, 2015 Author Posted October 13, 2015 Awesome thanks for the reply and answer. Quote
dmjohn0x Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 There is no "portable mode" then? I need to manually edit all of RA's config files? Quote

Suhrvivor Posted February 9, 2018 Posted February 9, 2018 It's not 100% portable as it now. Shaders config files for instance use full paths for some reason but you can edit them and make them relative and they'll work. I guess that if you don't use shaders you can say that it's fully portable. Quote
