7zip ROMs in RetroArch

[angelobodetti]

Hello, All of my cartridge system Roms are in 7z format instead of zip. Using ReteoArch directly and using RocketLauncher I can get it to work. How can I get LB to load 7z with RetroArch? Something I need to put in the command line? Thank you

I'll have to check which compression method my games are in but they work fine in LB with just RA.

Edit the emulator and check the box to "extract rom archives before running". Make sure to not have this checked for MAME and some emulators don't need them decompressed.

Thank you - The decompress check box should do it. Only issue is that the decompress is per emulator not per system. Thank you!

Yeah if you are using MAME or any of the CPS Neo Geo stuff in RA that won't work you would need to set up another instance of the emulator in LB and use the different settings.
