"Configure" is Greyed Out when Selecting Games

[marina]

Hi,

So I just bought the premium license and set it up. However, when I click on a game or right - click it, the "Configure..." menu option is greyed out. I was hoping that by getting the premium version, I would be able to customize the games' (SNES roms) resolution and graphics filters (i.e. scanlines, etc.) settings, just like on other emulator options. 

I set it up through Retroarch and used SNES9X.

Any idea what's going on and how to find what I'm looking for?

Thanks in advance,

M.T

Hi and welcome to the community.  

The configure option in the right click menu is for DOSBOX games really and not emulated games. Any emulator needs it settings setup in the emulator itself first, in your case retroarch, so you will need to set everything up there then save a core overide in the Retroarch UI. That config will then be autoloaded everytime that core is loaded in Retroarch.

Hi, thank you. That explains it.

Unfortunately, I am still not able to find the video configuration for the specific games. Where would I change the games' resolution and graphics filters?

Thanks,

You need to load a game in retroarch first with the core you want to adjust. then go to the quick menu with either F1 or the guide button on the controller. there are many options here that are only available with a game and core loaded.

Go to options to change the resolution although it cant be changed much, its consoles that are 3D that can have resolutions changed.

Then back out and go to shaders and pick your shader and save it as a core preset in the same menu.Back back out a menu and down to Overides.Save core overide, all those setting will now autoload when you start a snes game. If you want to change stuff for a specific game do all the same, but in the overide menu save a game overide instead.
