Sytemname not correct in Retroarch


Chris Kant

Recommended Posts

I am using the new Android App of Launchbox on my Galaxy Tab 6s Lite and it works well. sure there is a lot of room for improvements compared to the Windows version but I like it.

only real downside for me in my set up is that Launchbox is not giving Retroarch the correct system naming, which results in strange naming in the saves and states folder. In Windows everything works like charm.

I am using Launchbox on one Android Tablett, Shield and Windows. through all three systems I am using an application to sync these saves and states, so I can continue my game wherever I want to. that's the idea. and it works if I only use Retroarch for this.

On Android Launchbox gives a new "code" as the system for every game. I played yesterday a handful of GameBoy Advance Games and each game has its own folder. is this something that can be solved with one of the next iteration / updates of Launchbox or is this an issue with Android and transferring things from one application to another? I hope there will be a solution for this because this would be the reason not to use Launchbox anymore 😞

@Chris Kant That's an interesting observation, though I don't know of a solution (or if one even exists). The first thing to check would be to see if you see the same behavior with a different frontend (such as Dig).

thanks for the reply. I don't use Dig or anything else. I also stopped using Launchbox on my Android Device because of this. maybe someone else can test this
