St_Eddie Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) I was wondering whether it's possible to import the self-contained Retroarch exclusive games into LaunchBox? By that, I mean the games which can be launched from the far right menu option within Retroarch (the rocket symbol representing games); games such as Dinothawr, Cannonball and Gong? EDIT: Not sure why this got moved to the 'noobs' section by a mod. It's not really a noob question. For clarity, I'm not enquiring as to how to use Retroarch as an emulator within LaunchBox. I'm specifically asking about how to import the likes of Dinothawr (a game which has it's own section within Retroarch) into LaunchBox.

C-Beats Posted August 10, 2023 Share Posted August 10, 2023 There is no tool to import them but you can manually add them to LaunchBox. The application path would be RetroArch, then the command line parameters would be to open that libretro core (which is what those games are last I knew).

St_Eddie Posted August 10, 2023 Author Share Posted August 10, 2023 (edited) Ah, that makes sense, thank you. Could you please provide me with an example of a command line parameter. For instance, I'm attempting to add Cave Story (which uses the 'nxengine_libretro' core), but using the following command line parameter... -L "cores\nxengine_libretro.dll" ...doesn't work. If you would be so kind as to provide an example of how to launch that core, then I believe that I would be able to set all of the games up using said example as a basis. Thank you.

cpujunkie Posted August 11, 2023 Share Posted August 11, 2023 Might have to run the core and look inside the retroarch history playlist (with a text editor) to see the specifics Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
