Launchbox 1.8 and Dirksimple

[Warborg]

I haven't used my Launchbox on Android in quite a while, but recently decided to start up with it again.  I got most of the stuff working that I wanted, but I cannot get LB to show the DirkSimple RA core.  I have Dragon's Lair running in DirkSimple, but I can't get LB to show me said core anywhere so I'm stuck, and it seems like the ability to "get under the hood" on the Android one is a bit more limited.  HOW can I get it to actually show the DirkSimple core so I can get it to launch my laserdisc games from LB and not have to exit LB and resort to RA itself?

See if this works for you:

Drop the dirk simple core into your LaunchBox\Emulators\RetroArch\Cores

Then in LaunchBox, enter into the Emulator Settings menu for the platform/game you are wanting to adjust, and choose the Default Core option, at the bottom you'll see an option to "Add Downloaded Core..."

You should find the Dirk Simple core in the list, which you can choose.

We'll add this core as an option for the next beta as it looks like it finally made its way into the official build bot.
