Launchbox doesn't detect 64-bit Retroarch?

[Holyblade]

I went to the RA website and downloaded / installed the 64-bit version apk, and Launchbox does not detect this.

I know the 64-bit version of RA still receives updates, so can Launchbox insert a way to verify that the 32-bit version -or- the 64-bit version is installed on the system? I'm currently not seeing any way to do this.

Go into a platform, top right menu, enter into Emulator Settings. In the top dropdown choose RetroArch (64 bit). I think that's it.

There's actually 3 (maybe more?) sideloaded versions of RetroArch out there. There's the 32 bit, the 64 bit, and then a universal one that combines them into one apk and does some logic to determine which one to install. Our integrated version that we download is the universal one, however, we have emulator configurations for the others under a platforms Emulator Settings. If you want to take advantage of the user friendly automatic RetroArch/core downloads, updates and configuration you'd have to use the universal one, but if you want more manual, power user, level control, you'd just switch to any of the others.
