General / History.dat support
« on: October 16, 2014, 12:30:12 AM »
Hi! Are there any plans for History.dat support? If not I'm looking into making a plugin that reads and parses it, but just wanted to make sure before I start working on it :P

Scripting / Retrieving path to artwork folder
« on: October 16, 2014, 12:05:41 AM »
Hi! I'm currently working on a theme, and i've implemented so it checks if a game's image exist, and if it doesn't it substitutes it with a Text object with the games title instead (Kind of how Hyperspin does it) using Squirrel's fopen function. This works really well the only problem is that I can't figure out a way to actually get the configured artwork path, so right now I have to have a separate Layout Option where the user specifies the artwork path which works but is not ideal, since the user now has to specify it in two separate places, also this probably won't work with multiple emulators that has different artwork paths :P

Is there a way to get the path to an artwork from the configuration, without having to manually parse and search the config files?
