Title: Dolphin rom path issue...
Post by: retrogam3 on May 23, 2020, 02:35:34 PM

I have had dolphin setup for a while but I am trying to not have to specify the drive letter, I am trying to get it to look at the home path .\

This works:
workdir              ./dolphin
rompath              E:\NewARCADE\DOLPHIN\GAMES

This doesn't:
workdir              ./dolphin
rompath              ./dolphin/games
or
.\

However this works in mame emulator:
workdir              .\mame
rompath              .\mame\roms

Isn't it that every time you handle with dyanmic paths .\ and working dir, it always begins from there and attract.exe path too?

paths for my test emulator mame2:
C:\attract\attract.exe
C:\attract\EMU\mame2\mame.exe
C:\attract\EMU\mame2\roms

the results for me:

Code: [Select]

executable           .\mame.exe
args                 [name] -skip_gameinfo
workdir              .\EMU\mame2
rompath              .\roms
romext               .zip
