General / Re: Portable mode or relative paths
« on: June 24, 2020, 07:14:14 AM »
Hi, just registered to notify the following:

I was trying to get my setup to work with relative paths, but for some strange reason I could not get it to work, until I moved AttractMode into a subfolder.
Snap etc would load fine, but could not get the game to start.

So NOT working:
Filestructure:
  \AttractMode
  \Emulators\RetroArch

And then trying to launch roms with ..\Emulators\RetroArch\retroarch.exe
Code: [Select]
#
executable        ..\Emulators\RetroArch\retroarch.exe
args                 -L cores\nestopia_libretro.dll "[romfilename]"
rompath           ..\Roms\Nintendo NES\Roms
romext             .nes;.unf;.unif;.fds;.zip;.rar;.7z
system             Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)
info_source       thegamesdb.net
artwork    flyer  ..\Roms\Nintendo NES\Assets\Boxart
artwork    snap  ..\Roms\Nintendo NES\Assets\Snap


Working:
Filestructure:
  \Frontend\AttractMode
  \Emulators\RetroArch

And then launch roms with ..\..\Emulators\RetroArch\retroarch.exe
Code: [Select]
#
executable        ..\..\Emulators\RetroArch\retroarch.exe
args                 -L cores\nestopia_libretro.dll "[romfilename]"
rompath           ..\..\Roms\Nintendo NES\Roms
romext             .nes;.unf;.unif;.fds;.zip;.rar;.7z
system             Nintendo Entertainment System (NES)
info_source       thegamesdb.net
artwork    flyer  ..\..\Roms\Nintendo NES\Assets\Boxart
artwork    snap  ..\..\Roms\Nintendo NES\Assets\Snap


I have absolutely no idea why. But maybe it could help others..
