Change this file /opt/retropie/configs/mame-libretro/emulators.cfg  (\\retropie\configs\mame-libretro\emulators.cfg if using the SAMBA share) to point to your new retroarch.cfg file.

@howlerbr Put a config file in the same directory as your roms.
So if your game/romset is called sailormn.zip, create a file called sailormn.zip.cfg to put the override settings in.

That will override other retroarch settings.
