This will override the above only for this core. opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/config//.cfgįor example, /opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch/config/Stella/Stella.cfg Example: /opt/retropie/configs/atari2600/retroarch.cfg opt/retropie/configs//retroarch.cfg will override the basic options for every game run by this system. This is NOT retroarch.cfg-compatible, it holds keys that are core-specific. Saves all the emulators in one file, and does it the instant you change an option. opt/retropie/configs/all/retroarch-core-options.cfg I’ve got all these in /home/pi for example: coolcv_mapping. Worse, sometimes these aren’t under configs at all.
The actual config file is therefore all the way in /opt/retropie/configs/nds/drastic/config/drastic.cfg! Where you will find an entire directory worth of options including savestates, scripts, cheats, and much more, used by the non-libretro Drastic emulator for Nintendo DS. The config files are subtly different, but on top of that, in the lr-atari800 case some of them are actually overridden by the retroarch config (see the next entry)…Īnother example would be /opt/retropie/configs/nds/drastic/ Which is used by both atari800 (which is not a libretro emu) and by lr-atari800 which is. One example would be /opt/retropie/configs/atari800/atari800.cfg All non-libretro cores also tend to have these. Some cores have their own config files for settings not covered by Retroarch. If you ever need to reset this file to defaults, there is a /opt/retropie/configs/all/-distfile that contains the defaults that you can copy and rename. Unless you have “Save on exit” enabled (which isn’t recommended), it will only save when you manually hit Save Configuration (which is different from Save Core Override). This covers the options for everything in the RGUI except the Options screen. This is the base retroarch.cfg-compatible file. In fact, I don’t even recall where exactly my setup may deviate from the default. So this is a general guide, not something that will be 100% accurate for your specific setup. Some of the various scripts and packages to set up config files may choose different structures for them too.
Some of these files point at others of these files, so it’s possible to end up with a different folder structure for where things live! Overlays, for example, can be done in several ways. If you intend to dive in, it’s worth reading. There is a skeleton version of this file located at /opt/retropie/emulators/retroarch/retroarch.cfg which has comments explaining the options.
All “retroarch.cfg compatible” accept the exact same keys, and are all in Most of the below are what I would call “retroarch.cfg compatible.” Often this means they are literally in a file called “retroarch.cfg”, just in different folders. You may also want to look at the Libretro docs which have additional detail. There’s also documentation on the Wiki but I don’t think it covers everything. Here’s a list of all the ones I know of that affect this sort of option (there are plenty more that affect other sorts of options, such as emulators.cfg which controls what emulators try to boot a given rom). Oh… there are so many other places they are stored. I started it as a reply to that thread, but it got so big that it quickly seemed to merit its own post so that others could see it too.Īre game specific configs stored somewhere other than the ROM folder? Over in the thread “Configuration changes not saving on x86 Retropie” asked “Are game specific configs stored somewhere other than the ROM folder?” And my answer got out of hand.
