Re: Play in windowed mode
Thanks for the reply.
Where is emustation passing the config to retroarch? So I may edit it there.
Moreover I wish to enable the threaded video by default, otherwise all my emu are very laggy.
EDIT:
I tried to put this in retrobat.ini but is ignored:
[RetroArch]
DefaultVideoDriver="glcore"
video_fullscreen="false"
video_threaded="true"
Moreover I tried to edit the es_systems.cfg (and putting in a readonly state) with the following to each system:
--appendconfig ~\..\append.cfg
EG:
<command>%HOME%\emulatorLauncher.exe %CONTROLLERSCONFIG% -appendconfig ~\..\append.cfg -system %SYSTEM% -emulator %EMULATOR% -core %CORE% -rom %ROM%</command>
and I put those two options in the append.cfg but they are ignored as well.
So I tried to check what is the emulatorLauncher.exe is doing but I couldn't find it on the repo, is it closed source?

Re: Play in windowed mode
Hello,
Don't try to randomly add parameters in retrobat.ini. Only those already in the file are read.
Lorenzolamas told you that's not possible to launch emulators windowed. Emulators are not directly launched by ES, RetroBat use instead a launcher "emulatorlauncher.exe" written in C# which is passing the command line when launching an emulator. These parameters are hardcoded and they overwrite the settings.
The sources are here:

Re: Play in windowed mode
Doesn't seems a good idea to hardcode something that cannot be rewritten imho...
How can I add custom parameters to this emulatorLauncher?

By learning C# and make your own build ?
Then, while learning and reading the sources, you will understand why we're doing like this.

I don't know C# so much but I am developing for 351ELEC and we are able to edit the options even from retroarch.
The system is coming from the same base idea: emustation + retroarch + standalones.
So I think that a different solution is possible: instead of hardcoding everything you can just override what is configured from emustation, but what is not configured/configurable can be edited on RetroArch as there is not a full override
