I installed retroarch onto iphone using cydia impactor, so like xcode u need to resign and rebuild every week. when i rebuild, my saves and roms are still there, but all the menu textures are gone, the online updater will download but not extract updates, and i have no overlays. It always works fine on the first time i build the app, but if i dont delete it then reinstall it i get these weird glitches
help?
(ios 10 iphone 5s)
Every time you reinstall, the root path of the application changes, and so the paths to the overlay directories and so forth become invalid (they’re absolute paths for some reason).
You can try to edit the retorarch.cfg and edit the paths but you’d have to know the application’s identifier (the old and new ones) and do a search and replace on it. You can do this by saving a new retroarch configuration file and comparing it with your old configuration. The old app identifier is in the old config, and the new one is in the newly saved config, so you can do a find/replace on it.
The app’s identifier is the [XXXX] portion of /Application/[XXXX]/Documents/RetroArch/…
Ok wow im confused can u make it possible for an idiot like me to understand?
Is it possible to resign the app without modifying it?
Saw you message, let me reply here. its faster.
What you can do, is, delete Old Retroarch app from your device every time you have to resign a new one and copy all the data was on the other one to the new one. That what i do.
