Noob question

Hey there!

Just installed RetroArch in my Wii and my ass is sort of being handled to me. I’ve searched for a readme.txt to no avail.

Could someone point me to a FAQ or anything like it for first users? Even a simple “You should put ROMs in this directory instead of choosing ‘Load Content (Detect Core)’ all the time” would help me a LOT.

I’m really sorry for the trouble, but I tried my best and it wasn’t enough. :confused:

It doesn’t really matter where you put your ROMs, just make sure you set that as your browser path in the path settings. Using core-detection every time is fine, though. Button remapping has to be done through the cfg file in the last stable release, IIRC, but you can remap them through the in-game menu in the upcoming release.

What else do you need to know?

Thanks a lot, HunterK. I’ve set the directories as browser paths and it really helped.

At this exactly moment I’m trying to remap buttons in PrDoom. I can’t find the default button for weapon change, for example. So if I try to remap through the cfg will I be able to find which button does what?

Edit: Well, I got it by trial and error. :slight_smile:
