RetroArch and fullsets ROMS

Hi guys, I just discovered Retroarch now and I am the work so I cant test it but the concept behind its just great.

Well my doubt is about full sets of roms. Some emulators on xbox 360 dont accept large number of roms in the ROM folder so it crashs.

Does Retroarch have support for large number of roms eg full romsets? Anyone tried?

Keep the good work guys.

I haven’t tried it on 360, but there’s no problem with large romsets on PC, FWIW.

There is no hardcoded limit in the filebrowser code for the amount of files you can have in a single directory at least - however, you should know that FATX (the filesystem used for 360 harddrives) has certain limitations based on what kind of characters you can use in a filename, how many files can be in a directory ( I think the upper limit for 360 FATX is 4096 ) and other things like that.

PS3’s filesystem is far less limiting by comparison.

I see.

I’m at home today and I’ll test to see if it works.

Actually I already tested here and I thought it’s great really. I support the idea, fantastics. I had a problem, I dont know if I should open a new threat but, I cant manage to work the option RESIZE SCREEN. When in game, I tried to put aspect ratio in “custom” mode, but the screen turns to black. I can see that the game is still going cause of the sound, its not frozen, but the screen turns to black and obviously I cant change it back.

Any knowledge about this issue?
