Save core option in config file

RetroArch General
#1

I would like to know if is posible to save in config file specific options for core.

For example, i would like to create one config file for each region of sega genesis. genesis_plus_gx_libretro_eur.cfg genesis_plus_gx_libretro_usa.cfg genesis_plus_gx_libretro_jap.cfg

Region is an option of genesis plus core.

Some games are multi-region so it would allow me in a laucnher to launch game with desired version.

Thanks !

You can make as many config files as you want, you’ll just need a way to differentiate between them in the frontend. For something like Advanced Launcher in XBMC, you could set up the different regions as entirely different systems and add ‘-c /path/to/region-specific.cfg’ to the launch line for each one.

Yes but it seems that region option of genesis plus core isn’t saved in config file.

Core options are saved in the core options file, usually retroarch-core-options.cfg, so if you want different options for different games you can specify a different core options file in the normal config

For instance I have:

core_options_path = “config\htpc\custom_snes-options.cfg”

Perfect !
