Suggestion: pass custom .cfg to Phoenix via command line

RetroArch General
#1

I was looking to set up shortcuts to automatically configure Retroarch Phoenix for various consoles, but it seems the best you can currently do is

  • Open Phoenix
  • Manually load a different .cfg file

It would be nice to be able to feed Phoenix .cfg files via the command line, just like you can with Retroarch itself.

In the meantime I may try to replicate this functionality with batch files, which Iā€™m not very good at. :wink:

You mean passing Phoenix .cfg file over command line?

#3

Ah, yes.

To affect this field in retroarch-phoenix.cfg:

config_path = ā€œā€

#4

Err, wait, you mean changing the RetroArch config path, not phoenix config path?

#5

Apologies if unclear. I mean whatever this field is:

It would be nice to be able to specify that to Phoenix from the command line.

#6

Oh, I see. I might look at that when I have time.

EDIT: Had some time today I guess after all. Implemented it.

That was fast. Thanks!
