Hi there,
I updated two days ago my retroarch installation with the latest nightly.
Everything worked fine beside that, I don’t remember my previous version number, but it was updated at the beginning of the year I believe.
Right now, my installation is a bit messed up. It seems that Retroarch doesn’t recognize anymore the default system folder and where it’s located.
Except for roms, all the folders used by Retroarch are the default ones. Retroarch finds my roms without problems, it also finds the assets, thumbnails, almost everything I’d say, but it doesn’t seem to recognize the System folder for whatever reason.
When I try to start a game from my playlists, a new folder for the core is created at the root of the disk where Retroarch is installed.
Details:
My retroarch installation folder is the following one: G:={ Emulators[X] RetroArch
Here is the one for my Playstation ISOS for example: G:={ Emulators[PS] Playstation
And here’s the default System folder I always used before: G:={ Emulators[X] RetroArch\system
Now, for example, if I want to play Donkey Kong Country (SNES) with Bsnes-Mercury core, it creates a folder here: G:\bsnes-mercury (DKC.srm being created here)
My retroarch gamepad remaps are not functional for each cores either apparently, but I can navigate the menus like before without problems.
What happened and how to fix this ? It’s weird because it doesn’t seem to affect all the default folders, just the system one, and perhaps a few others, I’m not too sure.
EDIT: Seems the backslash doesn’t appear everywhere in my folders paths here, probably due to html I guess, hope it’s clear though.
EDIT2: Also: yes, all my folders appears correctly located when I check the desktop configuration, all have the same custom path that used to work before the update.
