retropie-like script for Windows 7, 8, and 10. RetroCake

Can you check something in the new bat/install - I can no longer save per core (ppsspp etc),

Is that working your end?

I managed to fix it as i made a copy of my original retroarch folder and simply copied back over the new folder.

UPDATE:
Think I got it.
As some point I broke retroarch.cfg, and I didn't take into account weird permissions.
I now have a permission check/set.

Download the new script.
It'll fix permissions on the first launch.
You can fix any retroarch issues by going to Manage RetroArch -> Generate Clean RetroArch.cfg
It's fixed for all future installations.

Looking into it, I am also having issues.
I have narrowed it down to the RetroArch Installation.
Something seems to be going wrong there with both the nightly and stable builds.

@flerp - great, will take a look.

Was excited to try this but Windows Defender says your zip contains the trojan Fuery.A!cl and deletes the whole thing.

@Flerp any idea why WIn 10 is reporting this as malware?

BinaryBubble

Hmm

I think that BINARY is a mistake...because the BATCH is still up and running..I don't know..I'll try that binary in a VM and check what it really does...

BinaryBubble

seems to be a valid batch...he just made an executable binary of it..but it's the same and nothing scary or unwanted processes found after executing...I'd still use the batch..

one hell of a batch ;) not soooo complex...but many, many entries...;) I appreciate his skills and patience making it..

Hi, Just launched script and everything installed fine. copied over some megadrive roms and got the error "d3dx9_43 was not found". Did I miss a step in the install?

@roidz I think the error comes from RetroArch or from one its Libretro cores - see the Libretro forums topic here

@mitu Thanks mate installing direct X 2010 fixed the issue. Maybe Direct X could be included in the Bat file? That way its an all-in-one setup for noobs.

Does this setup allow for N64 Hi Res textures?
