      Hello. I have found the files for Streets of Rage Remake, Beats of Rage, and WCW Feel The Bang (all for Windows 10). I am thinking of adding them to the ports section of the RetroBat EmulationStation front-end. Is there any guide I can use to make additions to the systems.cfg so that each of these show up within the ports menu? If anyone has an idea, I will make adjustments according to the folder structure I am using. Thank you for your input.

        I figured out how to launch all three games properly. Getting the WCW Feel The Bang game working is a bit of a task in itself. I would suggest watching a YouTube video describing how to input the correct Hex values, using the configuration menus, and hitting the correct buttons on a joypad for the music files to play correctly.

        I had to open my es_systems.cfg file to add a few items as well. In the <path> section, make sure your folder structure follows what you see on the top of the screen in the explorer window. The <extension> section should have .exe .EXE listed within the html brackets (<extension>.exe .EXE</extension>). The <command> section should be written as <command>"%ROM_RAW%"</command>. The <platform> section should be written as <platform>ports</platform>. The <theme> section should also be written as <theme>ports</theme>. Make sure that each of the sections has no errors, or use an xml editor to point out any mistakes.

          @Striderx99 hi bro. How did you go about adding WCW here comes the bang? The files I find are for project 64 with a full conversion kit but can't seem to find the basic rom. Any help or guide you can give me would be most helpful. Thanks
