Sharp X68000 emulator and XDF

[Texemosis]

hello, there's a certain game i'd like to play on the Sharp X68000 emulator but this game appears to only be in XDF and according to the Retropie emulator website, XDF isn't listed as a supported file format. By any chance, is there a work around to this?

Even though unlisted, xdf seems to be supported by the libretro px68k core. You can add the new extension as explained here:

• create the /opt/retropie/configs/all/platforms.cfg file (or, via file shares, at \\retropie\configs\all
• add to the file:

x68000_exts=".dim .hdf .hdm .2hd .d88 .m3u .xdf"

• reinstall the lr-px68k libretro core.

Copy the .xdf floppy image to the system's folder and restart EmulationStation.

EDIT: as an alternative, if the game has multiple floppies, you can create a playlist in .m3u format and load that instead.
