## YunoHost specific features
|
|
|
|
### Use Shared ROMs library
|
|
|
|
Although you can upload a ROM at runtime, retroarch may have access to the ROMs you already have on your server:
|
|
|
|
* Games are located in `/opt/yunohost/retroarch/assets/cores`. A symbolic link is created to this folder in `/home/yunohost.multimedia/share/Games`, so that you can place your games from here
|
|
* cores have to be indexed to work : script `/opt/yunohost/retroarch/indexer.sh` run every 5 minutes to index all games in `opt/yunohost/retroarch/assets/cores`
|
|
|
|
|
|
#### Supported architectures
|
|
|
|
* x86-64b - [](https://ci-apps.yunohost.org/ci/apps/retroarch/)
|
|
* ARMv8-A - [](https://ci-apps-arm.yunohost.org/ci/apps/retroarch/)
|
|
|
|
## Limitations
|
|
|
|
* cannot save game, in fact, cannot write at all... so configuration is lost each time you start again
|
|
* no user management
|
|
* some core are listed but not implemented : they do not work, the issue is from the upstream app.
