How to mess with Runcommand

_by @RickDangerous_

Each time you load a Game there is an option to open what is called

the Runcommand Launch Menu.

The Runcommand Launch Menu

1. This is accessed by pressing any button on a controller or kebyoard.

I usually use A or X depending on my controller.

Below is the launch screen for Arcade.

2. After pressing a button / key whilst loading a game you will be shown

a menu like below depending on the system you choose.

System Menu

3. You are given several menu options of which four will be covered now:

Which ever emulator we choose with this option will be the main default emulator for the whole system.

We can choose which emulator we want for the current game we are loading. The change will get saved to the emulators.cfg.

This will allow you to set a custom resolution for the emulator.

This change will get saved in videomodes.cfg

This will allow you to set a custom resolution for the current game we are loading. This change will get saved in videomodes.cfg

Disable the Launch Menu

The run command configuration is useful to disable the launch menu. You might wan’t to do this to stop accidentally changing an emulator or video setting which might stop a game from launching. This is very useful if you have kids.

1. Navigate to the options screen.

2. Choose Run Command Configuration

3. Change Launch Menu to Current Disabled
