My stuff:

  • ArchLinux KDE, amdgpu, vulkan, wayland
  • RetroArch installed from official repos
  • cores installed via RetroArch utility

I’m using this command but it results in a graphical glitch when launched from steam:

retroarch -L "path/to/core" "path/to/game"

Possible causes I found:

  • the command may not work if the game is a .cue file
  • loading a game from Steam via RetroArch 64bit can be a problem(?)
  • cores installed with the utility are in “.info” and not in the “.so” extension
spoiler

I haven’t tried Steam Rom Manager as it doesn’t solve my doubt and in any case I’m not sure it can solve the problem even if set correctly.

    retroarch -L "/path/to/core.so" "/path/to/rom" should just work in most cases

    When installing cores on a Linux based system, core files AND core info files are all placed in $RetroArch/cores

    instead of info files being placed in $RetroArch/info like on windows.

    Spoiler: Steam Rom Manager really does just work on a larger scale. If you’re trying to add 20+ games to steam, just use it.

      Hmm…looks like in my cores directory “/home/user/.config/retroarch/cores/” I only have .info files.

      I’ll try to learn more about SRM, EmuDeck was also recommended to me.
