This is an emulator launcher frontend for Plex Media Center for numerous consoles (see Supported Consoles below)
Note! This will not run on any other products running Plex. Please don't try to get this running on your Roku, SmartTV (unless it's plugged into a Mac and not using the SmartTV functionality!), or any other products that run a Plex front end. It depends on being able to launch an emulator built for Mac OS 10.6 and better, which it certainly can't do on other platforms.
####### Note to users of old game launcher: this will probably nuke your current game launcher instance and completely reset your configuration and will require you to reconfigure after installing or to move your ROMs to the new ROMs directory inside of your Documents folder.
To install, paste the following into your OS X terminal, press enter, and type in your password when prompted:
ruby -e "$(curl -fsSL https://raw.githubusercontent.com/CamHenlin/PlexGameLauncher/master/autoinstall.rb)"There is a new ROMs directory inside of your Documents folder. There is a folder for every console, simply drop your ROMs in to those folders, restart Plex Media Server, reopen Plex Media Center, navigate to Videos, and open Game Launcher. Once in game launcher, and before playing any games, you will need to navigated to the maintenance section and have the Game Launcher search for ROMs, which may take several minutes. After that, you're ready to go!
Please file a ticket or look at existing tickets!
Note that we provide assistance getting PlexGameLauncher to import your games from the standard location, and getting it to launch emulators properly. Configuring the emulators to use your controllers, troubleshooting games, or helping you get this working on your SmartTV is not something we have time for.
