AetherSX2 fails to launch game (all front-ends do) #7

Closed MonkoftheFunk closed 2 years ago

MonkoftheFunk commented 2 years ago

So this is an issue with all front-end launchers on android now. It uses the SAF content URI to launch games. 'content://com.android.externalstorage.documents/tree/primary%3AGames%2FPS2/document/primary%3AGames%2FPS2%2FEFMI.chd" These have the best discussions by launchbox dev..

But it might not be possible, https://forums.launchbox-app.com/topic/64553-bootpath-for-aethersx2-and-other-maybe/?do=findComment&comment=401227

AetherSX2 dev doesn't like front-ends and might stop it's support.

It's just something to note. I'll put more details as I find them.

Arcbrowser got around it by using a saf contenuri proxy app to launch emulators and games from https://arcbrowser.com/safproxy But planned to integrate the code in the future

(you can decompile to see how it works, I can help with that if you need) https://maximoff.su/apktool/?lang=en

You can close... My AetherSX2 didn't have the rom path loaded... It works...

Thanks for the information. Currently AetherSX2 works fine with Daijishou on my retroid pocket 2+ somehow. 🤔
