Box Art and stella.pro file

Stephen Illingworth edited this page Feb 25, 2024 · 1 revision

Gopher2600 supports both the stella.pro file and libretro style box art.

Both of these are used by the ROM selector to improve the ROM selecting experience.

ROM Select

stella.pro

To enable support for stella.pro download the file from the Stella project and copy to the Gopher2600 configuration directory.

Important: Make sure you download the raw text. Use this link if you're not sure how to do that.

Box Art

To enable the use of box art download the Named_Boxarts directory from the libretro-thumbnails project. Maybe the easiest way of doing that is to download a zip file of that project and the discard everything except the Named_Boxarts directory.

Once you have the Named_Boxarts directory, copy it to your Gopher2600 configuration directory.
