Is there a tutorial somewhere explaining how to upgrade plugins? I am presently using all the plugins included in Abz' Masterpiece Pack.
For example, the most recent stable version of Retroarch-Wii is 1.7.5, but I think the one from Abz is on 1.3.x. Is there an easy way to swap out the most recent .dol files and subsequent plugins for Retroarch? Additionally, would this work with standalone emulators like Genplus GX and mGBA?
Thanks!
Go inti wiiflow/plugins, pick the plugin you want to change, ie mgba_wii.ini, open that in a text editor. I prefer Atom and it's free. Change the line to dolFile=sd:/apps/retroarch-wii/mgba_libretro_wii.dol
Make sure that matches your actual path. sd can be usb. If your retroarch folder isn't named "retroarch-wii" I suggest changing it to that because there are some legacy wii apps that expect to see it called that.
I'm running RA 1.7.5 for everything, it works great and is continually updated. For FBA2012 you technically need the 2.97.29 romset, but I haven't been able to find it. The 2.97.35 set seems to work. For MAME2000 you need a 0.37b5 non merged set. Dump the chds and bios files all into the same set.

Couple lingering issues that I haven't resolved by reading through this thread.
GameBoy boxes aren't square, if I alter them it changes the shape of boxes for all systems. I tried some things from earlier in the thread like using a certain series magic number, and trying a different emuflow # but I'm still stuck with stretched rectangle boxes.
Is it possible to use readily available art from emumovies for FBA and MAME? There only seems to be 1/100th of the game case style art made for these systems.
Is there a painless way to have NeoGeo games segregated out from either FBA or MAME roms? Does someone have a .ini that separates these out for a NeoGeo source?
Thanks
