Description
First and foremost consider this:
- Only RetroArch bugs should be filed here. Not core bugs or game bugs
- This is not a forum or a help section, this is strictly developer oriented
Description
I would like the feature for soft patching be able to select rom. I have alot of patches, it would save alot of space to be able to just select the rom to load a patch. I know you can rename them but then each patch needs it's own copy of them rom.
