What is it?RoM-Jacket creates a native Windows™ (batch-script) library-layer for retro-emulation.==Overview==It skeletonKey is both a comprehensive utility for any ROM library launcher and is the ONLY ROM-library management backend configuration tool which enables indipendent per-game settings.
What do I need this for?RoM-Jacket can automatically setup HTPC frontends, emulators and joysticks.==Features==
The goal of this project is to unify the interface for emulators and systems in order to maintain the integrity of ROM titles as they exist in any active HTPC gaming-library.
What else can it do? * A comprehensive, easy to use & compact GUI * Drag & Drop ROMs to launch & create playlists. * Leverages internet ROM repositories for Netplay automationDownload torrents, magnets, urls and automatically identify, extract * Global and catalog granular control over libraires of ROMs and BIOS files.Mirror your saves and save * Deploy a gaming environment to a portable device such as a flash-states into a cloud (Dropbox/GDrive/OneDrive)drive. * Convert ROMs into portable executablesto a Windows executable * Download, install & setup HTPC frontends, emulators and joystick mapping programs.
How does it work?
Each ROM is grouped with associated assets inside a Jacket (folder). A batch-script launcher (.bat) and configuration files are then created for each ROM.
The result is a library in which titles are highly portable, self-contained, execuatble by Windows™ itself and and easily integrated into any HTPC gaming frontend.
But, why?
Because HTPC frontends typically match separated assets by name and ROM sets use a global emulator-configuration file, 2 significant problems often arise:
Changes made to an emulator's settings for one ROM affect all other ROMs which use it.==References==The source of assets and ROMs are arranged and named uniquely from ROM to content to emulator to frontend.{{reflist}}
