== RoM-Jacket ==
ßv0.99 "bluto"
For Windows XP,Vista, 7, 8x & Linux via WINE
== What is it? ==
RoM-Jacket creates a native Windows™ (batch-script) library-layer for retro-emulation.
It is a comprehensive utility for any ROM library and is the ONLY ROM-library management tool which enables indipendent per-game settings.
== What do I need this for? ==
RoM-Jacket can automatically setup HTPC frontends, emulators and joysticks.
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?==
Download torrents, magnets, urls and automatically identify, extract and catalog ROMs and BIOS files
Mirror your saves and save-states into a cloud (Dropbox/GDrive/OneDrive)
Convert ROMs into portable executables
== 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:
RoM-Jacket solves these problems. Assets remain with the jacket so that each ROM looks the same in any frontend and plays the same, every time.
