Embers basic frontend launcher to get you started

  • Now supports all devices. Drop it next to ember.elf like before, or utilize the config to choose your directory
  • Now can scroll, hold the d-pad instead of manually pressing each iteration

Using the config

You only need ember-launcher.cfg if the launcher is NOT in the same folder as ember.elf. If it is, the file is ignored.

  1. Keep ember-launcher.cfg in the same folder as the launcher.
  2. Open it in a text editor and remove the # from the line for your device. Change the folder name if yours isn't EMBER.
  3. Start the launcher. Your games are listed from that folder's games/ as usual.

Common lines:

ember=mmce?:/EMBER/                  MMCE (SD2PSX, MemCard PRO2)
ember=mass:/EMBER/                   USB
ember=mx4sio:/EMBER/                 MX4SIO
ember=ata:/EMBER/                    Internal HDD, exFAT
ember=hdd0:<partition>:pfs:/EMBER/   Internal HDD, APA/PFS

Point it at the folder that holds ember.elf, not at ember.elf itself or a game. If you leave every line commented out, the launcher searches MMCE, USB, exFAT HDD, MX4SIO and memory cards for EMBER/ember.elf on its own. APA/PFS hard disks and network shares always need their line.

This will be most of the updates for now. I will be putting most of my focus into the main application. In the future I may make a nicer official front end application
