📥 Manual Installation

Batocera/Knulli

  1. Download latest release : https://github.com/RetroGameSets/RGSX/releases/latest/download/RGSX_full_latest.zip
  2. Extract only PORTS folder in /userdata/roms/
  3. Launch RGSX from the Ports menu

Retrobat/Full Installation on Windows

  1. Download latest release : https://github.com/RetroGameSets/RGSX/releases/latest/download/RGSX_full_latest.zip
  2. Extract all folders in your Retrobat\roms folder
  3. Launch RGSX from system "Windows"

dArkOS / dArkOSRE / dArkOSen (R36S and clones)

Without SSH: download https://raw.githubusercontent.com/RetroGameSets/RGSX/main/tools/install_darkos.sh, copy it to /roms/tools/ and start it from Options in EmulationStation.

Fully manual:

  1. Download latest release : https://github.com/RetroGameSets/RGSX/releases/latest/download/RGSX_full_latest.zip
  2. Copy ports/RGSX to /roms/ports/ (or /roms2/ports/ with a second SD card), and RGSX.png / RGSX.mp4 into ports/images/ and ports/videos/. Merge the folders, never replace them: they also hold your other ports.
  3. dArkOS only lists launchers placed directly in ports/: create /roms/ports/RGSX.sh with printf '#!/bin/bash\nexec "$(dirname "$0")/RGSX/RGSX.sh" "$@"\n' > /roms/ports/RGSX.sh
  4. Restart EmulationStation, then launch RGSX from the Ports menu
