How do i use PJ64 with frontends / HTPCs / Arcade or Cabinet setups?
It’s possible to use Project64 v1.6 with a frontend, but please read through and understand these points carefully before trying (v1.7 should support frontends better, with things like customizable shortcuts!). • The command line sent to Project64 by the frontend must be right. Project64 puts its own quotes around the path and filename, so even for long filenames with spaces you don’t add quotes (this is unlike most emulators, unfortunately). e.g. Project64.exe C:\Some path\some folder\some rom.v64 – OK, PJ64 will load this ROM Project64.exe “C:\Some path\some folder\some rom.v64” – NOT OK, you’ll get a Cannot load “file” error or similar. Your frontend should have options to not use quotes – if it doesn’t, and always sends with quotes, you cannot use that frontend with Project64. Ask the frontend author for support. • Project64 does not support any other command line parameters!
