I would like to make my Playnite install completely portable so that I can use it from a flash drive and have made an emulators folder inside of playnite with subfolders for my emulators. However when I edit the installation path of my emulators to read, for example:
{PlayniteDir}\Emulators\Retroarch
That doesn't work. I get an error that the emulator cannot be found. Is there a way to define emulator exe locations using relative paths?
Edit: I discovered the solution. Instead of using {PlayniteDir} variable, I used a period. So the correct relative path is
.\Emulators\Retroarch
I didn't realize Playnite respects windows relative path arguments as well as it's own internally defined variables. I will leave this thread up for others that may find it useful.
