Hey everyone I'm trying to figure out how/if I can add hdpacks to games played on the mesen core of retroarch on my switch. Basically just wondering the correct file path if its possible. I have mesen running and enabled hdpacks in the core options of retroarch but I cant find what folder i need to install the hdpacks in to get it to run them. thanks in advance for any help.

This is how I setup hd packs on my pc should be the same for switch
go to your Retroarch install folder and then \system, the core should have made a folder called HdPacks but if it didn't make one yourself. Then you will want a folder for the game the HD Pack belongs to named after the rom file itself and all the art files go in there.

So for example on my system my MegaMan 1 rom file is called Mega Man (USA) so my folder structure looks like this:And then in this folder all the .png files are located.



Mega man 1 hd pack download

Hope this helps

Thanks for the reply but i tried that and it didn't work. There wasn't even a system folder in the retroacrch folder but I tried creating on and then put the hdpacks folder in there and the game titled folder in that but no luck. I also went retroach/cores/system and installed a hdpacks folder in there with the game titled folder but that also did not work.

path is \retroarch\cores\system\
