higan maintains a "game library"
|
||
|
|
containing all the games you've played.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
- In Windows,
|
||
|
|
the default location of
|
||
|
|
the game library is the `Emulation` folder
|
||
|
|
inside your profile folder
|
||
|
|
(To find your profile folder,
|
||
|
|
press `Win+R` to open the Run dialog,
|
||
|
|
then type `%USERPROFILE%` and press Enter).
|
||
|
|
- In Linux,
|
||
|
|
the default location of
|
||
|
|
the game library is the `Emulation` directory
|
||
|
|
inside your home directory.
|
||
|
|
- On all platforms,
|
||
|
|
the game library location can be configured.
|
||
|
|
See [Moving the Game Library](#moving-the-game-library)
|
||
|
|
below.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Inside the library directory there is a subdirectory for each system,
|
||
|
|
and inside each system directory are the game folders
|
||
|
|
for each imported game.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|

Moving the game library
|
||
|
|
-----------------------
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Moving the game library is a little complicated,
|
||
|
|
because there's two parts to it:
|
||
|
|
telling icarus where to put imported games,
|
||
|
|
and telling higan where to find them.
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
1. If necessary,
|
||
|
|
create the folder you want higan to use
|
||
|
|
as its game library.
|
||
|
|
1. Launch icarus,
|
||
|
|
then click the "Settings ..." button in the lower-right,
|
||
|
|
to open the Settings dialog.
|
||
|
|
1. Click the "Change ..." button on the right.
|
||
|
|
A [filesystem browser](#the-filesystem-browser) window will appear,
|
||
|
|
allowing you to choose
|
||
|
|
where imported games will be stored.
|
||
|
|
1. Launch higan,
|
||
|
|
then from the Settings menu,
|
||
|
|
choose "Configuration ..."
|
||
|
|
to open [the Configuration dialog](#the-configuration-dialog).
|
||
|
|
1. Click the Advanced tab
|
||
|
|
then click the "Change ..." button.
|
||
|
|
A [filesystem browser](#the-filesystem-browser) will appear,
|
||
|
|
allowing you to choose the same directory again.

||
