Hey dear, another great job, this launcher is great, I love it, still I have to work to see if we can run it from HDD but I have never so much time, just updated RETROLauncher on my Test USB, I have a couple of questions for you:
1-What's the APP HD Project?
2-If I'm correct, PS2 games can be launched through OPL just if installed in the USB, not MX4SIO, right?
Thank you so much

Porting or recreating the program in MMCE is relatively feasible; the biggest challenge is ensuring that the RetroArch port supports MMCE.

Hello SalvoGamer, thank you for commenting and sharing RETROLauncher on your channels.

1 - I'm not sure what you mean by "APP HD project." Be more specific or comment on the section where you saw it so I understand. If you're referring to RETROLauncher, it doesn't support hard drives because I have no way of testing it. However, Enceladus (the core of RETROLauncher) does support them in its latest updates, so if you adapt the code, you can add hard drive support relatively easily.

2 - As you mentioned, I only added support for ISOs on USB. However, it's a similar case to the one I mentioned before. I didn't add hard drive support because I have no way of testing it. However, OPL perfectly supports running games from a hard drive using commands (it's a bit more complex for my limited knowledge). Although some workarounds might allow you to run games from other media, it's not worth it. It's better to use OPL directly (it's more stable, reliable, and more up-to-date).

I recommend you check the RETROLauncher documentation to see the changes. There aren't many major changes, so it's considered a revision rather than an update. I know that, unfortunately, neither the documentation nor the program is available in Italian, so you'll have to use translations (translate the documentation into Spanish, as it's the most reliable).
