Search directory

Allows you to specify the directory in which the emulator should scan for ROMs. Currently, only one directory can be specified but the emulator will scan that folder recursively (meaning that folders inside that folder will also be scanned).

Icon filtering

The filter to be applied to ROM icons when displayed in the ROM listing screen and home screen ROM shortcuts. The available options are:

  • None (Pixelated): applies no filtering to the ROM icons. This leaves the icons unmodified and given the low resolution of those icons, they will have a pixelated appearance
  • Linear (Smooth): applies bilinear filtering to the ROM icons. This leaves a smoothed out icon that is not as pixelated

Max. ROM cache size

Allows you to configure the maximum amount of storage that extracted ROMs can occupy. If you try to load a compressed ROM but there's not enough space to fit in the cache, the least unused extracted ROMs will be deleted until there is enough space to extract the new one. If the ROM you are trying to load is larger than the max. cache size, then all other extracted ROMs will be deleted and you will still be able to play that ROM, but the cache will be larger than the maximum specified size.

Clear extracted ROM cache

Allows you to delete files extracted from compressed ROMs. Extracted ROMs allow the game to load faster but if you have a lot of different compressed ROMs, it can take a lot of storage. In this option, you can see the space occupied by those extracted files and if you click it, all extracted files will be deleted.
