I’m sorry to disturb you here, but I just checked out FS-UAE 2.1.26dev and have a question concerning basedir. I have created Config.fs-uae inside FS-UAE’s application directory and FS-UAE.app respects this. But FS-UAE Launcher.app insists on creating the FS-UAE directory inside ~/Documents (I’m on OS X). I tried the hidden config file method (~/.config/fs-uae/fs-uae.conf), but it still creates its directory at ~/Documents when I launch it. Any idea what I’m doing wrong? Am I missing something here?
Thanks a lot!

FS-UAE Launcher does not read Config.fs-uae – this config file is something you can use if you want to create a standalone FS-UAE bundle with a fixed config (for example a “self-contained game”). It sounds like what you want to do is just to generally use another directory as base_dir. Please see the section “Overriding the Default Directories” in http://fengestad.no/fs-uae/paths 🙂
Thanks a lot! I have missed this somehow and was still trying to get it done the old way. I must say that I always prefer applications which are using the default locations like Preferences, so thanks for adding that!
Outstanding support for an outstanding application! 🙂
