Thanks. I just don't remember it looking that bad. I like to centralize everything into Retroarch that way I don't have to mess with so many different emus. I only wish the Vice libretto core for Retroarch had an easy way to swap disks on muti-disk games. Right now you have to write a "flipfile" then deal with command lines. It's a mess and not worth it at all. The standalone version of WinVice is more recent and makes it easier. Joystick auto-config on Retroarch for Vice is also really unreliable, something they usually get right.
