System-Specific Guides

System-specific setup guides for systems that need extra configuration

Most systems in Provenance work out of the box — import a ROM and play. However, some systems have extra configuration options, additional file requirements, or unique features worth knowing about.

  • Nintendo 64 — Custom texture packs, Mupen64Plus settings

  • Nintendo 3DS — emuThreeDS native core, system files, performance tips

  • GameCube & Wii — Dolphin native core, system folder, HD textures


RetroArch Core Folder Structure

Many systems in Provenance use RetroArch-based cores. These cores support additional files and configuration through RetroArch's standard folder structure:

  • System files — BIOS, firmware, and other required files

  • Cheats.cht cheat code files

  • Shader presets — Custom visual filter configurations

  • Core overrides — Per-core and per-game settings

Files placed in the RetroArch system directories are automatically available to the corresponding cores. Access these folders via the Web Server or Files app.
