It does not ask me if I want to use retroplayer and the options in RCB don't look anything like the screen shot I see here (I have no "Use RetroPlayer" option in RCB). I have 2.0.11 installed. Also when I add the path in file manager OR as a file path under Games/files, if I restart XBMC, I have to add the path again. It does not remain.

For those like me waiting for retroplayer I wrote a script that :
installs retroarch/libretro and configures rcb with a selection (you will be prompted) of consoles.
Currently supported : NES, SNES, SMS, Genesis, PS1

https://www.dropbox.com/s/qdsba7223sm8aam/retrohelper.sh

How to use :
1. connect a keyboard to your xbmc (if not already)
2. press alt+ctrl+F1
(Or connect over ssh)
3. Login
4. Execute next lines :

Code:

wget https://www.dropbox.com/s/qdsba7223sm8aam/retrohelper.sh
chmod +x retrohelper.sh
./retrohelper

Follow the onscreen instructions.
When done Press ctrl+alt+F7 to return to xbmc.

So it won't work on windows.
You can make a script that does the same for windows tho but I wont as :
1. I currently have no interest in running htpc's on windows.
2. I'm not done with the script. It needs some refinement, I need to add configuration of controllers. And there are other scripts in the pipeline.
3. I barely have time for point 2

PS : if ur on windows try "hyperspin" you could save yourself some work.

Eh... Thanks man, but executor addon is long gone (since like 2010) I think, and advanced launcher is also marked as broken. Doesn't seem to be any launcher addons that work with xbmc anymore. I wish I had checked that before setting up hyperspin though. lol It's no big deal... I am not a "gamer" anyway. I just like to mess with XBMC when I am bored.

Advanced Launcher is marked as broken on XBMC repository, it doesn't mean that this addon is not working on XBMC... It's just mean that it is marked as broken and so you cannot install it. If you want the last working version of Advanced Launcher, install and use the Angelscry's repository : http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?tid=85724
Here is the installation guide : http://www.gwenael.org/forum/viewtopic.php?pid=3#p3

• Close XBMC
  
• Download the last version of Advanced Launcher from here : http://www.gwenael.org/Repository%20Archives/
  
• Decompress the .zip file.
  
• Copy/paste the plugin.program.advanced.launcher into the xbmc/addons directory.
  
• Restart XBMC

I'm running a test build from here. OpenELEC 3.2.0 General x86_64 (upgraded to 3.10), and XBMC 13.0-alpha7, and Aeon MQ5. When I click to lauch games it's linked to RCB and suggests to create a config file, should it not at this point detect RP and automate the emulator script configuration?
