No current support for a proxy. I don't use a proxy so I wouldn't really be able to test it either. If you're willing to edit code and try it yourself, if you get it working I can add it.
My best guess is change these two lines here and here
To include a proxy as show in this example.

Any chance of adding a Remove from favorites option in the Favorite games context menu? I dont see any option to remove favorites. Is there a way that im not seeing besides deleting the pickle?

There's no way to do that in the addon currently. You can manually edit the xml file that was created to remove it, then select 'Refresh Archive' listing from the addon and it will be removed. I can add this to my list of things to do.

C64 is one of the next ones to work on to work with the new VICE core, since that already seems to be much better than MAME

Trying to get IARL working - but am getting an error when launching... Any ideas? Kodi 17.1 on Amazon Fire TV (2nd gen).

Not true! IARL should work on Kodi v16 or later. It just can't play games directly in Kodi with Retroplayer unless you're using v18 or a test build from here. Should still work without a problem using Retroarch and external launching though.
It appears there's been some sort of xml file corruption. I think only one other user has described the same issue, and I have no idea why it happens, but I think this example shows where I can prompt the user to delete the bad file if it does happen - I'll add that to my list of things to update.
In the meantime, I suggest you uninstall the addon, and delete the folder (using ES-File explorer or adbLink or similar):
Code:
Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.program.iarlAlternatively, you can just try deleting the one file it's complaining about:
Code:
Android/data/org.xbmc.kodi/files/.kodi/userdata/addon_data/plugin.program.iarl/dat_files/Atari_7800_ZachMorris.xmland see if that resolves the error.
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - linkinsoldier - 2017-04-19
Sorry, I thought via android there is no possibility via retroplayer (unless you are using kodi 18)

Thanks for the answer! I've modified mentioned lines, and in additional this one - and it works! I think it'll be a good idea to rewrite "old download method" too for using "requests" instead of "urllib" (for downloading without authorization), but I'm not so good at Python (and programming at all), so i can't handle it myself

Good to know it works. I'll see about adding an advanced option for it.

is there anyway to have the game artwork and boxart come up on the homscreen, instead of movies and music?

Thats skin dependant. I know the Estuary Mod can show addon info on the homescreen, since thats what I use.
RE: Internet Archive ROM Launcher - kpop - 2017-04-21
thanks that did the trick, is there anyway to auto populate the artwork in the veiws?, as it seems to find the artwork and populate it as you scroll trough the lists on the fly, would be great to be doing this in the background.

The artwork downloading is all taken care of by Kodi. It should all be cached though, so once downloaded it should be available on your local machine. With really big game lists it can obviously take a long time to get all the images.
