Running Dolphin With .Bat files possible? - darkev - 01-14-2011
I was wondering if there is any chance we could run off games using a .bat instead of entering the dolphin executable and running them from there, the reason i ask this is becuase several builds run better with diferent games
for example: build r6515 with zelda TP runs perfect, but zelda with recent builds doesn't run so good (hyrule fields). Robotech Battlecry can't start because i use x64 dolphin but it runs if i use a x32 dolphin... get the point?
i recently downloaded Naruto Shippuden Gekitou Ninja Taisen (a preconfigured dolphin game) and noticed 2 .exe files the dolphin.exe and naruto.exe if i start with naruto.exe the game automatically loads itself without going into dolphin and selecting the game you want to play.
And i like to use my windows 7 game explorer for my game collection, and just have to add the .bat file to the game explorer and edit the box art with vgee.
So is this possible? and if it is, does anyone know the commands?

/b, --batch Exit Dolphin with emulator
/V, --video_plugin=<str> Specify a video plugin
/A, --audio_plugin=<str> Specify an audio plugin
Unexpected characters following option 'l'.
So a batch (in dolphin folder next to dolphin.exe) would look like that:
start /realtime dolphin.exe "--exec=E:\WiiGames\Mario Kart.iso" --batch
/realtime sets the cpu priority. this may speed it up.
--exec starts the is iso specified.
--batch makes dolphin window close on stopping the emulation
the " around exec are needed if you have spaces in the path or iso name.
Make a shortcut to the batch and give it an icon.
win.

I wonder what this "naruto.exe" had besides the command to run Dolphin.
