Batocera pack NOTE:
Requirements: minimum RGS Batocera v42 with latest PiXN updates (check discord how to update), a modern GPU or iGPU with 4GB vram, sadly we don't recommend Intel iGPU. (check discord how to update)

Q: What is Arcade PC?
A: Arcade PC games are modern arcade games not playable with MAME, such as the BlazBlue series.

Q: Is this Teknoparrot?
A: Not quite. Teknoparrot is only a game launcher, and unfortunately, it does not work on Batocera/Linux.

Q: How does it work?
A: Launching Arcade PC games in Batocera is achieved using JConfig through Wine.

Q: What are JConfig and Wine?
A: JConfig is not just a program for launching recent arcade games; it includes a wide collection of launchers, tools, emulators, and patched executables for a better "arcade at home" experience. Wine enables Windows games/applications to run on Linux (Batocera).

Q: Does this sound complicated? Should we be worried?
A1: No need to worry! We've packaged the games to launch on most systems (Intel i5 / AMD Zen1).

Q: Is there anything else we need to know?
A: Yes, a few minor details:

- Most lightgun games require an actual lightgun (e.g., Sinden).
- Some lightgun games can be played with a mouse (a mouse indicator icon is present in the wheel).
- All games use a custom Wine GE runner and manual pad2key made by SPiRiT! (That is why this pack only works on RGS Batocera update)
- A lot of Boxart is fictional as these games does not have boxart, missing boxart is custom created by G-spawn! ty ty!

Teknoparrot on RetroBat will auto configure controllers more info: https://wiki.retrobat.org/systems-and-emulators/supported-game-systems/arcade/teknoparrot

If you want to setup your own controller, lightgun or steering wheel from Teknoparrot UI, you must disable autoconfigure controllers in RetroBat menu first RetroBat > Advanced Emualtor settings > autoconfigure controllers to OFF.

To setup your APM3ID you have to go into RetroBat > Advanced Emualtor settings > User Interface and put in your profile name.

All games have been tested and working to run on a i5 9th gen, Nvidia GTX 1050, RTX 3050.

The Teknoparrot launcher has been setup on R: but also tested on other drives, so far everything is portable.

When extracting or launching games your AV will trigger (Windows Defender), this almost always happens with teknoparrot games because there are patched .exe files. This is a false positive and you should exclude the RetroBat directory and Teknoparrot game files (including where you download it).

Team Pixel Nostalgia can't support Teknoparrot, this has its own community with patches for GPU's etc.
