      please could you help me? I know that this could be a very noob question but i really need to edit the config file of retroarch, i want to set diferent control configurations per core, so i want to edit it manually like in the windows version. How could i acces to those files? Please, explain it like im four years old. Thank you so much and excuse my terrible english, my native languaje is spanish 😕

        Hello read wiki page : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/Custom-controller-mapping-for-specific-system-(EN) read wiki recalbox.conf page : https://github.com/recalbox/recalbox-os/wiki/recalbox.conf-(EN) modified recalbox.conf to add custom mapping to core

        ## If you do not want recalboxOS to generate the configuration for the emulator : 
        ;snes.configfile=/path/to/my/configfile.cfg
        
        # ------------ I - EMULATORS CHOICES ----------- #
        ## You can override the global configuration here
        ## Here is the snes example
        ;snes.videomode=CEA 4 HDMI
        ;snes.core=snes9x_next
        ;snes.shaders=/recalbox/share/shaders/shaders_glsl/mysnesshader.gplsp
        ;snes.ratio=16/9
        ;snes.smooth=0
        ;snes.rewind=1
        ;snes.emulator=libretro
        ## If you do not want recalboxOS to generate the configuration for the emulator : 
        ;snes.configfile=/path/to/my/configfile.cfg

              You need to have "configuration save on exit" and "configuration per core" both set to on.
