specify an emulator in runcommand.sh?

[bmos]

What I’m trying to do is have all my FDS games run via nestopia core. Rather than change each game to use it, is there a way to specify a core to use in the run command for a given file extension?

<system>
<name>fds</name>
<fullname>Famicom Disk System</fullname>
<path>~/RetroPie/roms/fds</path>
<extension>.FDS .zip .ZIP .fds</extension>
<command>/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ nes %ROM%</command>
<platform>fds</platform>
<theme>fds</theme>
</system>

where ‘nes’ would be something like fds or something.

duplicate /opt/retropie/configs/all/nes to another folder /opt/retropie/configs/all/fds – and edit the emulators.cfg to include just that one emulator. then in the runcommand line in es_sytems.cfg, use “/opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ fds %ROM%”

*edit*
i assume you meant
/opt/retropie/configs/nes
