### Release overview ### Release overview
v1.2 maintenance release. v1.2 maintenance release. Shortcut support has been added on Unix and macOS which greatly simplifies setup of applications as well as games for platforms like ports, steam, lutris and ps3. A couple of new systems have been added, most notably PICO-8, and RetroPie EmulationStation theme compatibility has been improved. As well the default keyboard quit shortcut has been changed from F4 to the operating system defaults (Alt + F4 on Unix and Windows and Command + Q on macOS). Some bugs were also fixed and some missing graphic assets were added to the default rbsimple-DE theme set.

`%ENABLESHORTCUTS%` - This variable is only available on Unix and macOS and is used to enable shortcuts to games and applications. On Unix these come in the form of .desktop files and ES-DE has a simple parser which essentially extracts the command defined in the Exec key and then executes it. Although some basic file structure checks are performed, the actual command listed with the Exec key is blindly executed. In addition to this the variables %F, %f, %U and %u are removed from the Exec key entry. On macOS shortcuts in the form of .app directories and alias files are executed using the `open -a` command. This makes it possible to launch both shortcuts from emulators and applications like Steam as well as aliases for any applications. However the latter need to be renamed to the .app file extension or it won't work. When a file is matching the .desktop or .app extension respectively, the emulator command defined using the %EMULATOR% variable will be stripped. An %EMULATOR% entry is however still required for the %ENABLESHORTCUTS% variable to work, the intention is to combine shortcuts with the ability to launch shell scripts without having to setup alternative emulators. The %ROM% variable is expanded to the command to execute when using %ENABLESHORTCUTS%, which also means that this variable has to be used, and for example %ROMRAW% will not work. `%ENABLESHORTCUTS%` - This variable is only available on Unix and macOS and is used to enable shortcuts to games and applications.

## Placing games and other resources on network shares ## Placing games and other resources on network shares
Although ES-DE does support placing game ROMs, the `.emulationstation` home directory and the `downloaded_media` directory on network shares, this can lead to serious performance problems in some instances. Especially problematic is the Microsoft SMB protocol as it offers abysmal performance for some disk operations on which ES-DE relies heavily. For small game libraries this can still be acceptable, but for libraries with hundreds or thousands of games the application startup time and overall usage will be very painful or even unusable.

For small game libraries this can still be acceptable, but for libraries with hundreds or thousands of games the application startup time and overall usage will be very painful or even unusable. Similar issues could occur when using file hosting services like Google Drive.
A general recommendation is to place all game files and other data on drives connected directly to the machine where ES-DE is running. Even using low speed technology like USB thumb drives, SD cards etc. is generally fine and leads to acceptable performance in most instances.

## Using emulators in AppImage format on Linux ## Using emulators in AppImage format on Linux
AppImages are a great way to package emulators on Linux as they work across many different distributions, and launching and running them introduces virtually no overhead. There is one small problem though in that there is no standardized directory for storing these files, meaning ES-DE could have issues locating them.

On macOS there are two ways to create shortcuts to applications, the first option is .app folders which can be directly executed by ES-DE and the second option is aliases. To create an alias for an appliction, right click on it in Finder, then select _Make Alias_. Following this move the alias file to the `ports` or `desktop` ROMs directory. As a final step you need to add the .app extension to the file. On macOS there are two ways to create shortcuts to applications, the first option is .app folders which can be directly executed by ES-DE and the second option is aliases. The easiest way to create an alias is to open two Finder windows, one for your Applications folder and one for your ~/ROMs/desktop folder. Then you can simply drag an application over to the desktop folder which will automatically create an alias file. Alternatively you can right click on an application and select _Make Alias_ and then copy the file over. As a final step you need to add the .app extension to the alias file so that ES-DE can find it on startup. Note that this extension will not be visible in Finder, but if you right click on the file and select _Get Info_ you will see the .app extension in the info window.
Here's an example using alias files on macOS: Here's an example using alias files on macOS:

**Enable fallback to additional regions** _(ScreenScraper only)_ **Enable fallback to additional regions** _(ScreenScraper only)_
When a certain game media file does not exist for the selected region, ES-DE automatically performs a fallback to the regions _world_, _USA_, _Japan_, _EU_, and _custom_ in this specific order. If this setting is enabled then an additional fallback is performed to all other country-specific regions. This makes it possible to scrape media for some games only released in specific countries like Brazil or South Korea. It may also make it possible to scrape some game media that has been uploaded to ScreenScraper using the wrong region. The special _ss/ScreenScraper_ region is also enabled via this option, and among other things it contains media for games that never had official releases. This is relevant for instance for OpenBOR and PICO-8 games where 3D boxes and other images may become available. The drawback of this setting is that you may get inaccurate data such as box art in the wrong language or unofficial box art for arcade games, so you may want to experiment with this option on a per-system basis.
