Customise a lot more stuff which you can learn about by checking out RetroArch’s documentation.

RETROARCH ON PS VITA DRIVERS

This can be done by going to Settings -> Drivers -> Menu.

RETROARCH ON PS VITA DRIVER

Use a different menu driver such as Ozone which gives you the Nintendo Switch UI.

game front covers) come in packs which include all games for the system so downloading them might take a while

Create your own playlists and introduce thumbnails for your games into the mix ( guide).

Set up Dynamic Wallpapers which change as per the core you’re using ( guide).

However, if you want to customise your experience even more, you can: If you properly followed Part I and Part II, you’ll get a decent looking RetroArch that uses around 200MB of your device’s storage.

RETROARCH ON PS VITA PC

You’ll need to add data files to ux0:/data/retoarch/assets/ozone from a PC installation of RA and make sure you remove ‘cursor_border.png’ or else, it won’t work well If the XMB UI isn’t your thing, you can use Ozone for a Switch-like experience. Part III: Other things you can do with RetroArch

You may need to change the background’s opacity in Settings -> User Interface -> Appearance to make your wallpaper look nicer.

Name the image you want as a background to ‘bg.png’ and copy it to the above directory.

Go to ux0:/data/retroarch/assets/xmb/(theme you chose)/png.

For a custom wallpaper in RetroArch’s menu, you have to follow these steps since Settings -> User Interface -> Appearance -> Background doesn’t seem to detect PNG/JPG files on the Vita.

After doing the above, RetroArch looks pretty decent and using it is much more pleasant!.

You can also change some stuff like the background’s opacity, font colour.

Menu Layout: You can toggle it between handheld and console with the former providing a bigger interface and the latter providing the default UI (I personally go with Console).

Icon Shadows: Navigate to Icon Shadows and toggle it (I personally think RA looks better with shadows on but this is a matter of taste).

Menu Color Theme: Navigate to Menu Color Theme and figure out which style you prefer (I personally prefer Undersea).

Different Menu Icons: Navigate to Menu Icon Theme and see what you prefer (I personally prefer Systematic).

Fonts: Navigate to Menu Font and from here go to ux0:/data/retroarch/assets/glui/font.tff.

The difference between this image and the above image is night-and-day 😉

Now, go to Settings -> User Interface -> Appearance to make RetroArch look great.

You can also change the combination to get the option menu while in-game which I recommend doing if you’re using a Phat PSVita (Vita 1K).

There are some options for touch controls but they don’t seem to work.

If you’re accustomed to having X for confirm and O for back, head over to Settings -> Input -> Swap OK & Cancel Buttons and toggle it.

Now, open RetroArch on your device and start setting it up by following these steps: Part II: Setting up RetroArch on your PSVita

Up till now, you have menu icons and RetroArch looks better but you’re not quite done yet!.

Congrats, you’ve successfully installed RetroArch on your PSVita and can now proceed to setting it up.

RETROARCH ON PS VITA INSTALL

Disconnect the Vita from your PC and install RetroArch’s VPK which you just copied.If you want a custom wallpaper, the instructions are below.Extract ‘RetroArch_data.7z’ and copy the ‘retroarch’ folder into ux0:/data.

Copy RetroArch’s VPK (RetroArch.vpk) to any directory you please.

Open VitaShell and connect your PSVita via USB ( you can do it via FTP but copying the data files might take 20-30 minutes as they’re composed of a lot of small files).

Obviously, your PSVita must be in hacked mode so run HENkaku/h-encore/Trinity before you start unless you use HENkaku Enso.

RETROARCH ON PS VITA DOWNLOAD

I personally think that ‘minimalist’ wallpapers look the bestĪfter you download the above, you can grab your PSVita and do the following in order to install what you just downloaded:

Optional – A wallpaper of your choice to make the interface look even better.

This contains the stuff that will make RetroArch look great including fonts, menu icons, themes, audio/video filters and much more.

If you just install RetroArch’s VPK without the data files and the configuration below, it won’t look pretty
