Graphical issues in RetroBat interface

If you own a GPU that is old and not compatible with latest OpenGL versions, it is possible that some rendering effects will not work and glitch or totally crash RetroBat.

To fix this issue, it is possible to force RetroBat interface to use OpenGL 2.1 compatible renderer.

Open the es_settings.cfg file that is found in the emulationstation\.emulationstation folder of your RetroBat installation and insert the following value:

<string name="Renderer" value="OPENGL 2.1" />

Save the file and run RetroBat.
