==Console Options==

At startup, the mupen64plus program will look for a user configuration file called 'mupen64plus.cfg' (see [[FileLocations]] for more informations).

If this file does not exist, it will be created and default settings will be written. If desired, an alternate config directory can be specified using the --configdir commandline option.

Run 'mupen64plus --help' for a complete list of commandline options:
