!!Experimental libretro player support:

*Get cores from: http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/windows/x86_64/latest/
*or, launch retroarch and use its core updater. Here's the process:
**down down down to Online Updater; press X key on keyboard; press X again to select Core Updater
**scroll to desired core; press X to download
**the core is now in the c:\retroarch\Cores directory

*Use File > Open Advanced.

*Select a libretro core. Store them in the bizhawk/Libretro/Cores directory. Use bit dlls. You'll probably want libwinpthread-1.dll (from retroarch itself) and maybe libgcc_s_dw2-1.dll and others parked alongside it--NOT in the bizhawk main dll directory. 
__BizHawk 1.11.4+ : put libwinpthread-1.dll and any friends in bizhawk's DLL directory. I'm not sure what's gone wrong yet__

**You can also get these dlls (as nightlys) from http://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/windows/x86_64/redist.7z but beware that mixing up a bunch of nightly builds with stable builds can cause problems.

*Load a ROM or load No ROM (e.g. 2048)

*Put the "system" path is bizhawk/Libretro/Cores/System/corefilename_libretro

*''Don't complain about compatibility unless youve tested on retroarch.

Build list comes from [https://buildbot.libretro.com/nightly/windows/x86_64/latest/|this section of LibRetro].%%%
The list is specifically looking at cores that are __functional in__ BizHawk (with notes), not if they're TASable.
