Emulators / Location of user created emulator config files

« on: July 05, 2017, 01:40:47 PM »

Where do the config files you create in Attract Mode emulator config screen get stored? I've looked at /home/pi/.attract/emulators. Although there are emu config files in there(probably preinstalled on the image I downloaded) , any new emulator you might add does not appear in
that folder. I've just added the pcengine emu  with success but the config file doesn't get stored in that directory. Akafox has been helping with a related problem regarding the Sega CD emu which doesn't work. Not only that but  every I time I delete it and reinstall it .....it creates another  system wheel art....so far I have 4 SEGA CD entries on the system wheel..could someone tell me where these files are stored. Obviously when I delete the emu ,some part of the config remains...thus the 4 system wheel entries. FYI....the image can be found on ETA PRIME site..."Kevins 64g Attract mode image."...also my roms and art are on a external usb drive.

Emulators / Trouble addingSega CD and Sega 32x emulators

« on: July 03, 2017, 06:15:59 PM »

I've been trying to add these 2 emulators with no success. The config is easy enough to setup but neither emulator works. For example sega 32x doesn't even see my roms when trying to generate a romlist. I've checked the paths and file extensions and they're correct.
Sega cd is really a weird one...On first try I set up the config and created a romlist. When trying to launch a game it boots me back into attrack mode with an error code " can't get error 500"...at least that's what I think it said...it displays only for a second..so I decided to delete the emulator and start over only to get the same results with one weird difference...when I create the romlist and go back out to the system wheel I now have two Sega CDs ...one with the roms and one without....either way I still can't get the games to boot....any suggestions??

General / PSX WHEEL AND SNAP ART

« on: July 02, 2017, 04:20:39 PM »

As you know psx games have 2 or more files for each game. When creating a rom list it picks up all of the files (track,cue,bin) and makes for a lot of empty snap and wheel slots. How do I remedy this problem? I tried making a favorite list but that didn't work. I still have lots of empty slots on the wheel and snaps....

General / Matching rom names with artwork

« on: June 30, 2017, 08:04:14 PM »

Does anyone know of a program that can match the roms with the artwork in a batch instead of editing one at a time? I've tried Fuzzy Rename and Fat Match. Neither of these worked.

General / Setting up lr-mame 2003

« on: June 28, 2017, 09:38:03 PM »

I'm trying to add lr-mame2003 (mame-libretro)to AM.I get most games working but games that use audio samples such as Donkey Kong or Zaxxon won't play the audio samples. The games work fine in ES but in AM the audio samples aren't working.I'm stumped! Any ideas anyone?

General / Rom path for external usb

« on: June 27, 2017, 09:17:23 PM »

I'm using an external USB for my roms.Emulationstation has no problem seeing the external drive.Apparently AM needs to be directed at the USB drive.It's currently aimed at the sd card.../home/pi/retropie/roms/emulator. It seems easy enough to redirect AM but what is the correct path? I've tried multiple combinations but nothing seems to work.
