How was the original install done? How was the upgrade done?

Warning to upgraders: If you are upgrading from a version of Attract-Mode that was originally installed from the RetroPie Setup menu do not use these steps, instead upgrade using the RetroPie Setup menu like your original install. Failure to do so will result in two desperate Attract-Mode installations. This specific step is meant for people that have manually installed Attract-Mode from the command line or are installing Attract-Mode for the first time.

P.S. Go to the command line and run this command. It will tell you where the folder is located.
Code: [Select]
sudo find / -iname menu-art

hi guys
thanks for the quick reply
i tried several methods explained in this forum
with floob image and then updated everything like in the tutorial
but i had several errors during installation and menu-art folder kept disappearing
i tried with the retropie 4.4 image and installed all thru retropie setup
but menu-art folder kept disappearing
i installed some roms and artwork and everything worked
so i got the paths right and i selected gamelist, for i have all my gamelists ready for emulation station
i just cant seem to get a menu where i can choose my systems
i use the robospin layout, but i would like to have a startup menu where i can choose the sytems and then the roms
thanks a lot for your help
i am trying everything from scratch using floob image and updating as in the tutorial
will let you know my progress later

Configure-->General-->Startup Mode=Show Displays Menu

Configure-->Displays-->'Displays Menu' Options-->Menu Style/Layout=<layout_you_want>

You can also manually modify the attract.cfg file (while AM is NOT running)
Code: [Select]
general
menu_prompt          Displays Menu
menu_layout          <layout_you_want>
