Attract Mode running on Solus Budgie
« on: October 16, 2018, 11:42:16 PM »
OK, I've got Attract Mode up and running and can point it to roms, snaps and all artwork within the program itself.  When I've run it on Ubuntu before I could set most of it up by editing the emulator config files.  For some reason I can't find them on Solus.  I've looked everywhere and can only find default-emulator.cfg and that has only a few lines in and not anything to to do with different systems.  Can anyone tell me where Atari 2600.cfg file would be or others that I have set up?  It's not in /usr/share/attract/emulators.  No cfg files are in there.

I'm not using linux.
probably it's a hidden folder (please note point at the beginning):
/usr/share/.attract/
or
/home/your_user/.attract/

Not in either.  Attract is not in the home directory.

As hermine.potter mentions, the "attract" folder is hidden in Linux. It's called ".attract".

Your emulators.cfg files should be located in "~/.attract/emulators" (which is the same as /home/<username>/.attract/emulators).

Just to be clear, these emulator.cfg files need to be created and don't exist by default in most cases.
