Title: Wheel Art What variables are there?
Post by: onesojourner on May 11, 2017, 01:50:38 PM: I have been struggling to get all my wheel art working. I have downloaded a few packs. I have specified the wheel art location:

artwork wheel C:\Users\Peter\Downloads\attract-v2.2.1-win64\system art\Sony Playstation 2\wheel\

but from what I can tell this is not where the theme I am using is looking.

From what I can tell the theme is looking at:

C:\Users\yes\Downloads\attract-v2.2.1-win64\scraper\Pcsx2\wheel

I renamed my wheel art to match my rom file exactly (minus the extension .iso vs .png)

What am I missing?

Post by: onesojourner on May 11, 2017, 05:04:01 PM: Alright I got this working but I would still like to know why. My rom file is blah.iso . To get the art to work I had to rename it to blah..png . Why?

example for sega

# Generated by Attract-Mode 1.3.2
#
executable /usr/games/gens
args --fs --quickexit "[romfilename]"
rompath $HOME/genesis/roms/
romext .zip;.md
system Sega Genesis
info_source thegamesdb.net
artwork flyer $HOME/genesis/boxart
artwork marquee
artwork snap $HOME/genesis/videos;$HOME/genesis/snap
artwork wheel

If there is no . before the rom ext it will act up.

Post by: onesojourner on May 12, 2017, 09:22:46 PM: I do not have a . in my extensions. I did look at the romlists and there is a . at the end of every file. Mybe it is just the build that I grabbed.
