Skyscraper doesn't list option for system contained in a symlink
-
Is there anyway to get skyscraper to follow symlinks?
In my
~/RetroPie/roms/
folder, I have replaced mypsx
folder as a symlink to a folder on my hard drive. Emulation station picks up these games, but skyscraper doesn't give me the option to scrape for psx.I am using skyscraper 3.0.1.

How to replicate the problem: Create a symlink for one of your roms folders. -
@Rincewind Are you using the RetroPie script module or the command line ? When did you last update your RetroPie-Setup ?
-
@mitu I am using the script module. I have just updated the RetroPie-Setup script and skyscraper. Same result.

I just checked and it's indeed listing the systems will discard the symbolic links. Thanks for the report, I'll have a fix in the next version of the script module.

Great, thanks

Thanks from future me as well, as I intend to symlink my PSX directory like this in the future too!

It should be fixed now, just need to update the RetroPie-Setup script to get the fixed version.
