      Well the code that I was referencing is this,

      	AddStringC("Dir:Roms", GUI.RomDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\Roms", "directory where the Open ROM dialog will start");
      	AddStringC("Dir:Screenshots", GUI.ScreensDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\Screenshots", "directory where screenshots will be saved");
      	AddStringC("Dir:Movies", GUI.MovieDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\Movies", "the default directory for recorded movie (.smv) files");
      	AddStringC("Dir:SPCs", GUI.SPCDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\SPCs", "directory where SPCs will be saved");
      	AddStringC("Dir:Savestates", GUI.FreezeFileDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\Saves", "directory where savestates will be created and loaded from");
      	AddStringC("Dir:SRAM", GUI.SRAMFileDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\Saves", "directory where battery saves will be created and loaded from");
      	AddStringC("Dir:Cheats", GUI.CheatDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\Cheats", "directory in which cheats (.cht files) will be looked for");
      	AddStringC("Dir:Patches", GUI.PatchDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\Patches", "directory in which ROM patches (.ips/.bps/.ups files) will be looked for");
      	AddStringC("Dir:Bios", GUI.BiosDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\BIOS", "directory where BIOS files (such as \"BS-X.bios\") will be located");
      AddStringC("Dir:SatData", GUI.SatDir, _MAX_PATH, ".\\SatData", "directory where Satellaview Signal Data files will be located")
      

      Of course this isn't my area of expertise, but judging by that its expecting it to be in the same directory as your roms and saves directories. The thing is all those files are placed in the roms directory on retropie. Have you tried having them lose in the roms folder? I need to find these signal data and I can try things on my end.

        I have try:
        /home/pi/Retropie/Satdata
        /roms/snes/
        /roms/snes/SatData
        /roms/SatData
        /roms/
        /bios/
        /bios/SatData
        /config/snes/
        /config/snes/SatData

        here are some data
        https://drive.google.com/open?id=1PgCy6em1evtshAn211CptlILwV5ElfJY

        if the upload will work, you will find the city of bios with snow

          @hermit Please don't post copyrighted material - this includes BIOS files for emulators. Thank you.

            they were files generated with SatellaWave, the bios was not present

              @hermit OK, then I guess it's fine. The names though look terribly similar to the ones of the BS bios files, that's why I removed the link - thinking they were BIOS files.

                  the update has taken place and it seems to work (so they say on the official forum of Libretro)
                  but it doesn't work for me.
                  the files must end up in the roms folder (\roms\snes)
                  could anyone try? thank you

                    @hermit Did you update from source the lr-snes9x package ?

                        @hermit I can give it a try - do you have a source for the transmission data produced by SatellaWave ?

                            @hermit I was asking if there's a program that produces those files, or the source site for them. I know you posted the files on Gdrive,

                              Seems to work though, by copying the SatellaWave data into roms/snes, alongside the game ROM

                                  I don't have any settings at all - it's just a fresh installed image with just lr-snes9x installed. Start the game with verbose logging enabled, then post the /dev/shm/runcommand.log to pastebin.com so we can take a look.

                                  EDIT: just to make sure, I only noticed the town looks different, didn't try the whole menu selection from the video you posted at the beginning.

                                        The log seems ok, there's no obvious mis-configuration at stake. I'm a bit confused about what the test should show - do you also get the winter town in the intro or not ?

                                          I have a raspberry 3b "normal", you?

                                            @hermit Nothing fancy, just a normal 3B model. Are you sure you updated to the latest lr-snes9x version ?
