Cannot get Hatari Emulator to show up

[sniper22b]

@mitu thanks for the reply. Roms are copied to roms\atarist.

I can't launch find the roms to launch from so I can access the run command, the emulator isn't showing up in the interface.

[mitu]

The emulator will not show up in the interface, it's the system that should show up (Atari ST). Did you install the emulator first ?

[sniper22b]

@mitu sorry that's exactly what I meant, new to all this. Yes the system is not showing up. I installed it from optional packages, and then hatari.

[mitu]

Did you restart Emulationstation after adding the ROMs ? Are the ROM files with the right file extension (see the Docs) ?

[sniper22b]

@mitu yes. Restarted several times and also using the correct .ST files. I can see everything is there if I add the roms on the PC but no system is showing up in retro pi, and the amount of total games available stays the same.

[mitu]

Do you have a customized es_systems.cfg ? Did you make a copy of the default file and modified it ?

[sniper22b]

@mitu I'm afraid that already surpasses my knowledge. How do I find that out?

[mitu]

If you installed the image yourself, then you don't have a custom file - but you can check if you have one in \\retropie\configs\all\emulationstation.

Perhaps ES is currently set to not scan for new roms?

[sniper22b]

@mitu thanks for this. I'll have a look tomorrow and report back

@Thorr69 thanks for the reply. How would I check to see if this is the case?

Iis the option "Parse Gamelists Only" checked in Emulation Station (ES) under "Main Menu" > "Other Options"? If so, uncheck it.

@mitu the contents of that folder are.

es_input.cfg
es_input.cfg.bak
es_log
es_log.txt.bak
es_settings.cfg
es_systems.cfg
es_temporaryinput.cfg

Thanks.

@Thorr69 thanks. Sadly it wasn't this, it was already set to off.

You seem to have a customized es_systems.cfg - how did you install RetroPie ?
