Sega Naomi with BeetleDC

ReadyPlayaWon

Emulationstation Setting > Other Settings > Parse Gamelists Only > On (then restart Emulationstation and the folder is gone from the gamelist)

and i think if the .chd folder did get added to the gamelist.xml which is located

/opt/retropie/configs/all/emulationstation/gamelists/naomi

note: the default folder for naomi and atmosiwave games is the dreamcast folder. I manually created the naomi and atomiswave systems as per the Retropie Wiki Instructions.

i just deleted the .chd folder from the gamelist.xml and kept the reference to the .zip .... at least i think i did that ? was a while ago, can't quite remember.

@ReadyPlayaWon
Thanks
I don't like the ParseGamelistsOnly option because It hide the "unsrcaped" games
I'll try to figure out something like I did for Daphne emulator

I already set separated systems for Atomiswave and Naomi . I did the same thing than you .

It works.

i have scraped every single game on my system (all have metadata, images and videos) ... so it's not an issue for me. Oh well, i don't know of any other way, sorry.

My problems are with Lr-Mess systems like Gamate , FM Town Marty, etc. It's not a walk in the park to scrape them . I edited my gamelist manually with pictures from the net, my own videos, emumovie packages, hyperspin datas , etc.

I fixed It! My problems was my extension list in platforms.cfg and es_systems.cfg files. I had written .chd, so that's why I saw the folders. Now I use:

Platforms.cfg

naomi_exts=".7z .zip"
naomi_fullname="Sega Naomi"

es_systems.cfg

<system>
   <name> naomi </name>
   <fullname> Sega Naomi </fullname>
   <path> / home / pi / RetroPie / roms / naomi </path>
   <extension> .7z .zip </extension>
   <command> /opt/retropie/supplementary/runcommand/runcommand.sh 0 _SYS_ naomi% ROM% </command>
   <platform> naomi </platform>
   <theme> naomi </theme>
 </system>

and evrerythings work perfecly.....

By the way, Sega Naomi with Atomiswave are one of the coolest thing on Retropie!! It's absolutely amazing. I just can't believe I never installed It before today. Shame on me!

And the cool thing, there is a number of them that got a release on the Dreamcast (little brother to Naomi) as well ... a few games i had issues with, the Dreamcast version plays great with Redream .. or lr-flycast if there's any probs,

Thanks for the es_system.cfg advice .. works a treat :)

Hey out of curiosity, is there a specific mame romset that has the correct Naomi ROMs?
