      Hi all,

      I'm a complete novice, so appreciate any dumbed down help or advice.

      I have a preloaded xu4 that I installed in my modded arcade 1up cabinet. There are a couple of games that don't work in mame that I want to find working roms for (moonwalker and open ice challenge).

      Now, I tried to find the "show ip" address line in retropie on the carrousel, but I only have a few options to chose from. Show ip not being one of them alt text

      How can I easily add roms or find my ip so I can easily add via my laptop and network... Or that's how I understand it?

      Or should I just buy a sd card reader for my laptop, pull it from the xu4 and pop it into the laptop and do it that way. I just thought it would be way easier and convenient doing via the network.

      Appreciate any help 👍🏻

          We don't support 3rd party images, start with a clean Ubuntu image and install RetroPie over it, as explained in the docs.

          That's covered in the docs also. Unless your laptop is running Linux, a sdcard with RetroPie cannot be read from your laptop, so you should use the network to transfer ROMs (SSH or File shares, as explained in the page mentioned previously).
