      I have a romset that i pulled off another image and it has all the wheel art and snaps and other images in their respective folders. Apparently the image works fine on its own but it is an older version of RP and ES/AM. And it does not have a gamelist.xml file included like the other rom folders i pulled from the image. I wrote the post about using the scraper in a terminal to build it for you but i am unsure how to format the command to point to the wheel, snap, and marquee folder to make the xml. Any help with formatting the command to point at the folders and format properly would be greatly appreciated thanks.

          Maybe the gamelist.xml is being stored in another path? I believe with the internal ES scraper, it defaults to storing the gamelists at... .emulationstation/gamelists ? I can't quite remember, but I'm sure there will be references to it here.

          Maybe take a look there.
