        @sirkreuab You need to be aware of where spaces are used and NOT used. There is NO space in emulationstation one word. There IS a space between nano and the file path

          @sirkreuab You need to actually run or at least attempt to run something for the log to be populated.

              @sirkreuab Well, that's going to cause confusion. You need to ensure what you are posting here is exactly what you are entering or you are just muddying the waters.

                Right so am I running the rom by opening it in the dreamcast emulator ?
                I go to dreamcast go to project justice and launch the rom and then it goes back to dreamcast after the emulated option screen

                      I do have the bios I have other roms that work f4 does nothing on my keyboard I'm trying to find where my key binds are set in retarch to see why

                      That's why I closed es
                      To get to command prompt
                      The image came with preset key binds

                          @sirkreuab I'll be honest, pre-made images are not supported on this forum. I thought I would try and help but if what I'm telling you to do doesn't work with your image then I can't help you. I am basing my support on the official RetroPie image. If yours is different, I'm sorry but I really can't assist. I don't know how "Rey" has configured this image or controls. Btw, Reicast (Dreamcast Emulator) is not a RetroArch emulator, you won't find that menu. Anyway, good luck, perhaps ask "Rey" for assistance.

                              I only tried the cdi version of Project Justice and that works fine. Try that. If it doesn't, then get a clean version and don't be lazy next time with these custom images.

                                  @sirkreuab I've never used the manager. I use flashfxp (or winscp) to transfer wired or wirelessly.

                                    Hey thanks really winscp on the cdi did the trick guess I'll use that to transfer roms

                                    Also my f4 works fine turns out this wifi keyboard the Logitech k400 plus defaults the f keys to shortcuts and not function keys unless you toggle them with function
                                    Which is hella stupid lol

                                    Everything seems great thanks!
