Save my SNES save?

dirthurts

Ah, I see! I have connected it to my network, so I should be able to get back in. Sweet! Thanks so much!

@dirthurts Once you see it on the network, you can probably just back up all of your rom folders and move them to a new retropie install, that way you can save some time. All games and saves will be intact if you do that.

I'm going to give that a try when I get back to my network.
When using a browser, is it
"\RETROPIE" to connect?

Capeman

I think so, but i dont use this method and im on mac, some windows users here could probably elaborate how to go through the windows file browser, a search on the forum will probably turn up info on that one.

O.K. Recovered the game and the safe, Woot! But, there is a problem.
I launched the game once, saw that it was there, and shut it down. Now, I'm back to play and it's not showing up. I've tried removing the rom, adding it back, and even removing the save. Mario World isn't showing up at all. What can I do?

Thanks for all the help again.

Ok, so I never figured out why the original isn't showing, but, I manged to get it to show up after renaming it a bit. ??

Capeman

Weird, did you rename the save file also and restore your progress? If so, then problem solved i guess. haha. Probably a gamelist.xml problem, but theres no way to be sure

dirthurts

Yes, I did! I managed to continue my progress with no issue. I'm completely stumped, but hey, I'm gaming so I'm happy. :)

dirthurts

Well, I figured out the root cause.
Scraping, every time, removes the game from being shown. I have to rename it every time. I don't know/understand what's happening here. I don't know if other games are disappearing as well, as I have about 100 of them on there.

@dirthurts hit the start button in ES to bring up the settings and go into UI settings and see if you have Parse Gamelists Only turned on. If so, turn it off. That setting hides any game that is not scraped.

Also if you are having scraping issues, you can go in and delete the gamelist.xml for snes and rescrape that system, that should fix up your errors.
