@XEntombmentX said in Error transferring ROMs: Too large for the destination file system: Edit: I should also mention that this error occurs regardless of whether I put the roms in \retropie/roms or \retropie/external/retropie-mount/roms. With a 2TB HDD formatted to FAT32, i think this is going to be the least of your problems in the long run. Might be a better plan to start out right and reformat to ext4.

@YFZdude So I was able to get SSelph's scraper to work, but after a while, it started giving me "hash not found" errors and a "panic: runtime error". I've been searching for solutions for this, but I've found next to no information on the issue and the github page doesn't seem to be active. I'm gonna try Skraper and see if that gives me better results.

Thanks very much! I didn't find that in the docs but I appreciate your link.

@dankcushions Yes!!! That made it. I needed permissions to the /root folder. Both of my games appear correctly. Thanks!

Addendum: You could (re-)compress the uncompressed .cue and .bin pairs (or multiples) to the CHD format with will often shrink them up to around 50% of their former size and put them into just one file you can drop into your roms/psx directory. In my experience, those CHDs will run in 80-90% of the cases. This one-liner will do that with all cue files and their corresponding bin files in the current directory. for i in *.cue; do chdman createcd -i "$i" -o "${i%%.*}.chd"; done Important: This will cut off the filenames after the first dot for the output CHD filenames. Remove one % from "${i%%.*}.chd to cut only the last extension for compatibility with filenames with multiple dots. Beware though that this will only work with single-disk games. For storing multiple disks in one container you'll need the PBP format, which is also supported by Retropie's PSX emulators. That said, be sure to check https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Playstation-1/ to see which emulators support CHD if you want to go that road.

@Brandon12345678 It works now. Thanks for your help.

I was instructed in one of the threads on here to make an alias to the folder on the usb drive containing the roms and just replace the folder in the retropie roms folder with the same named alias. That also works. One thing that I like about that is I could at any time just delete the alias and replace with a folder to return it to reading off the sd card, or you could have part of a folder on the usb and part on the sd (if you don’t mind having two subfolders in ES).

@danyo Got it running. Thanks!

By the way, could you make a proper release. I mean, with the readme, update link and all. Imagine few years later opening the zip files and wonder what it was.

@MartyH1988 First try to follow all these steps (all of them from the top!): https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Wifi/ Then to transfer roms over the network follow these steps: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Transferring-Roms/#samba-shares Make sure you place the roms in the right folders! Read the documentation. For example for the SNES: https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Super-Nintendo-Entertainment-System/#roms If you cant find the network share, perhaps try this way of accessing your pi through SFTP. https://retropie.org.uk/docs/Transferring-Roms/#sftp I've been unable to connect to the network share on my pi. For me it turned out I'm having a problem that windows 10 had certain group policies disabled that blocked the share. The fix was explained here. Though, I didnt like the idea of leaving insecure policies open, so I decided to transfer roms with SFTP. Or alternatively, using an old windows 7 laptop, which could access the share.

@mitu Hi, that's great info thanks. I presume that if it isn't writable, then pastern.com will allow me to change it? The weird thing is that it was working so well, and then for no reason it stopped. Also, it is allowing me to do the first edit (ie try another emulator) and seems to write it to the config file, but then won't let me further edit it. Its the same in every emulator - PS1, SNES etc. Got me confused! Will try what you suggest tho. Thanks again, appreciate it. Glyn

There's also an easy way to transfer your ROMs automatically from an FAT32 or exFAT formatted USB stick. I don't know if NTFS will work with this, too.

@mitu thanks that worked a treat!

yes sorry meant "pi" . It was the password that had been changed but not sure when. Was able to change back through sudo raspi-config. Thanks for you help

ah yes, sorry my fault :)

@mitu omxplayer accelerator was already on so i turned it off to see if it worked but it didn’t

OK, works when i mount with option uid=1000 in autofs.network. Thanks for the hint.

Haha yes, it works :D Simple solution is: First of all - if you have your copy of .sav file (or any other containing your save state), backup it to have an original one in case of losing all saved data. Open rom in Visual Boy Advance, restore you save and create save state using built in saving mechanism. Now close the game and remove in-game save file - file which is a copy of your original state file. Next open game in Visual Boy Advance and load state saved in built it saving mechanism. Go to VBA Options > Emulator > Save Type and change it to SRAM Perform in-game saving. New .sav file will be created in folder when your game was stored. Rename file with extesion for "your_game_name.srm". Copy it to Retropie. After these steps I was able to open my save state from Pocket-Go on my GPICASE :) BTW: There is a possibility that @lostless sugesstion will work to but if not, you need to perfrom above steps. BTW2: Visual Boy Advance saves in-game states files as a .sav file, so you are able to copy you states from VBA to Retroflag also. Thank you guys!
