The only thing I can think of is that you enables the "parse gamelists only" option in ES which would make it ignore new roms (unless they have been scraped).

@cyperghost I got drawn here by @Vanpotheosis' post and thought it could be a good idea to add a little something that may be useful to other drive-by readers. :) I didn't know Linux Reader before, it may be a good advice to some of my Windows-using friends.

@cyperghost said in ROM Save Files:

@Vanpotheosis

I guess people want to show you how smart and elite they are in their linux prowess ;-)

First time that someone called my suggestion as linux elite like by using a Windows programm - sounds strange. But I recommend you to get in touch with SSH and the terminal. It offers the valuest way.

That was @Verced, not @Vanpotheosis. ;)

@edmaul69 that's the problem. I did an update and forgot to add the bios, and had the exact same issue with CTR. Just add the bios and you will be racing!

Yea ;) I'd like to see that. I'll have to get me a controller with rumble though, unless I can mod mine somehow.

Please try this. It just links from /home/pi/retropie/roms to your USB drive /media/usb/roms

https://retropie.org.uk/forum/topic/2582/can-my-usb-device-have-data-on-it-already/5

Please create ROMS folder on USB, fill your ROMS according to your systems.

PSX games are located to /media/usb/roms/psx and so on....

PS: The systems are not deleted. On your first attempt you seem to miss the correct configuration and so RetroPie can not find any ROMs and so no EMU-system is displayed. There is really nothing "deleted".

@GetKeyOpenDoor yes, sussed that in the early hours of this morning! Haha! Thanks for your help :)

@Warshi This puzzled me for a long while as well! Where are those games!? I'm glad you mentioned this here.

I dropped in all the bios files from read the forum rules!
for SNES int o/home/pi/RetroPie/BIOS and it still has the same message in the log.

@tehswiftone Ah, gotcha.

@sphirst That's why it isn't recording it then dude. I had a similar issue when editing some metadata on a couple of roms. Came back and my changes had reverted. A clean exit from emulationstation resolved it though.

I've started with full packs. After playing allmost every game on a pc emulator, I've started to transfer the games I liked, If you have a lot of systems in mind you will have a fun weekend.

@Al2017 you also have to copy the bios file to the USB drive.
