      I'm using midnight commander, and can't seem to find the screenshots of the psx games. I've found them before when using my desktop, but I was looking for other things and didn't keep note of the location.

      I would plug the card into my computer and search, but I'm moving a lot of stuff around to get my room ready for my work at home job. I just accidentally took an AWESOME Mortal Kombat 4 screen shot, and want to set it as the scraped image of the game.

        @nastybuttler322 I can't remember the exact location, but it's usually a subdir in your home directory. Try this command:

        find $HOME -type f -name "NAME OF YOUR PSX ROM*.png"
        

        You can change where do you want to save screenshots using the screenshot_directory option in your retroarch.cfg.

          @meleu not sure if i am the only one with the issue, but i can take screenshots from the rgui, but the hotkey does not work. I have tried on several occasions, even adding the commands in a systems individual config to no avail

              @meleu I did find them, but this command didn't work from within BASH on the pi. It could be because I installed RetroPie onto Raspbian myself, and I think the images were in the opt directory somewhere.
