scummvm save states save file

    Pi Model or other hardware: 3
    Power Supply used: Canakit 5V
    RetroPie Version Used (eg 3.6, 3.8.1, 4.1 - do not write latest): 4.2
    Built From: Pre-made Retropie SD Image (4.1)
    USB Devices connected: 128 GB USB Sandisk, DS4 controller, Generic Airmouse
    Controller used: DS4
    Emulator: ScummVM

    I think the default path is something like /opt/retropie/configs/ScummVM/saves, but I was curious if it was possible to somehow move the game saves/save states to the ./roms/ScummVM/saves folder as opposed to whatever the correct path is by default.

    Duhhhhhh... Solution is here.

    Can't delete this, but sorry for wasting server space...

    In case anyone searches this in the future...

    1. Go into ScummVM and navigate to Options >> Paths and change the path location to whatever you'd like. For me it was ./roms/ScummVM/saves/.
    2. To recover your previous saves, navigate to /opt/configs/retropie/ScummVM/saves/ with a program like Filezilla and copy them to the desktop then move them to your USB for example. Another option would be to, in the command line, use the mv -i /opt/retropie/configs/ScummVM/saves ./roms/ScummVM/saves/ for example.
