      Hello!

      System: RpiB+
      Updated to the latest firmware

      Is there a way that I can configure and put a new system here?...

      Optimized-Webp.net-compress-image.jpg

      It's a new system I made for a custom theme. I would like to put some other system like snes or nes or etc....

      Please help, thanks!

        This is the select screen for the default emulator for Arcade roms. These aren't systems.

          Oops sorry my bad. But still, is there anyway I can put another emulator in here? I'm making a new rom folder that's kind of a mixed bag.

            @granderjoree You can use Emulationstation collections to group various ROMs from different systems and have them launched correctly.

                @granderjoree Usually it depends on the theme, most of the themes that support custom collections also support adding artwork. So, what theme are you using ?

                  @mitu I've made a new theme named carbon-modified. It's based on the carbon theme :)

                    @granderjoree Looking at the Carbon theme, I think it's enough to create another folder with the collection name, with the same structure as a system folder.-
                    For instance, copy the snes folder from the theme folder to your collection name folder (i.e. megaman), then modify the art (.svg) files inside the art subfolder with the images you want.
