All ROMS recognised by EMUSTATION but not my Amiga Roms?

[mikebowyer]

Hi Guys,

Total newbie, put together my first pi yesterday and set it up, works great but I was a massive Amiga fan back in the day and the only Roms that don't seem to have copied over or show up in Emulation Station are my Amiga adf files which is really frustrating, Ive done a search on the forum before this but can't find anything, any help would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers

Mike

Also the emulator will load up but when I try to navigate the cursor to select disks the arrow won't move, my controller works on all other emulators

This is intentional and somewhat unique to the Amiga system in RetroPie. Software disks are meant to be loaded from the emulator gui rather than Emulation Station. However, it is actually possible to add these games manually, as detailed here.

While the Amiga emulators do have joystick support for the actual games during play, It is often necessary to use a mouse and keyboard to launch the games from the emulated Amiga and it is always necessary to use a mouse and keyboard to launch the emulated Amiga environment from the emulator gui.

@mediamogul awesome thanks man, Ive tried this now and it does find my disks, i can control the screen by using a keyboard and add the disks to the DF0 etc but when I go to restart (which after watching a couple of youtube videos seems to be how you load them) it just says kickstart not found??

Have you added your kickstart rom? Make sure you read this all the way through if you haven't already.
