      Hi, I used skyscraper to update my Arcade as I wanted to see the screenshots so I can whittle them down a bit. Ive managed to cache the data and create a new gameslist.xml but the screenshots arent showing. The cache folder for skyscraper screenshots has a load of files in them with letters and numbers as the name (just short of my total number of roms) but they haven't copied across to the downloaded images folder even though the path is there in the gamelist.xml

      Heres the cache

      Heres the downloaoded images folder

      downloadedimages.PNG

      Heres an example of one of the games in the gamelist

      <game>
      	<path>./1944.zip</path>
      	<name>1944: The Loop Master</name>
      	<desc>The game takes place in the heated battles of 1944 during the Second World War as a super ace pilot attempts to defeat an entire army. The game operates and plays like most standard shooters. The objective of every level is to shoot enemy planes, tanks, trains, turrets, battleships, and defeat the boss after each level. Unlike its predecessor, 19XX: The War Against Destiny, the game plays more like the early games in the series.</desc>
      	<image>./downloaded_images/1944-image.png</image>
      	<rating>0.9</rating>
      	<releasedate>20000000T000000</releasedate>
      	<developer>Capcom</developer>
      	<publisher>8ing/Raizing</publisher>
      	<genre>Shoot'em up / Vertical</genre>
      	<players>1-2</players>
      </game>
      

      Thanks

        @aaronc75 Could you provide more information about how you have setup Skyscraper? That path to the media looks strange. It seems you have relative paths turned on, but I don't understand why it says ./downloaded_images as the media path.

        What are the permissions of the ./downloaded_images folder itself?
