      I want to put the Epic Noir theme on my retropie, the issue i have is that pi/.emulationstation doesn't show up. I've reinstalled retropie unto the pi to see if that's the issue but it seems not to be.

      Since i'm not very experienced in the terminal, is there anyway to go around this problem?

      Thanks

        The period in the path means it is a hidden folder. Make sure you enable hidden files / folders in the view settings of the program you are using to access the file system.

        From the command line you can use ls -la to see the contents including hidden items in the current directory.

            @chicuelo Yeah, I'd use retropie menus to install themes, but I'm not sure of this setup. I'm not sure if someone bought a pre-loaded card for ROMs, in which case ES may be altered.
