issues with missing "configs" folder on SD Card Retropie 4.2 (latest)

briandamico

hey guys!

how are you doing?!
I am somewhat new to all of this but seem to be doing pretty well.
I am trying to scrape artwork and know how to, but the problem that i seem to be having involves a apparent Configs folder that does not seem to exist on my SD card which is freshly installed with Retropie 4.2 (whatever the latest is)

I recently saw a few videos about scrapping and one gentleman on youtube walks you through how you can view what is being scrapped, in live time, to a folder in the configs folder.

i have some photos but photo bucket is not working at the moment for me to upload them.
if you request them please let me know

thanks so much

How are you trying to view folders on the card?

briandamico

currently on a mac using cyberduck
have successfully dragged ROMS over to be put on the pi a few times now with no problems so i know the connection is correct.
just seems that i am missing stuff, unless i am doing something incorrectly.

@briandamico Which config file are you referring to? What is the path?

briandamico

for instance
if i wanted to go into the SD card and put ROMS in, there is a ROMS folder
from what i have seen, if i want to see art work, there is a configs folder that has an "ALL" folder and then inside that an "emulation station" folder and then inside that an "downloaded images" folder
which will show the artwork being downloaded from scraper

i simply do not have or see a configs folder on the card. never have

@briandamico Hoping by chance you figured it out. I'm running into the same problem.

@pma7779 Hello and welcome to the forum.

Just as a friendly general advice, you should have waited if your own thread yields any solution for you before necroing this ancient thread from a user who didn't post anything since June 2017.

That said, I wish you success with your problem.
