Moving scraper data from 3.3 to 4.0 Recalbox
-
you must kill emulatationstation before upload file. via putty in ssh,
/etc/init.d/S31emulationstation stop
prefer orkillall emulationstation

@Acris, that worked like a charm, and all my games look normal except for my last step. How do I get the image files to load? Where do I place them, what must be the folder name etc?
-
Sorry but i think i dont understand the question but images into
/recalbox/share/roms/snes/images
ordownloaded_images
same folder path into gamelist.xml -
I tried like you said, renamed the folder from the original backup scrape from 3.3.0 from atari7800 to images and downloaded_images rebooted each time still wont see the images.
-
Can you post your gamelist.xml file ( atari7800 ) use http://pastebin.com/

errr, just a thing : ES internal scrapper and fullscrape will download images in the downloaded_images folder. So, to keep it simple, better put all images in the downloaded_images folder
