      Hi,

      I have a recalbox and retroarch on my android. I'd like to sync the save states and save files between them. Now the problem is, that retroarch stores all the save file in a folder called savefiles and all the savestates in a folder called savestates. Recalbox on the other hand stores save files and save states for each system together in a folder.

      Does anyone have an idea how I could make the folder structures match each other?

        Well, several solutions :

        1. change retroarch save folder for every emulator. Boring, but can be done
        2. do it the file system way : change the system save folder name to a symlink pointing to a unique directory
        3. the dirty way : sync all in all folders. THat way you're sure to have them all, despite it's messy
