Emulator set up
Emulator set up
So I have my sword up and going with rpi-4.4-rpi2_rpi3-wifi_CSO_CM3_20190131-213239.img. What do I need to get my emulators loaded and working? Can I use parts of another setup? I tried to do a search but couldnt find clear answer.

Re: Emulator set up
I'm at a similar stage with my original version of kite's aio.
However, I think the OP might be wanting to know what I am too.. and that is how do you actually get roms onto the device? What's got me confused is that when I put my sd card into my pc to transfer roms over I see no retropie folder?? Nor config, bios etc that I would normally expect to find? Could someone explain why this is?

There's a link in my signature that explains how to add ROMs to the mintyPi. The same premise applies to pretty much any RetroPie powered device though there may be small differences.

Re: Emulator set up
Yeah, that is one way to do it but that also assumes that all devices are on the same network, workgroup, samba is set up, and a few other things. Just easier to give the way that will work for most people.
