Hi, because there are several, often mutually incompatible ES forks, so at the moment Pegasus supports only the last official version.
The docs do not explain how the assets are selected inside the downloaded_images
folder, how would I go about modifying the downloaded_media
directory structure to make it compatible ?
Ah, the docs seem to be a outdated, sorry. The original ES uses the images set in the gamelist XML file, with the image
, video
and marquee
tags, so there's no auto asset detection there.
Ok, fixed the downloaded_images
part in the docs, and it now explicitly mentions that only the official ES is supported. I think this can be closed now.
The issue
EmulationStation Desktop Edition uses different config directory and file names from the default. Thus,
gamelist.xml
files cannot be found without further configuration.For instance, since there is no
es_systems.cfg
but only aes_systems.xml
by default, the installation will not be detected unless you manually create a symlink. Thedownloaded_images
directory is nameddownloaded_media
instead, although this one does not work even when a symlink is created.Games can be launched properly when the command is set in the
gamelist.xml
file.System info
I'm running Nobara (a Fedora-based distro) on a laptop with an AMD CPU and GPU, although this should not matter here.
