Unable to add games on Windows 8.1

[pantalooons]

I currently have 3 emulators installed. ZSNES, higan and nestopia.

It is able to detect the emulator and the console but does not locate the roms.

below are the log file, the config file, the console file and emulator file.

I have tried running as admin and with W7 compatibility enabled.

Would you post the contents of D:\Ice\ROMs? Or if not the contents just the directory structure is fine

Here are some better examples.

[pantalooons]

As you can see I have tried two different folder structures.

[scottrice]

Ice doesn't handle subdirectories at all, and requires that all of the files inside the ROMs directory for a console be ROMs. What you have in the Nintendo Gameboy directory is correct, but the reason those aren't being added is that the ROMs directory for Gameboy should be D:\Ice\ROMs\Gameboy, not D:\Ice\ROMs\Nintendo Gameboy. If you move the files to there it should work.

[pantalooons]

Ahh!

That did it.

I was going off the console file where it shows

[Nintendo Gameboy] nickname=Gameboy

I didn't realize the folder name needed to match the nickname, that makes sense though.

Thanks!
