Expand No because they shouldn't of been downloaded originally that's why you got the 404 error. Also you can scan for media without re-importing and there is a option to only download missing artwork.
wemr97dl Posted March 13, 2017 Author Posted March 13, 2017 Ok So that would be select all and download metadata and media from the tools menu?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

wemr97dl Posted March 13, 2017 Author Posted March 13, 2017 Thanks, now trying Sega Saturn, but i dont think my roms have cue sheets
wemr97dl Posted March 13, 2017 Author Posted March 13, 2017 Just checked each zip folder has a .bin and .cue

wemr97dl Posted March 13, 2017 Author Posted March 13, 2017 Watching the new tutorial now, is he just importing the cue sheets?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
neil9000 Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 Yeah you only need to import the .cue. If you import the .bin as well you will get duplicate games.

SentaiBrad Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 When you go to download your artwork again, make sure to click on the platform on the left, then click a game, Ctrl + A, then go to Tools -> Download Metadata and Images. This way it will only download the artwork for what you've selected.
wemr97dl Posted March 13, 2017 Author Posted March 13, 2017 All my roms are in zipped folders ?? so *.cue doesnot find anything, is there a way to run this leaving them zipped or do i need to extract them all??
neil9000 Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 You can keep them zipped and launchbox will extract them when you launch a game, there is a tick box somewhere during the import process, I'm not sure where though as I have never used it. Personally I would unzip them all, your not saving a whole load of space by keeping them zipped anyway.
SentaiBrad Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 You can check the box when you edit an emulator to un-archive them, but I personally suggest to leave nothing in archives ever. That's just personal preference though. For Disc games you could save some decent space by leaving them zipped, but it's much much more of a headache. For certain systems, like PS1, PS2, PSP, GameCube, Wii, I have every compressed in non-archived compression, and it saves space without having to deal with it. For Saturn, there isn't another method, but I still would say to unarchive them.
wemr97dl Posted March 13, 2017 Author Posted March 13, 2017 What core do I use in retro arch? I'm setting it up in rocket launcher Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Lordmonkus Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 For Saturn use the Mednfen Saturn core, the Yabause one is not even close in quality.
wemr97dl Posted March 13, 2017 Author Posted March 13, 2017 That's not in my cores?Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
Lordmonkus Posted March 13, 2017 Posted March 13, 2017 Not in your Retroarch or not in your RocketLauncher ?
