importing roms

[kidshoalin]

I have been using launch box and have finished importing my Nintendo and Sega Consoles, took a break and started to to use big box and have some fun, I started to import another system Bandai WonderSwan and they are importing but I notice there is a  ._ before every rom

I tried several other roms packs and its doing the same thing to every import with a ._ before the zipped roms

before it would import just fine, any clue as to why it would to this?

Thanks

please anybody, when I parse roms in LB I get a dot before my zipped roms in LB, WHY?

can you share a screen shot to help us understand better. I'm thinking now from what you wrote the game will be named .mario brothers.zip?

I figured it out, so sorry for wasting time, when you are in the final stage of importing your roms, I was getting my roms doubled in that final task, so I deleted half of them and then the roms I had imported properly, but what is weird is I never had that in my folder ?

Those weird ._ files or whatever are caused by certain apps or operating systems. I think they may be Mac-related, iirc. They're typically hidden or system files.

would a show all hidden folders and files be worthy of getting rid of that I would assume, thank you very much, you stirred mw in the right path
