Saving box art to external hard drive - Nvidia Shield


Retro4Ever

Recommended Posts

I am using the Nvidia Shield and I have a 5TB external drive hooked up too it.  On the drive I have all my roms, but it is not formatted for device storage as I still want to view the drive on my PC as well if needed.  So how can I get it to download all the data for Launchbox (especially the box art/images) onto the external drive that has all the roms, but still be able to plug the drive into the PC.  I can access the roms from Lauchbox on the external drive, but when downloading the images it saves onto the internal space.

 

Thanks

I had to download a different app.  I was able to move the folder like you mentioned and it seems to be working.  

Quick question, instead of starting a topic just for this.  On the Nvidia Shield when selecting Platforms then your platform of choice with the box art, I can't access the "more options" (Box View, Emulator settings) without the use of a cursor.  The Nvidia Shield remote or the Dual Shock remote won't select the top right corner for the menu option, not without a track pad (which I am using at the moment).

 

Thanks for the help.

You do need a controller in order to press the Y button to open that menu currently. I am aware of the remote issue, but since you can't really play games with just a remote anyways, it hasn't been a priority to fix.
