Some systems have no thumbnail folders

[PCKid]

Most of mine are fine but there are no thumbnail folders with boxart folders for Commodore Amiga or Atari Lynx. Also their systems are not recognised just as generic names though the games work.

Hi @PCKid thanks for the question, may I confirm a few more details to try and narrow this down:

• May I confirm what you mean by "there are no thumbnail folders with boxart folders". Where specifically are you expecting to see thumbnails, are you talking about within LaunchBox, or are you referring to image directories on disk?
• How did you import those 2 systems?
• Can you elaborate on their "systems are not recognised just as generic names". Are you referring to the games not being linked to a LaunchBox GamesDB ID, and therefore isn't pulling down any metadata for those games?

Please let me know and we'll get you sorted.

Cheers,

I’m running it using the retrorama theme. I’ve worked out the boxart issue by creating my own Named_Boxarts folder in specific systems folder in Thumbnails folder. There was only a couple that didn’t have them. Atari Lynx and Atari 8 bit. As you scroll along the top in landscape view Retrorama shows, in mine for example, Atari 2600, Atari 5200, Atari 7800 the Atari Lynx and then Atari-8-bit. Both these last two are just called Retrorama Video Game System instead of the Atari names. Hope that’s explained well enough.

Hi there, thanks for the update and explanation there. Unfortunately, I'm still not 100% sure where you are referring to, is it possible to share a screenshot or a screen recording demonstrating the issue? Let me know if that would be okay.

Thanks guys but I’ve decided to ditch the retrorama theme. It’s still a bit buggie.
