I need some help setting up covers for BAGPlug. I put covers in /_bagui/cover art/nds
and my CoverArt.ini looks like this. Also I put the ini file in /_bagui/User Files/
Code:
**********************
[Cover Art]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/cover art/nds
#image type
type = png
**********************
I put
When BAGPlug launches the covers won't show up! What am I doing wrong?
 
Looking at your CoverArt.ini, you've got [Cover Art] as the extension that it's assigned to associate with.
and as Adeka said, for commercial games, put the Cover Art.ini in the same folder as your roms.


try this for NDS games:
Code:
[NDS]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/cover art/nds
#image type
type = png


Having a Cover Art.ini in /_bagui/user files will with work with homebrew and emulator covers.
(may be just me, but for some reason, i also need the commercial .nds path there too)
as an example, here's what my /_bagui/user file/Cover Art.ini looks like:

Code:
[a52]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/Atari5200
#image type
type =  png

[a26]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/2600
#image type
type =  png

[a78]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/Atari7800
#image type
type =  png

[avi]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/movies
#image type
type =  png

[FDS]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/Famicom
#image type
type = png

[gb]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/gameboy
#image type
type = png

[gba]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/gba
#image type
type = png

[gbc]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/gbc
#image type
type = png

[NES]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/NES
#image type
type = png

[NDS]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/ds
#image type
type = png

[NDS]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/homebrew
#image type
type = png

[plg]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/homebrew
#image type
type =  png

[sfc]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/SNES
#image type
type = png

[smc]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/SNES
#image type
type = png

[txt]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/books
#image type
type =  png

[neo]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/NeoGeo
#image type
type =  png

[WAD]
#path to folder with covers
folder = /_bagui/covers/homebrew
#image type
type =  png

also rmmbr that commercial titles use the gameID, not the rom's name,
ie ACHP.png, not TinglesRupees.png
