Hi!

So im interested cause i couldnt find the answer..

1st:
So last night i renamed every single rom on my vita (nes, snes, genesis, gamegear, game boy etc...) and when i scanned games in retroarch to show up, the names where not what i renamed them. For example:
I renamed "Metroid Fusion (USA)[!].gba" to "Metroid Fusion.gba" and i scaned roms and it showed me name that wasnt eather of those two, it showed me "Metroid Fusion (EUS,Europe).gba".


How can i actually rename them AGAIN so they show up as i wish them to show up?

2nd:
I have filters folder inside data/retroarch folder on my vita, but whenever i aply filter the game is slow and often it locks up i need to eather hard reset my Vita or to exit retroarch completly in most cases. Only bilinear filtering doesnt produce slowdowns or locks up the retroarch.

Do you know any or is there some listo of good filters for vita retroarch that dont slowdown the game at all and are stable?

3rd:
And lastly i wanted to put backgrounds (pictures) as a background but i simply dont know how. I put pics (JPG, PNG...) into some folder and when i go to setings and wallpaper and i want to find those pics to make them background for retroarch, they just wont show, like they arent there.

How can i make custom wallpaper for retroarch?


Thanks!

I dont know about the 3rd question, but about the 1st one, i use playlist, is better (with niotepad++), and regarding the filters: simply they didn't work properly on Vita yet.

    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction

    Just kiss me Kyle.

    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive

    Seems like, your PSU was waiting for a partner.
