Hacking Emulation Gaming Hardware Homebrew Misc ROM Hack Wiiflow box covers only some working

[Doaner54]

So I followed the instructions on below average gaming youtube video "best wiiflow video". It worked perfectly for atari 2600 box covers however I am only getting a handful in atari 5200 and ps1. Could anyone give me a hand?

Are your games showing in wiiflow without the box arts?
If so it's likly that your box covers are not named correctly or you need to reload cache.
If the games are not showing at all it could be that you need to add the file type to the .Ini associated with said emulator.

For instance. If your ps1 games are in .pbp or .chd format you may need to add them in file types on your PlayStation/wiistation or wiisx configuration settings/.Ini file what will be found somewhere on your sd card in wiiflow/plugins.
You can edit such file using note pad

I might be able to help on this one. There are a couple of pieces to get pictures on a plug to show up right.

1) If your game is named "thisgame.7z" then the cover should be named "thisgame.7z.png". This is different than wii covers that do not need the extension as part of the name.

2) In the plugin file, make sure that the path is right. So, as an example, if your covers are in SD:\wiiflow\boxcovers\atari72\ then in the plugin ini file for atari72 you would want their to be this line: coverfolder=atari72

3) In the same plugin file like the other guys mentioned. You have to have the filetype listed, so you would have a line like this: filetypes=.smc|.fig|.sfc|.swc|.zip|.7z (this example is from my Super Nintendo ini, since I don't play atari72).

4) Lastly make sure the game with no cover can be seen in wiiflow and run "reload cache" off the settings menu. This will make wiiflow verify that everything that has covers will have them shown.

So, to my knowledge those are the keys.

Hi, I'm having the opposite problem as you even tho I also followed Below Average Gaming lol. I've managed to get all my other systems running perfectly but I can't get any covers to load for atari2600. I'm curious if there's anyway you can help me. I copied the gametitles+type to the pngs, double checked the .ini locations, refreshed cache, changed plug ins, even compressed the images and checked the aspect ratios.
