my rp3+ showed up this weekend, fucker's still hashing just the overkill NES rom pack I put on it Sunday night
Huh, weird! I've only had issues with the PSP emulator on it, and that was just due to some obscure controller setting I had accidently enabled. What exactly is it like...doing?
It's scanning 3.4GB of NES ROMs in the retroid loader thingy. Shows it's at 54% right now, I'm not really sure what it's hashing but I believe it's trying to find box art as well as just scan everything
Ah gotcha. I assume it's on WiFi? I got the roms loaded on mine after I did the initial setup, so each app just had to scan the library then. Didn't have any issues with Dolphin or anything. With NES I'd imagine you'd be running through retroarch, which to my knowledge doesnt do box art or anything.
Also if I should just shut up please tell me, I'm not exactly
here
Yeah I'm not really sure what the heck it's hashing. I should have found a smaller ROM pack without so many damn duplicates.
Curious, where did you get the rom pack from? Thinking about it more, good chance there might be some broken files
archive.org
Huh. Yeah, I'd say maybe it's the files more than anything, but again, I don't know shit about fuck
a bunch of them seem to be 10-in-1, 50-in-1, etc combo packs. Real serious overkill
How do you have 3.4gb of NES ROMs? There were 1400 NES games and the largest one was under a megabyte.
What can I say, I downloaded a 3.4GB NES ROM pack and it's got way too many games in it, lots of duplicates.
all the actual nes games are like 20 meg overall if you got it of archive.org you have a lot of deleting to do
