Getting A Game To Run On Drmdx

[Lettuce Dude]

I got the emulator to run ok but I cant figure out where exactaly to put the roms. I have read the read me but its not very clear I made a folder in the same directory as the emu called genesis with another folder inside that called megadrive because thats what I thought I was meant to do but obviously not as when I try to load a game it tells me to read the read me again and calls me an idiot.

Thanks for any help.

From the read me

"
Now you need to copy some Genesis games to your GP2X. These *MUST* go
into the /roms/megadrive directory on your sd card. This is to simplify the
rom selection process and it also makes my life alot easier.
"

Let me translate for you...
Create a folder on your SD card called /roms/megadrive.
Put your roms in this folder.

Or shall I break down this further for you

First create a folder called "roms" in the root directory of your SD card.
Then go into that directory
You should now be in the roms directory
Now create a folder called "megadrive"
Now copy your megadrive games ( also known as genesis games ) into the megadrive directory you have just created.

Remember the directory names are case sensitive, so don't use any capiltals.

Dont diss the young. At 13 i was already coding php & java fulltime Now, years later, Im still doing that

must admit, i'm not 13 and it caught me out.....

i kinda assumed the path was relative and that the roms folder went inside the drMD folder i.e.

sd card:/drmd/roms/megadrive

dont feel bad lettuce

Just goes to show how much of us are geeks here. I was running my own PD mail-order service and coding for the amiga by the age of 11 :unsure: Mind you, you needed to make alot of money to support THAT hobby the gp2x cost me peanuts (even after you add the £30 charge I had to pay for frying a resistor on my 1st unit) compared to what you had to pay for the amiga hardware and upgrades
