Hi Pieter, I know it must be difficult to add the special characters in Spanish, but the amount of people who would join this community would make RetroFe bigger, greetings and happy holidays.

Does the theme you are using, has the option to show the <description> tag?

hi I know nothing about python or retrofe just a stab in the dark... Is it anything to do with the dbl slashes in the filename it cant execute??   I wont be able to assist further as well new to this... my 2 cents.. good luck :)

Hi, the double slashes at the end, it's just the way the system shows a path for the file I can't find.

BTW thanks for the reply.

Did you skip the compile step? If you compiled you should have the retrofe.exe in the RetroFE\Build\Release directory if I’m not mistaken. See if it’s there.

No, I don't skip compile process, It even happens to me in Linux. I attached a txt with the records (Linux).

Thanks in advance.

Hello, I hope everyone is well.

I have a problem when compiling RetroFe, I get all the files, except the most important of all: retrofe.exe. I attach an image of the error for anyone who can help me, thank you in advance.

C:\retrofe>python Scripts\Package.py --os=windows --build=core
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "Scripts\Package.py", line 140, in <module>

If you are downloading the gamelists (which doesnt make sense, because how do you know it matches your roms) the path element probably doesn't start with "./". If you get the gamelist from scraping your roms with SkraperUI then it will work. In SkraperUI you can turn off all media downloads and just generate a gameslist.xml.

Please upload a copy of the gameslist you are trying to convert.

Now I understand how to make it work, great!

dustind900, why when I create a gamelist only the name fields are kept?, ignores the other fields. Do you have an example of a Gamelist.xml file?, maybe it's the xml that I downloaded.

So it's some weird permissions issue with having the meta.db file on the NAS rather than the local drive. It's odd that RetroFE can create the file and write to the log file correctly on the NAS, but it can't open the for write access the Meta.db file


For me, that has more to do with permissions within the NAS than a bug in RetroFE.

I've been testing the software and found that it doesn't show any drives other than C:\, if I copy the path I can get access to other drives.

Greetings and thanks for sharing.

This "lag" also happens with Ergo Proxy theme can it be improved in any way?

The lag has to be from animation and scrolling times. I use a really old PC in one of my builds and the only time I have lag is when there are too many animations and images getting loaded all at once.

Things that can help:
  • Use lower quality mp4 videos
  • Resize images to match the theme so RetroFE doesn't have to do the work - FotoSizer
  • Faster animation times
  • Optimize your png images - PNGGauntlet I recommend this to all theme makers

Hi dustind900, thanks for the tips, lets see if I have any improvement.
