@retrowolfe
yep you are fine, give the latest a shot, it should work on V4 now for game launches and then when V5 comes out, Pixelcade will also update when you are scrolling through games and systems from ES

@retrowolfe cool! thanks for letting me know. Almost done with the automated installer if you want to try that out later, perhaps after moving to RetroBat V5

@pixelcade-admin I will try the installer. The only art not displaying correctly for me is Atari lynx and jaguar displays "arcade" on the marquee. And nintendo ds not showing game names. But idk if this is a missing art issue or something else.

cool, thanks in advance for trying the installer, that will be helpful. For reference, here is the Pixelcade artwork repo https://github.com/alinke/pixelcade/ . There is artwork for lynx and jaguar so could be a naming issue but would be good to get the log (pixelweb.log) and see what is happening. You'd need to go to those, pick some games, and then upload the log.

but run the installer first and that will also get you the latest artwork

lynx,atarilynx
jaguar,atarijaguar

i'll add this in the next release

@pixelcade-admin Ok I will try that and do I do something similar for each console that doesn't work or just keep notes and let you know?

you'll need to close the pixelcade listener and re-start it after making the changes
