DreamShell Game Menu Covers - GamerGhosts - 03.08.2025 06:02
Hi There!
Are there basic instructions for using a PNG image as a cover for Game Menu?
For example if I have a folder (containing a GDI OPT game):
GAMES\102 Dalmatians - Puppies to the Rescue
What should I name the cover, what should the dimensions be, where does it need to be? I'm using SATA. I've tried a lot of different things and just can't get it to display in the Game Menu. It seems to be fine in ISO_LOADER.
Also noting in the latest version Extract Missing Game Images and Optimize just seems to freeze with SATA.
Thanks for you help and guidance!

1.Copy the image in the format Game folder name.PNG to the folder DS/apps/games_menu/covers
2.What is Extract Missing Game Images? Is it a game?

Here is what I have for the game. The game itself came from the US Games Thread here, I just removed the name.txt for testing (http://www.dc-swat.ru/forum/thread-3851.html).

Here is the info about the image:

When I go into Games Menu that image never shows. Even as I change views.
The missing covers item is an option when you press Start in the Games Menu. It is the first option above Optimized Covers.
