where do i enable boxart/cartridge images?

[scurvy]

i downloaded all the box art/cartridges for nes, but i've tried multiple themes and they never show up in gameex. Is there an option that i can't find to turn cartridge and box art on?

Put your cartridge art in a folder named Cart and your box art in another folder named box art (or whatever you desire to name them). Go into the config and specify which folders these are and where GameEx can find them. Make sure disable info page for NES is set to = NO. The info page is the page you see after you select a game and has info on the game. You should be able to see a couple of selections on this page to view box art and cartridge art, etc. Don't forget that your images must be named and spelled the same as the game or you will not see them (unless you have snap best match turned on).

I'm probably just making a stupid mistake, but I did this and still cannot see my box art. I checked and the names are spelled correctly, so they should be there. I just don't see anything. Can somebody help me?

Are you selecting a game and then looking right under where it says "Play Game" there should be Cartridge, box etc..... Just highlight what you want.

If thats not working try turning on/off the "snap best match" setting in the Tweaks/Performance section of the advanced config. Then try again
