Really Need Help Please. Emulator Not Detecting My Games. - llSuperSaiyanll - 03-11-2016
Sorry, meant to post this in the Support topic.
Hey everyone. Been having trouble for the longest time with this and have found no solutions on google, youtube and a few other forums. I've been trying to find a way to have my Gamecube and Wii games listed in the Dolphin Emulator's built-in browser, but for some reason or another it just can't seem to find the game. Like when I click the browser and search in the folder with the games, it shows that the folder is empty when it's clearly not. I even tried going to the Config button to go to the "path" option but that was a bust too. Now, I CAN drag and drop the game in the emulator and play the game that way, but I kinda want them listed in the browser too so I can tinker with the Action Replay. I'm outta options here and I don't know what else to do. Can anyone help me please?

Can you show me a screenshot of the folder you're trying to add?

Sure thing. This first pic shows me in the browser search and the file is titled "Dolphin Games."

This next image is inside the folder from the browser's search showing nothing inside.

These are all the games I've got inside the folder.

Next one is the "path" option with a game already selected.

But again, it showing nothing inside it.

I've spent hours pulling my hair out trying to find what is wrong, so if you got any ideas that I haven't tried then please just throw'em at me.

Expand the filenames in that folder, show file extensions and take a screenshot.

The directory browser in Dolphin isn't supposed to show the files that are in directories. Click the Add... button under ISO Directories, go to the right folder, and press Select Folder.

Downloading games is against the rules.
