Frequently Asked Questions

Welcome to the Lemuroid FAQs!

Why aren't my games recognized?

Please check the specific Scanning section.

Where does Lemuroid stores save files?

Lemuroid saves directory is "/sdcard/Android/data/com.swordfish.lemuroid/files/saves", while states are store stored in "/sdcard/Android/data/com.swordfish.lemuroid/files/states".

Can I import my save files from Retroarch?

Yes, you can. Just disable Autosave and copy the content of your Retroarch saves folder into Lemuroid saves folder.

How can I manually back up my save files?

Just backup Lemuroid saves and states folders and you should be good to go.

Are psx multi-disk games supported?

Yes. If you have a multidisk games you should also provide an m3u playlist file. It's a simple text file where each line is the disk file name (stored in the same directory). Here's an example content of Final Fantasy IX (USA).m3u:

Final Fantasy IX (USA) (Disc 1) (Rev 1).cue
Final Fantasy IX (USA) (Disc 2) (Rev 1).cue
Final Fantasy IX (USA) (Disc 3) (Rev 1).cue
Final Fantasy IX (USA) (Disc 4) (Rev 1).cue

I generally play with Retroarch on another machine, can I share saves with Lemuroid?

Yeah, I generally use Syncthing to keep the Retroarch save folder in sync with Lemuroid. Just make sure you disable Autosave or your save files might get overwritten by older versions!
