Hi,

not really a Problem but i want to save space.

Which Folder is important ?

Both have the same Contents from the same Games.

At the /tar even if the original *.tar Files is deleted after Installation.

Is the /tar/gamedata only a Backupfolder and the arcade/gamedata the productive one ?

You know, I'm curious about this as well. I've noticed that the number of games listed in those folder is significantly less than the number of games I have installed. For example I have 88 games installed - all of which are working properly yet in those folders there is game data for only 15 of the games. Exactly how are those folders being used?

Oh, thats not my Problem. Some Games need some extra Files and these are stored there.

I am only wondering about this Twin-Effect.

arcade/gamedata/ is the folder you need.


I've deleted all the files from my arcade/tar/gamedata/ folder and games work normally.
