  • @elenasayshi
    i just realized why something went wrong when i tried this a few weeks ago i accidentally typed "gameicon" instead of "gamelogo"
  • @jeffreywarf
    Where do you place the image file(s) to be detected by the sdk? because i've tried putting them in "assets" and they're not seen. I've also tried putting them in each sub folder and they're still not seen.

    Where do I find songs that have the GameCategory thing
  • @ant2395
    I did everything you said, but when I go to the category in the game it crashes :(
  • @OHNOHELLNOno
    I see you show the song.ini but where do I find that? Don't have it in my GHWTDE folder
