Ensure the filename matches the ROM name exactly. Confirm the image resolution is exactly 316x224 and color depth is 24/32-bit. | | Some games don't appear in Cover View | The game list may have been built before covers were added. Try refreshing the game list or reloading the emulator. Pay attention to capital letters in the filenames. Special characters or brackets in the ROM name can cause issues; renaming the ROM and cover is the best solution. | | The mod crashes or has graphical glitches | You might have a version conflict. Try using a different, more stable mod version, such as the Zopenko compilation mod linked above.

A clean install by deleting old configuration files (like settings.xml ) can often resolve issues. | | Covers load very slowly | Loading many high-resolution images from a USB drive can be slow. Try using a faster storage device or reduce the number of ROMs/covers in a single folder.
