Hi all,

Still a noob here so apologies if this has been covered else where.

I’m still attempting to download the 8 tb pi piggies – almost done ? but I’m wondering given the pi piggies build is a bit old now:

1) will I need to update it? – if so is this easy enough?
2) am I better off downloading either a fresh install of hyperspin / launch box and use the ROMs from the packs to make my own build?
3) are there any bits that needs addressing apart from win 10 update if I was to use the build as is?
4) is there a way to add time crisis 5 in to the original build ?
5) does anyone know how this build is vs the arcadesystems 8 tb version? Consider or no point if I have the 8 tb pi piggies ?
6) I have read the nfo files but is there a list of all systems and games and also a screen shot of how the folder layouts should be?
7) I have seen megacade by extreme home arcades – how do they have two hdd? Can I have win 10 with all installation files on one drive (ssd C drive) and then ROMs on separate drive(s) either 1 or two drives – does it matter if the drive isn’t D drive? Any way round this?

I am fairly computer literate so I don’t mind tinkering and doing things.

Thanks in advance

There are things to fix on the 8tb pipiggies, not as much as the 4tb WeShitBack build – of course buying a set up gives you all the advantages of it being fixed by paid developers (so you would hope!)

Hi Ninja, thanks for your reply – I’m willing to play around with things and see how it goes before commuting to a purchase build – will be good to learn the system and how it works.

I’ve tried to look through the forums and found various information – is there a latest / up to date guide for the fixes? Or if not even a guide specific posts?

Thanks
