[RESOLVED] Retrobat not seeing a couple of ROMs Empty [RESOLVED] Retrobat not seeing a couple of ROMs

Hi, new here. I did a search for these two game names (not asking for ROMs, just searched for topics on them) and I can't seem to find an answer.

I am trying to get Ultimate Mortal Kombat 3 Plus and Mortal Kombat Turbo Ninja ROMs to be detected and Retrobat does not see them. They are named properly, and they are found in a standard MAME installation, as well as a Batocera and Retropie installation. So I know these ROMs that I have work just fine.

Im not sure as to what I need to do to add these games. The game zip files are as follows:

Mortal Kombat Turbo Ninja - mktturbo.zip
UMK3 Plus - umk3p.zip

Another hack called "Mortal Kombat Nifty Kombo" (mknifty666.zip) is found and works fine. But Retrobat wont see the other two. Ive got the zip files needed in the correct folder, and Ive started up Retrobat, as well as hit "update game lists" while in the menu as well, and still no dice.

Has anyone had this issue and if so, how did you fix it?  Thanks for any help.

Hello and welcome

Do you activate, for a reason or another, activate the option "parse gamelist only" in "developper option" ?
If yes, turn it OFF, and update game list.
If no, you should add some screenshots of you retrobat concerned rom folder, and the content of /emulationstation./emulationstation/ folder (with path visible)

Thanks for the reply. I looked in front end developer options and parse game lists only is set to OFF.  Here are some screenshots of my roms/mame folder, as well as emulationstation/.emulationstation folder.

Please let me know if you need other info, thanks!

Yes, mk.zip is in the folder as well, sorry it wasn't in the image. Retrobat does see mk.zip and a few of the other versions of Mortal Kombat.
