Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/shadps4-emu/shadPS4/issues/226
Please, add possibility to add folders for scanning of games/apps.
@Tarfist commented on GitHub (Jul 18, 2024):
Not the most important feature, but I guess you'll have to wait until the main emulator becomes stable for the devs to start working on additional features like the one you mentioned.
@notgonnaleo commented on GitHub (Aug 8, 2024):
Ok so currently shadPS4 have a option to refresh the current directory to show any new game added into the selected folder, the option itself is this one

Whenever you click this option after adding the new game in the folder it will reload the list (as expected)
So, could you specify more what exactly you want on this issue? or even if this is something that's already implemented.
@gandalfthewhite19890404 commented on GitHub (Aug 8, 2024):
Multiple folders to scan games or elfs. Not only one.
Or I can choose root folder(i.e. whole HDD) and scan it?
@notgonnaleo commented on GitHub (Aug 8, 2024):
Oh i see, I like the first option, it reminds me how FL Studio (DAW Software) works on reading folders, I will take a look on that option, let me know if there's anything else you think that would be worth to add :)
@kiwidoggie commented on GitHub (Aug 29, 2024):
One thing I have noticed is, shadPS4 does not recognize games that do not have the param.sfo (probably for good reason), but it would be nice to have the option to create "dummy" games based on the folder name if no param.sfo is found.
I could probably add support for that if this is okay with the developers intentions.
@Hermiten commented on GitHub (Oct 1, 2024):
Hey @kiwidoggie any news about this ? :)
@kiwidoggie commented on GitHub (Oct 1, 2024):
@Hermiten, I've been waiting for someone on the shadPS4 team to give me feedback.
@ElBread3 commented on GitHub (Oct 13, 2024):
Can this be closed now that I've implemented this feature?
@ares1768 commented on GitHub (Dec 29, 2024):
I installed bloodborne on my external hard drive. does anyone know how can I get it back in the game list in shadps4? refreshing does not work. (I know I can boot it still from the files)
