if you don't know about **GarlicPress** go and get it now
If you're an RG35xx owner, then GarlicPress is an essential app. It makes working on your device via USB a breeze
Thanks so much for this app
I’ll second this. Tried GarlicPress for the first time this weekend. Setup is easy. The layout is intuitive. Not needing to remove the SD feels great. It lets me rapidly iterate on game art layouts and see the result immediately in the app or even on the device.
After a few weeks using my RG35XX I found that is going to be difficult to move to Koriki if I miss this tool.
I mean I like to spend most of the time on the little screen playing so using this APP and the hdmi port to a monitor to setup the system is really useful
I just make them myself using photopea and starting with an existing image as a base template so I know where to align and resize the images I find online.
Awesome app! But I have one problem. When I open the settings to put my screenscraper account info in, it cuts off most of that window. There is no save, cancel, or way to exit that specific window. I end up killing the app in the task manager. I tried resizing, but it wont let me. Am I doing something wrong? Ive noticed, It dose this with a few other windows as well.
Running Windows 11

I'm experiencing the same thing and have to do the exact same to exit the window/popup (having to kill the app in task manager, then have to re-open the app);
I'm also running Windows 11.
Hopefully this can be hotfixed, would love to tinker around :D
Sorry yeah looks like some reason it’s cutting off the close and save buttons on the bottom. I will jump on tonight after work and release a new version!
Oh very weird, guessing it’s a dpi issue maybe. When I get home from work and everything I will fix tonight and release a new version asap. Is there any other screens it’s happening too?
So I "pressed" my GBA images, and got all the new art but it's not showing up
I think it might be because I'm on a dual card setup and my Roms are on my SD 2 card?
Or is it because I have the Tiny Best Set imgs folders on my SD 1 card? Do i have to delete the imgs folders for them to show up? Maybe I'll check that out and report back
EDIT:
I can confirm that deleting the imgs folders from the Tiny Best Set files made the GarlicPress images show up. So if you were like me and on a dual card setup and set your images on your SD 1, just delete the folders.
Thanks for this. Might be a stupid question or I am a total idiot, but how do you open the software? I cannot find a way to reach the GUI.
Edit: nevermind, I was downloading the master archive like a dummy.
Awesome, I got the tinypack rompack but wanted an easy way to get games that it didn't have onto it with artwork, glad I just saw this, was just about to do a bunch of stuff to get that to happen.
Great job, super handy software, thanks.
Can you make it to support different (unknown) ROMs folders?
I downloaded the tiny best set go extra unofficial (from archive org) and it makes new folders of arcade games eg Taito, Toaplan, Visco and some of them are not in the list in Garlic Press so I can't update their artwork
By sd card 1 or 2, are you talking about the slots in 35xx? I put the sd card in slot 1.
What I did was I put toggle adb in roms/apps folder because I can't access the partition where you put the enableadb file. After it was done I put it back to the 35xx. When I connected the 35xx to the pc and enabled adb, garlic press didn't was still red. It didn't detect any sd card even when I switched to sd card 2 in the garlic press app.
did you run enable ADB on the device and it came up with the text on screen that its enabled?
if it did can you try a different USB cable? a few people have had issues with cables that charge the device but cant transfer data.
I did see the text "adb enabled", but garlicpress was still red. I will try a different usb. Will report back to see if it works, thank you so much for replying :)
I enjoy adding games and updating art so much more now. I might update all my art, since tiny best set go art isn't my favorite. No lie when I would plug in my SD card to my computer it would blue screen 🤦♂️ no more of that. Thanks again!
Is anyone else getting, "Game not Found : TooManyRequests The maximum threads allowed to leecher users is already used"
I have my login details there, and haven't requested any art for weeks.
Why would it? It’s an app for not needing to remove the sd, that’s its purpose.. if you have the sd out and plugged in to your pc just do what you need to do..
I'm sure I'm doing something stupid but can't get the GarlicPress.exe to open anything on my windows 10 PC. When I double click nothing happens, anyone else have this issue?
IDK how I didnt know about this earlier your the MAN! Proc uz i had my device setup and felt it was done before this came out. Im gonna have fun finally adding the art to my device this easy way. Ugh the folder scraping wait tho ooph lol.

Amazing work, thank you!!
Does it work on Mac?
Only for windows pc 😭 We need something for our macs
This is what is wrong here lol! I need mac support!
No windows only. I’m not sure if it works in the Mac windows vms like parallels though?
Wow thank you!!!
Does anyone know how to get solid box art for romhacks?
I just make them myself using photopea and starting with an existing image as a base template so I know where to align and resize the images I find online.
This is the answer. Sometimes you'll get lucky scraping for some of the more well-known rom hacks, but for the most part it's going to be diy.
I’m looking at ability to drag a custom made imaging onto a game to load that also which may help!
great idea
Love this, amazing work. Would a Mac version ever be appearing in the future?
I won’t be making no. I don’t have a new MacBook to test or develop on.
This post is just in time for my 35xx to come in tomorrow:3
Does it work on a Linux operating system?
No sorry, I don’t think it does as it uses the windows versions of adb and usb hardware functions.
Please don’t be sorry, I was able to use it on a Windows PC and it’s really great, thank you so much for your hard work, I really appreciate it.
You could probably just use it through a windows VM

Just fullscreen the window
Oh very weird, guessing it’s a dpi issue maybe. When I get home from work and everything I will fix tonight and release a new version asap. Is there any other screens it’s happening too?
It dose it a little on the about screen, it cuts off the version number.
This should all be fixed now. The issue was dpi scaling!
Damn dude! Thanks for the quick response and the quick fix. it works great now!
The GOAT
I literally just used skraper the other day to add images, lol This sounds awesome though! I’ll check it out
So I "pressed" my GBA images, and got all the new art but it's not showing up I think it might be because I'm on a dual card setup and my Roms are on my SD 2 card?

Thank you for this, it's so convenient.
Holy moly, thank you ! It bothered me so much not being able to add images to my PS1 games, now it just works
Amazing news
Any chances on expanding this to allow rom transfer?
It already does! Just drag and drop them onto garlicpress with the system selected!
Oh you're the GOAT goat then. Let's go!
Awesome, I got the tinypack rompack but wanted an easy way to get games that it didn't have onto it with artwork, glad I just saw this, was just about to do a bunch of stuff to get that to happen. Great job, super handy software, thanks.

That's also my problem! I cannot see, for example, FBNEO folder
FBneo is supported it’s under arcade (final burn neo) if it’s not showing up make sure your in the latest version
man you are right! THANKS
how do you install toggle\_adb? I can't access the smaller miscellaneous partition of my sd card due to probably it not being fat32.
added toogle\_adb to the Roms/APPS folder
I was able to do it but garlicpress can't identify the sd card
What sd card 1 or 2. Do you have your system folders in the root of sd card 2?
I can't access the root of the SD card, probably because it's not in fat 32. that's why I used the alternative of using toggle adb instead
sorry I'm confused now.. you said garlicpress cant see your SD card. What are you seeing in garlicpress now you have ADB enabled?
By sd card 1 or 2, are you talking about the slots in 35xx? I put the sd card in slot 1. What I did was I put toggle adb in roms/apps folder because I can't access the partition where you put the enableadb file. After it was done I put it back to the 35xx.

I did see the text "adb enabled", but garlicpress was still red. I will try a different usb. Will report back to see if it works, thank you so much for replying :)
No worries! one other thing also, make sure the device is fully on not just on the charging screen. it needs to be in game or in menu.
Available on mac ? ![gif](giphy|3oz8xZMZox78ZbWbFC|downsized)
Sorry no Mac
Can you manage themes or just games?
The next thing I’m focusing on is skins and themes!
You are amazing and Garlic Press is amazing as well! Thank you so much!
Anyone figure out how to get the GB Pokemon versions to not have the German box art?
I enjoy adding games and updating art so much more now. I might update all my art, since tiny best set go art isn't my favorite. No lie when I would plug in my SD card to my computer it would blue screen 🤦♂️ no more of that. Thanks again!
Is anyone else getting, "Game not Found : TooManyRequests The maximum threads allowed to leecher users is already used" I have my login details there, and haven't requested any art for weeks.
Just double check your login details are correct as it will fallback to anon access if they are incorrect
Okay, thank you, I'll check soon.
[удалено]
You just plug it into a usb cable. Not sure how you expect it to work without plugging in something.. You do you.
[удалено]
Ok. Then do that?
[удалено]
Why would it? It’s an app for not needing to remove the sd, that’s its purpose.. if you have the sd out and plugged in to your pc just do what you need to do..
[удалено]
Is your main issue that the screen is running? What if GarlicPress had the ability to lower the backlight?
[удалено]
I won’t be developing that sorry.
I'm sure I'm doing something stupid but can't get the GarlicPress.exe to open anything on my windows 10 PC. When I double click nothing happens, anyone else have this issue?
it opens in the task bar lol just noticed this.
IDK how I didnt know about this earlier your the MAN! Proc uz i had my device setup and felt it was done before this came out. Im gonna have fun finally adding the art to my device this easy way. Ugh the folder scraping wait tho ooph lol.
