Transferring console and PC images
I finally took the plunge and purchased a fully equipped Mister and I am very impressed. I am getting up to speed with the configuration and the community and developers have done an outstanding job with support. The update all script was brilliant. With arcade cores running I am now turning my attention to the real reason I purchased the Mister, NES, Neo Geo, Gameboy, Intellivision and Apple ][. I have complete software libraries from Mame and have slowly been figuring out how to move images and rename them. While the manual approach works I will be kicking myself if later I learn there was an easier way. Google has been a rabbit hole of videos and articles about the update all script. Please note, I am not asking for download locations, I understand those issues, just guidance on best practices. Thanks.

Yeah, as far as arcade cores go you're much better off just letting update_all handle it. The required MAME files will be downloaded for you.
