Still no news/themes? :-( the rom view page is just so boring and ugly

[ceuse]

ok i tried the scraper again today and found some strange errors while using it :

any idea what this is?

edit ok i just think atari 2600 generaly is broken.. alot of double scrapes. completly wrong scrapes and even got a ps4 picture scraped .. strange stuff

[ceuse]

sooooo…. how about even more systems? :-) atari 5200 & 7800? or whatever else is missing :-)

[ceuse]

thanks for the atari code :-) ovgdb seems rather bad though. checked with atari2600 and they got no images and mostly wrong data. dont know if atari2600 is just bad there or ovdb is just bad

[ceuse]

bump. can you give me the script aswell? downloaded all atari 2600 Images using the Emumovies Downloader but im much too lazy to create a gamelist.xml myself.

[ceuse]

only the offical one wich reads :

Daniel Frisk has provided the following instructions on how to get started.

Minecraft – Pi Edition runs on Raspbian “wheezy” with XWindows. If you need to set that up, visit http://www.raspberrypi.org/downloads and follow the detailed instructions within.
Boot up your Raspberry Pi with Raspbian. If you haven’t set XWindows to start automatically upon boot, type in “startx”.
Next click the icon for LXTerminal to open a new terminal window. Use the following commands (in bold) to download and launch:

To download it: click here or visit https://s3.amazonaws.com/assets.minecraft.net/pi/minecraft-pi-0.1.1.tar.gz
To decompress it: tar -zxvf minecraft-pi-0.1.1.tar.gz
To run it: cd mcpi
Followed by minecraft-pi

[ceuse]

me neither, didnt knew gba worked aswell since it wasnt descriped anywhere :-) works quite well :-) and atari i ask because i got alot roms form that system ;-)

[ceuse]

so no way to get this to work within emulationstation? sad :-(

[ceuse]

sooo. how about atari 2600 and gba support ? :-)

[ceuse]

Unicode could be a thing. prolly need to check my gamelist.xmls which i edited manually if it gets encoded wrong. Is UTF-8 without BOM the right encodeing or better ansi?

edit: first google result said ansi would be better. prolly that was my problem since i edited the gamelist.xml manually also. well first the emulationstation needs finish compile ^^

edit2: it also seems that its a memory issue when i added another system to the gui. gotta have to reallocate memory according to friend google

edit3: yep it was the number of systems. 12 are working fine, when i added 2 more it broke.

[ceuse]

a binary update fixed my installation :-) im slowly getting the hang of linux

also send you the Hashfile via pn

Edit : ok as soon as i readd the turbograph games & gamelist the complete emulationstation gets fucked up.

after i Removed them again its stilled messed up (i notice by alot of [][][][] in the options for sort by in the gamelist. also quite a few white pictures in the gamelist. strange stuff) gonna update binaries again and stay away from turbographfx games for a while

[ceuse]

tried the new version :-) 32x and gg worked great. tourbographx-16 seems like an awefull low find rate

another example :

hope it helps. keep up the good work (i love the nested tag :-)

edit :
i think i broke my installation :-( complete ui is broken cant even get in the menue anymore everything blank. i think i will reinstall and copy everything over again. all started with white rom pictures and got worse from there. anyone had this problem earlier?

[ceuse]

I Love you *blush* cant wait for the next release just saw the last commitments cant wait for the next release :-)

[ceuse]

works great now :-).
btw did you edit anything about the gbc hash.csv yet? and how about that subfolder switch now? ;-)
your awesome mate. slowly but surely my collection gets imaged :)

hope my posts help you out. doesnt meen to anoy you just trying to help :)

[ceuse]

Hey mate, i saw you fixed the error with backslashs & image subfolders. although i kinda liked the way it organised with sub-image folders. would be great if you put a switch in (-seperate_folders or smth)

also another gbc hashfile / problem gbc rom :

it scrapes this image/game : https://thegamesdb.net/game/238/
but it should actialy scrape : https://thegamesdb.net/game/20734/

hope this info helps (since it shows something else then not found)

cant find the sha-1 in the csv.. is the rom broken or the list somewhat off? as said by previous poster, there are quite low sucsess rates compared to gb and all the other supported platforms. at least something seems off

[ceuse]

[quote=82094]I got to try this finally and I LOVE IT!! Here are my findings – NES 90%, SNES 80%, GB 90%, GBA 85% and GBC 15%. For some reason it barely found any of my GBC roms but those go through the scraper really well anyways! Thanks for your hard work on this, it has massive potential and should be included with RetroPie in my opinion![/quote]

just wanted to report the same thing… alot of gbc wont scrape even though i randomly checked a few and they defently are in the gamesdb.net .. is there a way to check if the hash of my / our roms are diffrent or if its a problem with the code?

[ceuse]

thanks for adding my subfolder Scraping :-)

info for everybody : you need to create a image folder in the root with a Folder for each subfolder youre scraping. so basicly images\europe Images\Usa images\Japan etc

edit i think you have a error in there though (at least windows version).

my xml shows : .\images/Europe\ … i checked the original xmls and there it is allways / .. perhaps its just the windows version with this problem. anyway i just replaced every \ with / in notepad++ and it works fine now. thanks for the great tool :) now just add more and more systems *ggg*

[ceuse]

Great Tool, i run into a problem though

i have subfolders in my Rom directory (translation, europe, Japan, us). i ran the script in every folder seperatly but the pi does not recognise the gamelist File.

is there a way that you can implement subfolder scraping , or at least tell me how i get emulationstation to recognise my subfolders with gamelists.xml?

Thanks in advance
