What to do with Skyscaper can't find info? Fully up to date retropie and built-in skyscraper.
-
I was just testing out Skyscaper (installed via opt.) on my NES files. It found Dr. Mario, but couldn't find mario, mario 2, or mario 3. Any reason why and any way to help it doing what it needs to do? If not, is there a way to add the info manually? Am I missing something?
The built in GUI scrape with THEGAMESDB found nothing.
-
@ColBojank What is the name of the files ? What scraping source are you using ?
-
Super Mario Bros.zip
Super Mario Bros 2.zip
etc.I'm using the default source. Update, once I did an update to retropie from the retropie-setup.sh, the built-in scaper is working. I thought an apt-get upgrade was enough, but I guess not.
-
@ColBojank The default source should be ScreenScraper, that supports checksums for ROM. If you ROM are non-standard, it might not find them - but you can check using another source (TheGamesDb).

I tried scraping for the ROMs you mentioned and I had no problems. For reference, here are the ROM names and their MD5 checksum:
- Super Mario Bros. (World).zip (md5 - 2961ae52ee8dee9a9fbc7680ced1f741)
- Super Mario Bros. 2 (USA).zip (md5 - 200edb85a698ccf5e11a0dcee0e0e771)
- Super Mario Bros. 3 (USA).zip (md5 - 1961b6290a81c4665109951bbeb9bd55)
