@mitu dont know what to say....
i tried erasing the gamelist and only tried with three games,
BofF1, BofF2, and another one and scraped the three, when i opened the gamelist.xml it had only BofF2 (after quiting in the correct way ES) and i repeated and scraped BofF1 (again) and close and when i went back to the gamelist the BofF2 information disapeared compleatly, as i made a copy of the first file i recover the information of BofF2 and put it in the new one and saved and now it works.... but i needed to do it manually as each time the other game was erased from the gamelist file when the other one was entered and the game closed.

@otaolafr I don't think your problem is related to ES. ES doesn't delete games from the gamelist when the game isn't scraped and on startup ES always reads the files in the system's folder and adds them to the gamelist according to extention.
Do you have Parse Gamelist only turned on ?

[otaolafr]

@mitu oh i tried the parse gamelist only and now i understand what you understood from my old post,
i didnt meant that ES was eraising the rom, actually the two of them show in the GBA section when i have parse games only turned off, what i meant is that ES erase the information (the one i got from scraping it) of the second game each time i scrap the other one. like i open ES and i have BofF 1 scraped with images and all info and BofF 2 without any info, i scrap, i succesfully scrap BofF 2, so, i enter the GBA and have the two games with all the metadata , i quit ES, and when i re open it only BofF 2 has the metadata and BofF 1 has nothing. and each time it does for the other one. sorry for maybe not expressing myself correctly

@otaolafr hi I’m having same problem my ES scrapper for herb fargus portable game station stopped working I added the new jrassa updated build the first one on the releases page released 11 days ago and now it kinda wants to work trying to scrape but still doesn’t work how can I make it work and another issue is how do I update retroarch from 1.5 to the newest for the windows portable game station by herb fargus i tried updating retroarch as shown on YouTube videos but it crashes when ES is opened so I need to fix these 2 issues can you or anyone help thanks in advance.

@arcee84 Emulationstation's built-in scraper doesn't work right now - it's the 1st pinned topic in the help section. For RA problem, try deleting your retroarch.cfg and start RA standalone at fist, so it will create the default configuration file.

@mitu what do you mean by starting stand-alone how do I update ra first of all.

[mitu]

@arcee84 You update it like you installed it the first time - download a release from the libtretro.com site, unpack it and then run retroarch.exe.

@mitu do I override the files in herb fargus 1.5 portable game station retroarch folder with the newest one.

@mitu also how do I delete my account on here this forum chat

[mitu]

@arcee84 I think that may be up to the @administrators - they can remove your account.

[BuZz]

@arcee84 I will remove. I would recommend not signing up in the future to forums if you're going to make a few posts then ask for the account to be removed. It's a waste of your time and mine.
