        I did a new gamelist.xml for gamepock (Game Pocket Computer) with videos and marquees. Great result!

          Those 3 new Konami handhelds are now on the konamih gamelist

          Special thanks to DarthMarino and HAP

          I added the roms today.
          Noticed that I have issues with the new gamelists for konamih and tigerh.
          Some games are skipped on my pi4 when trying to select them.
          Looked at the .png files, could be that some new files are too big in size.
          Can you have a look ?

          Edit :
          I did a test with kbottum9.png.
          Reducing the resolution to 658x1080 worked for me.

            Sorry for that. My mistake. I forgot to reduce my pngs.

            I'll do that tomorrow. Good catch!

              Done on the drive.

              For konamih I used 658x1080 and for tigerh, 1280x1080 as the other files. It should work now.

                Great !, I will update asap ;-)

                I added "DECO cassette system" to the categories in my script.
                Now busy with the gamelist.
                The retroscraper of @kiro already did a great job, only a few are missing.

                Btw. I did a PR for cygnus-blue-flames.

                    Just updating didn't work for me.
                    I had to physically remove the big files in order to update.
                    Now it's working !

                      Everything seems to be fine on the disk. Is this a problem with how the script replaces existing files or is it on my end?

                        I think we had this problem earlier.
                        You probably have to delete the older file first before updating.
                        Then the updated files should be recognised.

                          Added deco_cassette gamelists to my gamelists mirror.
                          Only a few thing are missing.
                          Will have to look at that later.

                            Yeah, now I remember. I'll do that

                                I tried again to update on my mini laptop as I have still the old files on them.
                                Didn't work.

                                Will try again tomorrow just to see if it works then, assuming it's something with the datestamp again.

                                Edit :
                                It worked today, seems to be due to the time-difference Canada/The Netherlands.

                                  I recently updated Mess/Mame and decided to see if i gained any M5

                                  With M5 I gained 11 more to work...
                                  but oddly, I lost 3 to loading with just a black screen with no run command errors.
                                  is this common to happen?

                                  I also do get some others to load but only to a black screen with no error log

                                    A bit off topic but I actually don't know.
                                    Though a commit has been made for mame250/251 :
                                    https://github.com/mamedev/mame/search?q=m5&type=commits
                                    (could be the reason)
                                    You should ask this question on this forum :

                                      not sure is these are useful (my scrapes i made) for odd systems as i go using mame/mess when they don't exist
                                      they aren't perfect and i don't do video with but i always feel better some scrapes then none at all
                                      here are a few if you want them

                                      I'll have to sort through and see if there are others if anyone's interested in them
                                      hope this is some help

                                      @Retrodade, sorry for necroing this thread, but I just today learned about the Gameking and would love to add it to my build, but none of the regular scraping sources have it. My searches dug up this thread and your mega link, and I'd love to have what you uploaded but it is gone now. If you happen to see this, any chance you can re-up it or share it with me some other way? Thanks either way!

                                            Same for me. Game King 3 is also supported by MAME. I'll create those 2 systems for Cygnus blue flammes theme
