What to do about ROMS that won't scrap?

BORIStheBLADE1

@screech Sorry but still have roms not getting scrapped. I wonder if I can get the roms in question HASH and compare it to the correct ones name?

screech

normally, if rom aren't found, you have a Missing.txt file ;)

Can you pastebin it here ? (I'll check and if your roms are OK, I will add them to the DB ;) )

@screech pastebin the rom or a log from your program?

screech

The _xxx_missing.txt file generated near your gamelist.xml (where xxx is the plateform you scrape)

@screech OK I isolated a couple to make it quick.'

OK ^^ but I need all of them ^^ if you want I add them to the DB (so you can associate them to the game to be able to scrape ^^)

@screech OK I need to run some errands so I'll be back.

thanks

@BORIStheBLADE1 The fist thing you should do is to have a good set to start with. Stay away from Good_Nes and the likes.

No-Intro, Tosec & trurip

Stay away from Redump for cd based system if you don't want to end up with multiple *.bin files that you have to rebuild or audio tracks seperated from the image to conserve space.

No-Intro for consoles.
Tosec for Computer systems
Trurip for cd based systems

OK.. Took me a few minutes to figure out what you were talking about. Now I get it.. Off to do some digging..

Thanks!!

OK I'm back. This is from a fresh good set from the suggested. This is a minus the non US roms, so basically all the US roms in the set.

Obviously I won't have all these roms but these aren't scraping.

Hi @BORIStheBLADE1 All the rom in your missing are already in the DB.
That's weird you can't scrape them.

Did you take the very last UXS version ? (the one from yesterday ?)

BORIStheBLADE1

@screech Yeah I looked on your site and seen the same..
I'm running 2.1.0.5 (64)

If you want me to run some different settings let me know.

@screech
Ran some N64 roms and have five that won't scrap. Ran it two different times with your new software.
