so i look in the Ressources folder for the ServerList.txt and i saw it was missing so i unziped Ressources zip and placed it in there. i saw that once i ran the exe it disappeared. and yes i did try in admin mode.

any ideas what im doing wrong here

screech

strange, serverList is here : https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Universal-Rom-Tools/Universal-XML-Scraper/master/Ressources/ServerList.txt

It's not a DB issue, it's like UXS can't download it... Have you open your firewall ?
(FYI it's the first file it try to download... So...)

ExarKunIv

yes i have the firewall turned off. still same thing.
Im currently at work. so i think it is something they have set for the firewall here. :(

ill give it a shot when i get home.
thx for the help

ExarKunIv

my work around is i just install my VPN here, and im useing that. lol

DynaMight

The update looks good but it isnt scraping anywhere near as many games? The previous update scraped 896 out of 900 roms (Megadrive) however the latest update only managed to scrape 565? Exactly the same roms. I re-ran it and it did exactly the same amount.

Any ideas?

screech

@ExarKunIv So it's ok ?
@DynaMight try to check the "Unzip zip" checkbox in the general config ;)

DynaMight

@screech No I didnt, I did see the option but didnt understand what it actually meant. All the roms are zipped. I'll try it tomorrow, but what does the option do/mean?

Thanks

screech

Before the 2.2 UXS do this :

look for the file hash in the DB
if not found, look for the rom file name in the DB
if not found, unzip the zip file (if zip) and look for the first file hash in the DB
if not found, look for the first file name in the DB
if not found, look for the second file hash in the DB
if not found, look for the second file name in the DB
And so on till it found a match or do all the file in the zip...
It work nice on some case (specialy console)

But it's horrible on other system (like Mame :S)

the unzip part is now an option you can activate or deactivate...
By default it's not activated because of that and to make a quick scrape..
it's faster but less precise because if not found in the 2 first case (Hash and filename of the zip)... it don't look further...

mattrixk

Looking good @screech. I'll hopefully have a chance to check it out in a few hours. (and you release this just after I completed my custom Scrape and MIX Profiles too :D)

screech

really sorry @mattrixk ^^
MIX profiles haven't change so normally it's ok ;)
For your Scrape profiles, send me the "old one" I'll adapt them to the "new" format if you want ;)

mattrixk

@screech No worries mate. I'll didn't get the chance to play with it today, but I'll have a look soon. I only have about 30-40 minutes of free time a day (during lunch at work), so I have lots of stuff to fit in there, and some times l like to chill and watch YouTube or something.

screech

WARNING : I confirm that the Kill emulationstation don't work :(

So you need to stop it manually till I correct that tonight...

Squilenator

@screech for some reason the new version is not scraping Wheel Art into the mix profiles for Arcade Zoom, and the Standard 2img sometimes scraps the wheel and sometimes not, it happens a lot now.

SuperMagicom

@Squilenator It's not just that mix profile either. The mix scraping is totally fubar in the latest version. I opened an issue ticket on github the other day so hopefully he fixes it soon. Until then I've gone back to the previous version and everything scrapes normally.

SuperMagicom

@screech Latest versions, including today's update, throwing "AutoIt error: Subscript used on non-accessible variable" and crashing after boot screen. 2.1.0.4 is the newest version that will run normally. :(

yortdog

Loved using this tool !!!
For what it's worth, I've been using 2.1.0.6 perfectly for the last 2 weeks, and today is giving me the "Error: Subscript used on non-accessible variable" message, too. There have been no changes to my firewall settings.

Also, when I click on the link above (https://raw.githubusercontent.com/Universal-Rom-Tools/Universal-XML-Scraper/master/Ressources/ServerList.txt) it opens the browser with the text: "404: Not Found." Is that expected?

Thanks again for all your hard work. Amazing tool.

paradadf

@yortdog I can see that file wirhout any problems. Maybe a proxy issue?

yortdog

@paradadf : Not sure, but logged in this morning & it's working fine. Perhaps a localized network connection problem. I can see the text file now.

Sorry for the false alarm. The Universal_XML_Scraper64.exe program loads fine for me today.

SuperMagicom

@paradadf The file was not there when he posted it. I checked it myself.
