@MotoGp Ver 1.007 Fixes the Generate Xml bug reported above.

@bananapi761 the -dev package is always a source install, otherwise the package would not the latest version.

@WeatherPi Maybe you could host your scripts on GitHub and hopefully the community would contributes and help you add new features. Might be better to have short games that take a couple hours to finish unlocked for a day but maybe longer RPG style games should be unlocked for several days? I'm not sure if your friend likes to focus on RPG's to finish them or if he plays RPG's at all. Maybe RPG's only unlocked over the weekend and have a small handful of unique shorter games unlock each weekday (like different ones every weekday)?

Thanks! That was the case. Problem solved.

Hi All, New version of ARRM available : 1.7.7.0 (10/05/2019) Automatic association of templates by system via the template selection menu. You no longer need to edit the template_association.txt file manually.    Operating mode: select a single system, then click on 'Show Mix Model' to select the desired template, then confirm.    The system / template association will be saved in the template_association.txt file    If you wish to modify the default template: Do not select any system and click on 'Choose Mix Template', then confirm. Taking into account the new Amiga tree on Batocera 5.23; Amiga systems are no longer under the Amiga directory, but in the amiga, amigacdtv and amigacd32 directories directly in roms.

close emulation station before editing it

@sohailoo Thanks for the info. For metadata, you will need to install Selph's scraper from the setup script. Once done, then exit ES and run the following command from the terminal or a SSH session: cd RetroPie/roms/psx /opt/retropie/supplementary/scraper/scraper -img_format=png -image_dir="./boxart" -image_path="./boxart" -download_images=false -image_suffix="" -marquee_dir="./wheel" -marquee_path="./wheel" -download_marquees=false -marquee_suffix="" -video_dir="./snap" -video_path="./snap" -download_videos=false -video_suffix="" The above is an example for creating a gamelist XML for Playstation (PSX). For the other systems, the working directory needs to be changed with a command such as cd ../snes/ before running the scraper. For arcade roms, remember to include the -mame parameter in the scraper command.

i just noticed the same issue occurs with sega cd and sg-1000

Sorry I've got email notifications turned on but I don't seem to be getting them so I assumed nobody replied, only now I went on the forums and saw notifications in the top-right.

@BobHarris that's most likely the issue then. I'll have to search for it myself then, as it is also one of my favorites when i was able to play.

Ok, I seem to have figured this out by installing WinSCP, navigating to the files listed in the error messages, deleting them, and then running the scraper to regenerate the files. Now to sort out the bluetooth issue....

Wow, look how late I am! I can confirm that yes, you can use your pre-scraped art from Recalbox on Retropie. It's pretty much the same as using Skyscraper (I think, though I've only used that on my desktop PC). As long as you use the same roms, images and gamelists you're good to go. Well, it all worked for me anyway, and saves A LOT of extra scraping. :-)

@sexbeer Awesome, I'm glad it worked out.

I'm not at the pi at the moment (left the house after making this post) but I can definitely confirm that it erases what I added without appending another. The game/console I have been using as an example is Game Boy. With the entry for Super Mario Land, the scraped (using default ES scraper) data does not generate a <players> tag in the metadata entry within the gamelist.xml. When I launched the game and played it after adding one, the data saved added a last played date and times played entry, and erased/overwrote the <players>1</players> tag that I added (and saved) prior to launching and playing. I confirmed by comparing to other titles that my line of xml was formatted exactly as others were that scraped with a <players> tag, but notably those that obtained that data from thegamesdb.net via the built in scraper and remained undisturbed are always greater than 1, which makes me suspect that ES reads a not present/defined value of players as 1? Not sure why it would erase or overwrite it though.

Just found it before posting something very similar! In my opinion, It would be great an option to delete both rom and entry. Because I have ckecked "parse game list only", and this, not only hide roms that are not scrapped, but also show roms that doesn't really exist, but still have an entry in gamelist file.

Yeh its been mega hot in the UK especially here. I must admit, I get most of my own personal work done when its colder haha :P

yes that I know @DougA, but I do not wish to launch the games every time but the fire via Notepad ++ @mitu I'll try to see what I can do with emulators.cfg to scale my games
