Hello, may I ask where I can download a tool called - MAME Set Rebuilder? - legit of course.
There is a link to a forum that one cannot use because I do not speak Italian. :)

Use Google Translate or chatGPT, no upload on external forum, register to retropie-italia.it

The original website is retropie-italia.it

@nemo93 mapquest directions said in Gridmonger - a cRPG mapping tool :

Gridmonger is a free and open-source dungeon mapping tool to replace pencil-and-paper mapping when playing old-school computer role-playing games (cRPGs). It aims to do one thing and do it well:

Cool, nice work! I'll be sure to give this a go next time I play something mappable.

@NIGHTKILLER05 I would say any game that has a lot of patches would be best. Maybe some of the Mario or Pokémon games. If it is just a single patch you want to use for a game, it's probably not worth it. Especially if it's a translation or a color patch for a GameBoy title or something like that.

@sleve_mcdichael @mitu @YFZdude Thank you guys for all your kindly help, check this out:

I don't have a skyscraper folder inside /opt/retropie/supplementary/skyscraper folder:

Thats a little weird, but then I saw the las post from @sleve_mcdichael about execute the command with "./" and worked like a charm:

Release MAME / Retroarch bezel / overlays tool v4.0 · cosmo0/mame-retroarch-bezel-converter (github.com)

@mitu Thanks I will look into that.

@EctoOne Oh, that's a real bummer. I thought the package with the "-Linux-64Bit.tar.gz" in the filename from the releases page, which is build with PyInstaller would solve issues like that in the future. I get a fontconfig error with it on my current system and it can be a local issue on my machine. Not very encouraging, but maybe you could try to run that.

But well, it contains binary files, so from security standpoint I can understand when you don't even want try that.

@thelostsoul said in Gamelist Addon - an assist tool to manually add new game entries:

About the automation, yes I want that implemented in the main app too someday. Just in case you did miss it,

I actually did miss it. Thanks for the directions.

@Fabioborsoi said in RetroStats Web Application:

Weekly Activity works for a while ( first 6 days ) then disappear, if i check the /schedule it seam populated properly.

I see what you mean. There was an indexing error, not sure if or when I might have introduced it. Should be fixed in 0.0.7.

Edit: I rushed the fix and it is not complete in 0.0.7, 0.0.8 should work.

@KimDb said in [TOOL] RPi ES Kids Mode Toggler:

@mitu, I've also provided a special build (the Mitu Build) with the feature you requested.

Thank you, but you shouldn't have - it was merely a suggestion. It's less likely I'd use it, since I don't have a windows machine at home - where my Pi is sitting. Thanks anyway !

No problem. May be good though for anyone who reads this(, has Windows) and likes the idea as well.

After more than two years, I finally found the motivation to work on this project again and improve it.

Download: Release ArcadeManager v25.1

New features

The biggest new feature is the ability to check a romset against a DAT file, and to transform a romset into a non-merged one. Several common DAT files are provided: MAME for the latest Batocera and Recalbox versions, MAME2003 in different flavors, and FBNeo. Merged and split sets are not supported, as they make no sense in the context of this tool.

Other new features:

Completely rewrote the "top x" lists in the wizard and added some new selections Added some new games lists in the wizard (4 buttons, vertical, multiplayer vs/coop) Before copying files listed in a CSV, the app now lists the missing ones Added the possibility to help translate using Weblate New translation in Swedish - please contribute to other languages if you can, it's not hard! A new console application has been created, in case you want to automate things In the latest MAME versions some files (other than samples and bioses) are needed, they are now copied along with the roms Fixed bugs The Windows zip file version launches the debug window upon starting Crash when a CHD file already exists 404 link in the help section Encoding error in some JS error messages Path with "+" doesn't work

Thanks guys! Notepad++ did the trick for me. Most likely the most essential piece of software for windows for me :)
