      Hi all, I've been playing around with Skraper a bit and it appears that some of my games are getting an incorrect image. Some are due to the rom being from Japan instead of USA, so Skraper is actually doing the right thing, some are getting a mixed bag of pictures even though the rom is a European one.
      I'm playing around with the setting in Skraper to use a pre define list of regions to use in a specified order, in stead of trying to determine the region from the rom file. One thing I cannot find is a list of the region naming conventions used by Skraper or screenscraper.fr.
      'us' is USA of course
      'wor' is world
      'jp' is japan
      'au' is autralia
      what would be Europe, 'eu' or 'eur'?
      what is 'ss'?

        'ss' is the internal one used by ScreenScraper. So it's not a region per-se. I am actually not sure what they use it for.

        EDIT: I have pretty much all of them in my Skyscraper docs here. Skyscraper uses an internal region priority list as documented there. It will also auto-detect regions based on the filename. Also documented at that link.
