[Solved] The new Skyscraper package doesnt return results

[m33ts4k0z]

Hello.

I created a new thread since this is a new issue.

I just had a convo on discord with the screenscraper guys and it looks that version 3.9.1 of the bundled Skyscraper is broken.
This command yields no results on 3.9.1, but it does work on 3.7.7. Using Ubuntu Mantic 23.10.

Skyscraper -p switch -s screenscraper --query "romnom=Super%20Mario%20Odyssey%20(World)%20(En,Ja,Fr,De,Es,It,Nl,Zh,Ru)%20(Rev%203).xci" /home/retropie/RetroPie/roms/switch/super-mario-odyssey.xci

Running the command like this:

Skyscraper -p switch -s screenscraper "/home/retropie/RetroPie/roms/switch/Super Mario Odyssey.xci"

Doesnt work either on 3.9.1 but no issues on 3.7.7.

A digit got lost in the platforms_id.csv file FWIW.

Locate this line in your ~/.skyscraper/platforms_id.csv and change the line from

switch,22,203,4971

to:

switch,225,203,4971

(note the value 225 instead of 22)

If you run /opt/retropie/supplementary/skyscraper/peas_and_idmap_verify.py it should now correctly state

...
    ├── switch
    │   ├── ScrS  225: Switch
    │   ├── Moby  203: Nintendo Switch
    │   └── TGDB 4971: Nintendo Switch
...

That should do it.

Edit: Reapplied the release tag 3.9.1 to include this change. Will be remediated in the repo with v3.9.2.

Thanks indeed correcting the platform id solves the issue. I noticed another issue with thegamesdb but this is present on all Skyscraper versions so I will start another thread. Keep up the great work guys.
