      Hello guys,

      I was wondering if i can scrape roms that have numbers infront of them like 2607-Zelda for GBA using Steven Selph's Scraper or does Steven Selph's Scraper scrape roms using rom hash ?. I read https://github.com/retropie/retropie-setup/wiki/scraper but doesnt mention anything regarding numbers infront of roms

      Thank you

        @awsd12 I haven't tried it myself with Steven's, but the ES Scraper did not find anything till I removed the number on one of my roms (A Final Fantasy VII rom for the NES, which should have produced some kind of result). If it doesn't work you can try to get a mass renamer for your roms specifically, or mass renamer like Métamorphose that might be easier to use then renaming them all individually.

          Yeah Doesn't really work, another thing I found out was most of Neo Geo games are in my FBA romset ahahahha so at this time I dont really care anymore its just to much of a hassle.

            @awsd12 Yes, it works based on hashes, so filename itself not important. Unless its MAME/Arcade games then the filename is important obviously.

                Is there a way I can make games more clear ?, like for example street fighter alpha 3 in FBA, it is a bit pixelated and I was wondering If I could make it more clear like 1080p or 720p clear ? or less pixelated

                Cheers

                  @awsd12 It's not too hard to do when using retro arch in the retroarch cfg for each system... Once you know how. Haven't tried it withFBA, but will have a look into it today and get back with my findings.

                          @yellowball About posting? In the bottom left is where you have to put your "tags" before it will let you post.

                            Sorry for digging up an ancient post because this is the only post that mention about tagging.

                            Some one mentioned "On the bottom left under the title and message it says "Enter tags here" or something similar." but I seriously cannot find any place to put the tag for a new post...?

                            Sorry. Am Retarded.
                            Mods please do not ban me.

                              @perseides The new post dialog has an input where you can add tags, it's at the bottom, where it says Enter tags here :
