Scraper issue with Emumovies

[bloodlust]

I'm new to GameEx as I've been using Hyperspin for many years now. I saw GameEx and accident and decided to give it a try. My question is with using Emumovies to download info and artwork. I have installed and downloaded all my NES info and used Emumovies and the scraper to get all my info. However, When using GameEx all my roms show and work just fine but only about 50%or less show the actual artwork and info. Does the rom.nes have to match the exact name of the file from Emumovies in order for it to pickup in GameEx?? Some names are slightly off or they might be more of an abbreviation due to a very long name but Hyperspin and using Mobygames use to pick up everything just fine. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks for any help.

Welcome to GameEx!

The download svc utility handles all your artwork naming for you which is the best option. You can also set GameEx to look for a close match in the tweaks setting.

I did use the service utility included with the GameEx install and created an account with Emumovies so I could use the utility. I ran it while pointing to my NES roms folder as requested and then asked it to get all artwork. It did a fantastic job and seemed to grab everything. The issue isn't that, But it's when I'm actually in the GameEx frontend. I copied over all the info that the Emu utility downloaded and copied them to the "assets", "NES" folder then placed them in the correct folders from there ie. Boxes, Carts, Screens, etc. But again only about half actually are showing with my game files in GameEx. Glaring example, I have all the info for Super Mario Brothers 3 in all the correct Assets folders. But when I'm in GameEx and scroll to the Super Mario Brothers 3 rom it doesn't display anything. No description, No box art, No Cartridge etc. I'm not sure how to fix this.

What kind of sets are you using? No-Intro?

[bloodlust]

Box, Carts and Snaps is what I've been using.

[bloodlust]

I have went threw every NES rom I have and renamed word for word, space for space and dash for dash what Emumovies have there boxes, and carts titled. Still nothing, Won't pull them in even though they are there.

It should not do this in fact GameEx will even find artwork that is slightly off by default. Could you post your log please?

[Tom Speirs]

Note the last update did address the speed of matching artwork so maybe something is up with that on your system. Please post your log.

[bloodlust]

Where do I find the log?

@bloodlust - 2 things please. First, please use Attach Files option under More Reply Options on the bottom right when making a reply. Attached files are more friendly to those that may be on mobile devices reviewing your thread and log file are a devil to scroll through.

Second, you are presently using version 13.02. Please install the latest GameEx version (13.08) and provide a new log file and gameex..ini file if the issue is not resolved. If so, please let us know as well. Thanks!

[bloodlust]

How do you completely uninstall the game. If I uninstall the program all the GameEx folders and files are still in my c: even after it says it's been uninstalled. Does this matter?

[bloodlust]

I can't get all the programs to install, When I install the newest release it's not installing correctly.

[Draco1962]

I think you need to give us some more info to work with as what you are saying doesn't quite make sense. First, you were instructed to upgrade to the latest version. You can download the latest version and install it over your existing installation - no need to uninstall anything. If there was a need, you would have been instructed accordingly.

When you say "When I install the newest release it's not installing correctly." what exactly does this mean? Are you getting an error message during the install? Is it installing but not starting (again, is there an error message)?

[bloodlust]

I actually uninstalled the previous version as I've had troubles in the past with programs and drivers not "updating" correctly so I've always made it a habit to uninstall and re-install the latest version. So I removed the old version. I reinstalled the new version of GameEx and ran the basic config wizard as I had done before. When I select the emulators to install it doesn't set them up. When I go back to my C: where there was once a "Rom", "Emulator" and "Assests" folder they are now gone. The "GameEx" folder is there. Now before the emulators would be placed into the emulator and so on and so forth. Now, Back to the GameEx program itself. I'm not sure if this is due to the updated version or not but when in GameEx the only menu options that show are the following. At the top of the default theme I have, "Change View", "Back", "Home", and "Exit". However in the actual menu I now only show "Search", "Multimedia", "More Games & Programs", "News" and "Exit/Shutdown". Before I had Mame, Last Played, Favorites, Emulated Programs and it seemd many others. Is this correct with this new version? Why are my emulators now not showing in GameEx? This is what I mean when I don't think it's installing correctly as I'm now missing functions, folders, etc.

[Draco1962]

Not sure what to tell you as that is not a normal behavior and appears to be isolated to you at present. Going forward, I recommend installing over.

Please attach copies of your gameex.ini and log.txt files in reply to this thread (under More Reply Options).

@bloodlust - ...please use Attach Files option under More Reply Options on the bottom right when making a reply. Attached files are more friendly to those that may be on mobile devices reviewing your thread and log file are a devil to scroll through.

Using [ SPOILER ] Log Text Here [ /SPOILER ] (without the spaces) tags are even better, as my version of Tapatalk won't allow me to download from this forum for some reason.

That's me though, I just live here practically. LOL!

[bloodlust]

Sorry for not getting back sooner, Been out of town due to my job. I got home tonight and started up GameEx to begin playing with it again and discovered most of the stuff seems to be working now. Not sure why or how, I do have auto update on my Emumovies setup within GameEx maybe something happened there. There are still a few that I have the images for and have the .rom named exactly what Emu has there image files named and they still won't pickup. At least now that's only like 5% of them instead of the 95% earlier. I can live with this at least. I'm going to start testing GameEx now and see if I like it compared to Hyperspin. Thanks for the help and suggestions!!
