WN UAE Loader

[denoiser]

Hello , Can anyone help , I´m using WINUAE Loader with the Amiga Gamebase and have already converted the Titles, and the Box ( Fronts and Backs ) for Using in Gameex. It works fine.

When I want to convert the Screenshots 1 , Screenshots 2 , WinUAE Loader starts to work just for one Second , the Directories are created , but there are no converted Screenshots in the Gamebase Directory. I use the Screenshot Archive from the Elowar Homepage and don´´t know the reason.

Best Regards , denoiser

Just to be sure you have to use the following files

Titlescreen/Screenshot 1/Screenshot 2: http://gbamiga.elowar.com/files/@Main/Game...ete%20v1.5).zip

Box Art Front/Box Art Back: http://gbamiga.elowar.com/files/Extras/Gam...ete%20v1.5).zip

Also note that when you extract them, leave them inside their alphabetical folders.

thank you headkaze , I have downloaded this file extract it and try it again. It starts to work converting the Screenshots to gameex format. But I miss many Screenshots from the Source Folder. Only 1536 Files were converted and I have about 3000 Games in the Amiga Gamebase. I´m going mad. I have tried it again for Screenshots 1 and Screenshots 2 and it shows the same result, only 1530 Screenshots. I know that your tool only takes one Screenshot for a single game , but many games have no screenshots for example 1st Division Manager. When I take a look in the Source Folder I see the Snap for this game.

After Downloading the Screenshot Pack , I only Extract them and leave the folders unchanged.

Do you know whats´s wrong ?

There definately should be one for 1st Division Manager

Your source folder should contain:

0\1st_Division_Manager.png (Titlescreen)

0\1st_Division_Manager_1.png (Screenshot 1)

0\1st_Division_Manager_2.png (Screenshot 2)

I count the following extracted artwork

Titlescreens: 2533 GameBase, 1735 SPS, 1668 WHDLoad

Screenshot 1: 2533 GameBase, 1324 SPS, 1395 WHDLoad

Screenshot 2: 2532 GameBase, 1315 SPS, 1390 WHDLoad

Also check your WinUAELoader\Data\WinUAELoader.log file for any errors after you attempt to convert a set of graphics. Is there any error in there?

hello again , thanks for your help

I got it working and now I have the same results

I think my mistake was to create a gamelist in WINUAE LOADER before start converting artworks ?

When I do this, the artwork tool won´t start working.

For my understanding that I do the thing in the right order , my Way is the following :

1. After starting WINUAE Loader, I point to my Gamebase Amiga.mdb, then point to my Game Rom Folder , Create a Gamelist and starts to convert. I don´t own any WHD Load or SPS Games just adf from the Tosec Collection

Does Gameex support a second Screenshot or a Box Art Back ?

Not sure what caused your problem there, the order you do things shouldn't matter at all.

I have my artwork setup as follows

- Snap/Video -> Screenshot 1

- Title Snap -> Titlescreen

- Box Art -> Box Art Front

- Cartridge Art -> Box Art Back

thank you for your patience and hints. Can you tell me how many Box Art do you have in your Destination Folder.

When I take a look in your gamebase.map there are about 2560 Games (Adf). On which Database are they based off?

I mean , is this the hall Amiga Game Collection with all games based on the actually Gamebase Amiga V1.5 ?

I miss some games in this map file, Do I have to add this missing games for myself, or is there maybe a easier way to handle this ?
