@MJF Much obliged!

Like this I mean : For contrast in RED so you can see what I mean

That eagle looks like it has war damage in it. So it means parts of it are like missing and would be transparent when cut out. So it will be a weathered look. Is that what u want? Or do you want the war damage to be filled in?

@ZoneArc : Are u getting any further with importing your games?

@d8thstar : Any positive progess to report?

I saw several users already posting about this in other threads. But there has been no explanation as of yet on any of these posts/threads. well, I guess migrations to a new server and system do come with its little quirks.

my god. I don't hope thats true cause I have over 11 pages of logo's waiting to be approved🥶

hi mjf, see

see: probably also why edits to the gamesdb are left with status pending changes for the last 3-4 days.

Someone can improve on this. These grey parts in the year numbers are very annoying to work with.

Xbox controllers are good, but sometimes the triggers get the sticky button issue. Which were you click it and it doesn't pop out right away.

it's been three days and still all changes with 'pending' status. I think I will hold of for the time being till that gets fixed.

Glad to have helped!

And make sure your bat files are aptly named. Cause if u want to scrape metadata or artwork...your batfile name should reflect the name in the Games DB

you have to remember...u only need to import them once. So take your time doing so cause trying to handle everything all at once can cause headaches later on when certain things don't work as u planned/thought. After each import...test a few games. Test the windows bat files u imported Test the windows exe files u imported

I would take it step by step. First import your windows games. And first import the windows games who have bat files. Then import the windows games who run by their exe files. You can do this in steps cause in LB you can import windows games (or just select import rom files - single platform)...select 'Add files'...and go to your folder where your games are...in explorer right top search...just type *.bat Then explorer shows all bat files in the folder you selected. IF you select all bat files from your windows games with CTRL left click...you can easily add all of them. Next you can do the same but then search for *.exe Get that out of the way first. Then start focusing on MAME

also, is the fact I still have over 10 pages of 'pending changes' directly related with the issues described above on the gamesDB page?

Nice. Thanks for contributing it.

Where did u download the sega model 2 emulator from? Cause I also run sega model 2 but I don't need admin privileges, nor does the emulator.exe ask for it. Context : No, the Sega Model 2 emulator generally does not require elevated rights (like "Run as administrator") to run on most systems. It's a user-mode application and should function normally with standard user permissions. However, specific configurations or security settings on your computer might require administrator rights for certain actions, but this is not inherent to the emulator itself

requires elevation means the emulator2 is asking to be run with administrative privileges. Right click on your 'emulator2.exe' and select properties. Then go to to compatibility tab. It is the setting I highlighted in yellow. But before doing that. Ask first why that program needs those privileges. Most applications can (and should be able to) run without admin privileges.

Also...be sure to turn on logging to file in retroarch To enable logging in RetroArch, navigate to Settings > Logging and enable both Logging Verbosity and Log to File. Set the Frontend Logging Level and Core Logging Level to your desired verbosity (0 for debug, 1 for info, 2 for warnings, and 3 for errors). After enabling these settings, restart RetroArch and your logs will be written to the /retroarch/logs/ OR you could open your retroarch.cfg manually and find these lines log_to_file = "false" Change that to log_to_file = "true"

If you want all of these under one specific platform name and all games under that one specific platform are all using different settings for launching. I suppose that would be possible if you create several Mame emulators with each it's own launch commands and settings. (and after having imported them with shift or CTRL clicking all games, and mass-editing them to use a particular mame_custom emulator) But really, to ask LB devs to build something that is so custom and having to understand probably hundreds of different ways of doing things or what is defined in the csv. I don't think that is realistic. Maybe if you posted your csv here so that we might get a bit more context. Cause without that...it's a crapshoot guessing what you mean

I've added them. I don't see any reason not to add them.

No. That is allowed. Sorry, I was not paying full attention to the quote and didn't notice that indeed the mascot was not there on yours😄 Was too busy with several screens doing clear logo's. So, then all is OK.

On a side note...i was going through all commodore 64 games with missing logo's as you know (as I stated here in this thread). So this one I will take as an exception, and that you made all of your submissions to the games DB. Else we are doing double work and there is still a lot to do 😄
