    Sorry everyone! LaunchBox made some changes which has seem to broken it, and with 13.19 and the switch to SQL this DEFINITELY will not work. Unfortunately, my full time job is an 8 day a week thing so any fixes will not come around until late spring/summer at the earliest. I'll revisit this on my break and will see about getting it working again. Until then, enjoy LaunchBox and your retro collections!!! GAME ON!!!

    Thank you for the feedback! Glad it works not just on my PC lol And I had to throw Leo in there somewhere! (It's the ADHD in me lol) That is an interesting idea. I could look into something like that. I've actually wanted to do a little more with my MAME collection. I'll see what plugins are available and see what I can build! Might be a little while out, but I'll add it to my plate. Cheers! 🍻

    Thanks, that was what I was going for, useful lol I could try a few things to get the window to resize vertically as well. Not sure about the navigation in LB while the plugin is open. Might be a limitation of Windows with this one. I can look into it though!

    I haven't been able to reproduce this issue. I might need to add some additional debug logging to catch it. I'll post an update in a few weeks, a little wrapped up with other things right now Maybe you could try it again, but just close the debug log window and click on the filter. The logging is still going in the background so you can click on the filter, then go into the debug log and grab the updates and post here again. Thanks for the help! Cheers!🍻

    Oh sorry! I meant the log from the plugin Click the little bug icon under the column selection. Replicate the issue (load up your data, then click on the filter icon in the header column), then copy the log into a txt again please! Thanks!

    Huh... lol Any chance you could copy the debuglog into a txt file and post it here? I'll take a look. Odd that it's the missing games, since that is direct from the xml. Thanks!

    I do believe the metadata file is updated when you open LaunchBox. When I first started at the beginning of September I think there was around 157000 titles pulled. By the time I was done a few days ago I was pulling in around 161000, and I never updated the metadata file specifically. And there's only a portion of the LaunchBox app I have access to. And I don't believe I saw that type of functionality exposed in the API. Hope that helps! Cheers!

    The day has come! v1.2 is out! Please check it out and let me know how it's working for you. I haven't touched C# in 12 years, so v1.2 is me trying to catch up on it lol Thanks again for all your feedback! This wouldn't have happened without that push. Happy gaming!

    Thanks again for the interest everyone! I've been diligently working on version 1.2 but it's turned out to be a bit more than I thought lol pretty much a complete remake with stability and performance in mind. It's about 97% ready! Although, I've been at 90% for about 4 days now lol Hang tight! This one will be a winner 🏆 🫠 Hopefully in the next few days 👍 Until then, cheers 🍻

    I've just about got it down. Couple of issues to cover still but v1.2 should be out tomorrow! Will be worth the wait. Processing well now without hanging the UI which should be beneficial especially on older machines. Stay tuned!

    Progress Update: I'm in final testing with the changes for v1.2. Gonna try to get it out before I pass out tonight, if not, should be ready for tomorrow! Thanks again everyone for the interest and feedback!

    v1.2 with better stability/performance is taking a little longer to put together than I thought (and I got a head cold right now 🤧lol). Should have it up for tomorrow 👍 Stay tuned!

    I could always scape the LaunchBox DB programatically and pull in the data on per game request. Maybe v1.3 🫠 lol

    If there was an API for the LaunchBox DB, I would query that as well. But yeah, I only have access to the local XML data (no access to the full dataset within the LaunchBox API from what I can see either). And I double checked my XML which has that game listed as "Released" as well. Can't really help the discrepancies, but I'll keep an eye out for changes where I might be able to sync that better. Not sure, but perhaps it's also a case where the XML data is actually more up-to-date than the website? Not sure, but thanks again for the feedback!

    Just a heads up for what's coming to v1.2: Optimization around the Metadata.xml which should: Reduce crashes Quicker table refreshing Enhanced stability, performance, and error detection "Region" data added to tables Column filtering Window Resizing (if I can get it working) Should be out in the next day or two 👍

    Filters and regions are on the way! I'm with you, I want to filter out by NA releases only and based on genre. Filters will help narrow down your lists. Optimization is also a priority (where I can, 400MB XML is a LOT of data lol). Thanks for the feedback!

    Thanks for the screenshot! I'll take a look tonight and post a fix as soon as I can. Cheers!

    That's awesome and no problem!! Thanks for letting me know 😁 It was probably with how I was capturing the file originally. Made some changes and beefed up the error checking. Let me know if you can think of anything else you might need with it. Cheers!
  20. AgentJohnnyP
    Ok, I've posted v1.1.2 now with enhanced error checking and better messaging for errors. Could you download the new version and if still not working, post another screenshot? It'll have more messaging now to help figure it out. Thanks!

    Thanks for the feedback everyone! I've updated the instructions and posted v1.1.2 with enhanced error checking around the Metadata.xml file. The code will search for the file in directory now to make sure it is there. I've also updated the error messaging so it should pop errors in the data table depending on what's happening. If you still have issues, please post a screenshot of the app with the error messaging in the data table and I'll get on it. Cheers! 🍻 Edit: If you do experience further issues, please click the "Export to CSV" for the Missing Games table and attach the .CSV to a post here. Thanks again and enjoy 😎

    The code is set so if the Metadata.xml file is not found it would post a different error in the table other than NoPlatformFound. Could be how I'm checking for the ScapeAs field for the platform. I'm working on some additional checks around that and the metadata right now, should have it posted shortly.Thanks again! One of those situations where it works in mine lol I'll nail it down. 👍
  23. AgentJohnnyP
    First off, I have to say "THANK YOU" for helping out and sending the feedback! I've uploaded version 1.1.1 now. I don't think it will fix the issue, but it should help understand what's happening (or not happening). There will be better error messaging that shows up in the Missing Games table if you could pass that along. Thanks again and let me know how it goes 👍
  24. AgentJohnnyP
    Hummm... I know I've seen with other plugins you have to right click on the file and go into the properties to unblock it? Let me know. I'll look into adding some checking to make sure the metadata file is loaded. Thanks for the feedback!
  25. AgentJohnnyP
    I finally got around to it, but I've released the web version of the Missing Games Checker as a full LaunchBox plugin! Haven't touched C# in about 10 years, but it was a fun project 😁 Check out the release in the Downloads section. Let me know if you find any issues or have any suggestions. Star Rating sorting is available as well with export functionality 👍
