Mr. RetroLust replied to Jason Carr's topic in News and Updates
And thank you for moderating brother! Your question did provoke a thought for me though; When I upload a flyer with for example german text I will (if I dont forget) mark it as german, even though the game itself doesnt have to be german so it can be a bit unclear indeed. The whole arcade section can be a bit confusing, I saw someone reject a box for Astro Boy (if I remember the name right) as it had Wily Tower as a title on the front and spine but in fact it was one of many different region names so the box was for the correct entry. Most confusing one is Bomberman, bomberman in japan, dynablaster in europe and atomic punk in the US. I just hope the mods will trust my homework lol -

I have the same sad feeling and the knowledge now how much work has gone into it, but didn't want to be seen as a softy about it lol They will still be available through Emumovies, so all work is not lost and still a choice to be have -

Hey pal! Thanks for the tips, I am hesitant to use the plugin as I saw too many duplicate images or mistakes that where made with it, on the other hand I haven't tried it myself yet, do you need to use the plugin with a complete library of the games in your launchbox or can you use it directly with a folder of images and the website database? I also have missing flyers and other artwork to upload. I have deleted the complete mame list I had as I thought I wouldn't have to use it anymore lol so I only have my own collection left which is a trimmed collection so not sure I can use the plugin. The way I do it now is really secure as I see now that the names of the database entries are quite different from the image filenames many times as well, needing human brain to sort them instead of Ai/plugin/script so to speak, though it will take me quite some time to do it this way. Is that possible @Jason Carr to remove his boxes or would you also delete any other image in the 3D box category that way? I don't mind overwriting the boxes from now on, if the moderators are ok with it though. Thanks again for everything @Robin55! -

Glad you like them bro Got 5.099 images left to manually upload lol it's an insane hobby we have. When there are multiple images for one category and/or region they will simply have a -01 and -02 etc. behind the image filename when scraped to your pc, launchbox/bigbox then randomizes the images to show. -
Thanks bro, glad you like

Thanks bro! As long as the flyer/fanart looks decent enough it should blend in with the rest of the boxes as the photoshop action file takes care of the specific glassy look. Getting the missing game logos is the harder part but they are small on the spine so they should look good either way even if they are roughly cut or lower res. Almost all company logos are included and ready to use. If anything is unclear about the tutorial or process please let me know and I hope you will share your results.

Version 2.0 Added the last pack: "TUVWXYZ - UPDATE PACK" Finally done! ? (what a relief lol) I'll prepare and package the tools and templates used upcoming days, I'll have to redo some scripts/actions to make them standalone so to speak. NOTE! : After installing the images you have to select all (or any alphabetical range) arcade games (CTRL+A = select all) go to Tools and click 'Refresh selected images', let it load and the games should now display the right 3D boxes.

Have you checked Emumovies?

Damn bro, thats a pain Maybe a good idea to backup your config files once you got it running like you want again, and maybe set it to readonly so it wont change.

Good to hear bro, thanks
