kyle25011193 Posted September 26, 2017 Posted September 26, 2017 Im collecting the images is it legal? To save the images to my computer to the launchbox app? Or save the images from the official website..i mean im collecting the images only..is it legal?
neil9000 Posted September 26, 2017 Posted September 26, 2017 I'm not 100% sure what you mean, but if its about having box images and such in Launchbox then that falls under fair use.
kyle25011193 Posted September 26, 2017 Author Posted September 26, 2017 But can i use launchbox as my game database/wishlist only without launching a games or playing a games in it? I mean i only download box art images to the database and use it as my game database and wishlist?
neil9000 Posted September 26, 2017 Posted September 26, 2017 You will need to add games to it for it to know which images to download, so unfortunately no.
kyle25011193 Posted September 26, 2017 Author Posted September 26, 2017 But under title tab then i search i can do it without a game? I can download images without a real game? Is it ok? To do it?
Retro808 Posted September 26, 2017 Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) If you are going to use Launchbox to house the images you need a file of some sort so it knows what to download for. You do not need the rom file you can just create a text file and save it as the name of the game. Without something at least like a text file Launchbox will not know what it needs to download. Then import the text file as if it were a rom and LB will search for metadata. Edited September 26, 2017 by Retro808
