Hifihedgehog Posted May 1, 2021 Share Posted May 1, 2021 (edited) There is a bug when LaunchBox is automatically resolving the game title from the filename in a specific subset of NKit-packed (.nkit.gcz) GameCube games. The common thread between all of these files is the following: * More than one set of parentheses in the file name proceeding the .nkit.gcz file extension. Here are examples of game titles that already resolve correctly: "FIFA Soccer 2004 (USA).nkit.gcz" -> "FIFA Soccer 2004" "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets (USA).nkit.gcz" -> "Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets" Here are some examples of game titles that do not resolve correctly due to the aforementioned bug: "FIFA Soccer 2005 (USA) (En,Es).nkit.gcz" -> "FIFA Soccer 2005 .nkit" "Harry Potter - Quidditch World Cup (USA) (En,Fr,Es).nkit.gcz" -> "Harry Potter - Quidditch World Cup .nkit" As you can see, this stray ".nkit" portion of the file extension is not lobbed off or truncated properly. This is likely due to there being an additional set of parentheses throwing off the resolution of the game title. So I suppose the handling of more than one parenthesized set of information with .nkit.gcz files is the problem here. I hope this helps, @Jason Carr!
