Lordmonkus Posted July 22, 2021 Share Posted July 22, 2021 Amiga tends to be very tough to scrape due to the fact that the disk images and whdloads found online have very funky naming that is not friendly to the scraper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AmigaTronik Posted July 23, 2021 Author Share Posted July 23, 2021 Well I had no problem when I first registered & used Lunchbox 6 years ago. The LB Database scraped every Amiga game Image/Artwork Using WHDload ROMs. I reinstalled LB Yesterday for the first time in 4 years & came across this problem. I'm guessing the Database has changed since then for the worse, not the better. ? AmigaTronik Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AmigaTronik The database has only improved since you last used it, your roms must be really badly named to not scrape anything at all, do you have any examples of games naming that didnt scrape correctly? I only have 285 Amiga games myself, and i didnt have any issues scraping them, but my roms are just named as the game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hi Neil, Yes the Roms/Games are badly named. i.e "CannonFodder_v2.0_0860" but it scraped the image for that game. I'm using the same WHDload rom set that I used 5 years that worked. Just scraped again using EMUmovies, Had more luck this time, Scraped about half out of 2,300. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
