g2mXagent Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 How to manually assign game ID in LaunchBox? I have a SNES ROM called "Front Mission 2-Gun Hazard (J).smc", but it was not recognized when it was imported. Although there is "Front Mission: Gun Hazard" in the database https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/details/3452 Now, how can I manually connect my collection to the correct database ID?

Scotsman Posted January 9, 2022 Share Posted January 9, 2022 Right click the game and edit the metadata/media and in the title field type front mission gun hazard. Then click search for metadata and the game should show up. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g2mXagent Posted January 10, 2022 Author Share Posted January 10, 2022 (edited) @IainSA it works! thank you. but I find a serious problem. the game id and the address id is not match. I hope that the design of the database can be like IMDB, the URL ID is matched the game ID. Edited January 10, 2022 by g2mXagent Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When you click it, where does your browser open up to? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
g2mXagent Posted January 10, 2022 Author Share Posted January 10, 2022 @JoeViking245 the hyperlink is correct. I also know that the two IDs are different things. I'm just suggesting a website design idea, like the movie database at imdb.com. if you open a movie page with id tt13556320, its URL is https://www.imdb.com/title/tt13556320/ , and they match. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
