fandecine Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Hi there. I just installed LaunchBox and uploaded Gamecube games. The names match the "Launchbox GAMES DATABASE" but it doesn't find the metadata. Any reason why? It works fine for Wii U. Thx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Try deleting one letter from the title and running the search. Without the full name it should pull up all names from platforms similar to it. I just tested (I removed the platform name so it would search all platforms) and LB is finding the game just fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What did you put in your search to get those options? I tried different ways but still the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fandecine Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 Tried: Ultimate Spider-Ma, Ultimate, Spider-Man... Same... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 Try forcing an update to your LB's GamesDB Metadata. In LB >Tools >Download >Force Update Games DB Metadata. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fandecine Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 Same. Is it because I have the Free version? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted June 30, 2023 Share Posted June 30, 2023 No. Free versions pull metadata as well. Try setting the platform and then just typing in Ultimate and clicking the Search Metadata button. Do you have the "Scrape As Field" for your Gamecube platform set to "Nintendo Gamecube"? Right click the platform name and edit it/ On the details page the scrape as is the second field.

fandecine Posted June 30, 2023 Author Share Posted June 30, 2023 It worked! Scrape field was correct but I put only Ultimate. However, if I need to load a batch of games... Thx. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
