KingCronecker Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 I have imported the Resident Evil: HD Remaster from Steam to Launchbox. It has been attributed to the 1996 Windows version of the game incorrectly. I cannot alter the details in the "edit metadata" section. I pressed the X to clear the ID and searched the box and all it came up with was the same result. The game is obviously in the Launchbox database. Searching in the box doesn't yield any other results no matter what I put in. Any help would be much appreciated. Thanks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Retro808 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 If you delete the LB DB Game ID in the metadata field and just enter "Resident" and search does bring up all version available for you to select the right one? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. It doesn't do that. I feel like I'm going crazy. It seems so simple. I don't know what I'm doing wrong. I've tried so many things. I've included a video of what happens.

Retro808 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Try going into LB tools and forcing a metadata update. Just tested using only “Resident” and it easily brought it up within the returned options. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingCronecker Posted August 31, 2023 Author Share Posted August 31, 2023 There does seem to be an error on the Launchbox games database. https://gamesdb.launchbox-app.com/games/details/10563-resident-evil This has the details of the 1996 and 2016 versions mixed up.

Retro808 Posted August 31, 2023 Share Posted August 31, 2023 Ah I completely missed the Steam part. Yeah the team is working on Steam metadata issues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm thinking this is unrelated to the main issue your thread here describes and what retro linked you to. that entry you linked looks to just be a human error, as in, someone had to actually submit that description in the "overview". otherwise at a glance the rest of the info appears correct. this is something that a DB user would need to submit for correction and get enough approvals, not that it would be an issue as it's clearly wrong. I just made the submission myself, so that will be corrected shortly when enough users give it the thumbs up! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KingCronecker Posted September 1, 2023 Author Share Posted September 1, 2023 Thanks for all your input, people. I'm new to launchbox so I'm just finding the ground with this great service. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
