13.19 update is broken

[xokia]

3.19 hosed my setup. Don't know why its putting the word file in the path.

Also would be nice if we had an option to roll back instead of having to ask for a old release. Can I get 3.18 please?

 

The specified path is invalid. : '\\HOME-SERVER\pool5\games\LaunchBox\file:\Z:\Arcade\SNK Neo Geo Pocket Color\roms'.

I can confirm this is an issue with 3.19 luckily I still had the 3.18 laying on my server. Re-installed and all works again

Hi there,

Thanks for the report here. Right off the bat, that file path definitely seems a bit off. Can you confirm.

- Go to Tools > Manage > Platforms, and then into your Neo Geo Pocket Color platform.

- Under the Folders tab, what is the path listed there for Game

Can you also take a single pocket color game and edit it's metadata, go to Launching and then provide an example of what the ROM File path looks like?

Finally, can you confirm:

- Does this error occur for other platforms, or just Neo Geo Pocket Color
- Can you confirm where these affected games are stored? It looks like it's some sort of network or external drive.

Please let us know and we'll try to get you sorted

I already switched back to 3.18. This happens when I try to add roms. I have a mapped drive called games. Z drive.

When I choose the importer is starts off in \\Home-server\balh\.blah instead of Z:\  even when I installed in Z:\ Then when I browse to Z:\path_to_roms it will insert the file path it has along with file:\ in the name prepended to the actual path

A very specific scenario that we are unable to reproduce on our end. Every attempt at importing either a UNC or mapped network drive is successful.

If you can zip up your Data folder and send it to me in a PM that may help track down what's going on in your build.

Sure I can upgrade again later this afternoon.

Just sent you both working 3.18 and broken 3.19 so you can diff

Only thing I can think of that was done different is 3.18 install file is sitting on  the network drive 3.19 install file is sitting on the local drive.

Both were pointed to the Launchbox directory on the network drive to install into.

Doing all that switching and rolling back now broke my MAME set importation. Hoping this can be resolved.

Try going to Tools > Download > Force Update Games Database (last option) and letting that run before doing any importing or scraping

upgrading to 3.19 fix the MAME set importer but import Rom is still broke. I Can not import ANY roms.
It inserts that "file:" into my path and everything breaks.

Also themes dont work under BigBox

Any progress?

3.18 is less broke then 3.19.  Themes work fine under 3.18.

Maybe its not correct to say 3.18 is broke. 3.18 worked 100% until upgrading to 3.19. After upgrading then reverting back to 3.18 MAME import is broke.

Let me know if there is anything I can do to assist in debug.

Here is what it looks like when I try and import a rom with 3.19. 

Same exact import with 3.18
