Folderception

I'm getting back into Launchbox with the newest update and am trying to scrape my games. The only games it is finding are my m3u files, and I am guessing it is because they are in individual folders. PS1 folder - game.m3u folder - disc.chd and game.m3u file. Everything else is PS1 - game.chd. Is this why it is not picking them up or is there something else going on?

HI there, 

Thanks for the report here. I'm looking into a potential issue where .chd files don't appear to be getting recognised by the importer. Could you please walk me through your exactly import steps (including what files you have in the directory you're trying to import).

If it's easier, you can also share a screen recording, but I'm most curious to see what is the structure of the directory your trying to import, and which import steps your following to get them into LaunchBox. 

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

Cheers,

I apologize I did not see this sooner. Whatever was in the most recent update appears to have fixed the problem. At first, I thought it was a .chd issue, but noticed my Sega CD games (in .chd format) all imported properly. My SNES MSU1 games imported fine as well, as they were in folders. My other games in .sfc files that were not in individual folders were not recognized. That is why I started thinking it was a new "must be in folder" criteria.

I had surgery on the 20th and have spent the last two weeks on my Steam Deck recovering. Today was the first time I booted up Launchbox since the 20th. Updated to the current version, and it all appears to be good to go.
