        @Acris, that worked like a charm, and all my games look normal except for my last step.  How do I get the image files to load?  Where do I place them, what must be the folder name etc?

            I tried like you said, renamed the folder from the original backup scrape from 3.3.0 from atari7800 to images and downloaded_images rebooted each time still wont see the images.

                @kryptto : Before v 3.0.0 Exemple SNES GAMELIST.XML

                 <game id="1046" source="theGamesDB.net">

                          <name>ActRaiser (USA)</name>
                          <desc>During game play the player fills the role of the 'Master', a powerful being awakened from a long sleep to find the civilizations of his former world in shambles. Through a combination of side-scrolling action stages and overhead-view "god" simulation mode the Master slowly rebuilds his world and regains his followers and powers. He is not referred to as a deity of any kind, and it is stated in the manual that he is mortal, and this is the reason he hid away from the demons he was fighting when he had just enough power to seal himself away and wait them out.</desc>

                      errr, just a thing : ES internal scrapper and fullscrape will download images in the downloaded_images folder. So, to keep it simple, better put all images in the downloaded_images folder

                      Former dev - Please reply with @substring so that i am notified when you answer me
