Solved SCUMMVM structure

[pmroyo]

@abunille So, universal XML scrapper won´t work by this way? only the internal scrapper?

[abunille]

@pmroyo

Yes, how I know UXS not work with folder at the moment.
With the internal scraper you also can scrape via ScreenScraper

[pmroyo]

@abunille I am trying to scrape the games with the internal tool but is not working, it shows the following message:

I have tried scraping the scummvm and with every single game, but the result is the same. Do you know what I am doing wrong?

@pmroyo

Have you tried with shortname? (monkey.scummvm)
On your screenshot you don't use it.

[lmerckx]

If you use Screenscrapper as scrapper (even internal), you have to know that very few ScummVM and Dosbox games are known.

Check here: https://www.screenscraper.fr/gamesinfos.php?plateforme=123&alpha=0&numpage=0
(only 2 games)

Prefer GamesDB for these two systems.

For me, it works !

@lmerckx

Thats not right.
Your link goes to alphabet #
For Monkey Island as example check here
https://www.screenscraper.fr/gameinfos.php?plateforme=123&gameid=99855

@abunille Done. My mistake was use the long name in the folder and the short name in the file, instead of using short name in both.
Thank you very much

@pmroyo

You are welcome

Oups ... sorry for my mistake.

[lmerckx]

Stupid question : should'nt we add long names as ROM too ?

It will allow to recognize directories with complete game name too ...

@lmerckx said in SCUMMVM structure:

Oups ... sorry for my mistake.

No problem dude, all good

The Question with long name is not stupid. I think it can be a good idea.
But I don't know if it works.
I will check that.

@lmerckx This might as well be a problem on the ScreenScraper API, not just how games are referenced.
