[SOFT] GameList Editor

great idea. is there any chance that you can also display the filename somehwere? make is it easier to identify wrongly scraped games. e.g. I have a Mega Drive Protoype rom that is called Beyond Zero Tolerance and a rom that is called Zero Tolerance. both were scraped as Zero Toloerance and I cannot say which one is which in emulation station as well as in your tool, unless i look up the xml file manually or the downloaded_images folder.

@gmgman

Hi, and thanks.
Yes I can do this pretty easily, I already have the rom name stored so the only problem is to find a place in the GUI to display it ^^
I'm gonna try and do it now, will tell when it's ready.

@NeeeeB thanks for sharing this soft. I will try to do corret name of some games was wrong.

[gmgman]

@neeeeb that's be super cool. I also use subfolders, maybe you can display the path of the rom as well, like snes/subfolder/game.zip, below the list box where you have all the titles. thanks very much for this tool, I was looking for something like that.

@dam

Thanks.
and again, I am still looking for people to help me translate it to other languages :

@gmgman
Subfolders ? I can't say for sure it will work, didn't think of that case when I developed it.
I would be curious to have your feedback about this

[gmgman]

@neeeeb yes i have subfolders, e.g. to categorize roms like

snes/#hacks/
snes/#japan/
snes/#translated/
etc.
I put '#' as the first character so that the folders appear on top in emulationstation. your tool scans those subfolders already, i see the games in the list box but it would help if the path + filename were displayed too somewhere in your tool.

@gmgman

Nice !! well I've implemented your request, just let me have diner and I'll upload a new version

EDIT:

Ok, v0.9.2-beta released with the request from @gmgman implemented !!

https://github.com/NeeeeB/GameList_Editor/releases/tag/v0.9.2-beta

[gmgman]

awesome, you're a great guy thanks

one more thing I can think of as a improvement would be a seach function or some sort of that, where you type some letters and it will filter the list box depending on what you just typed. maybe an idea for the futire. thanks again for this tool and your implementation buddy

[NeeeeB]

@gmgman

A search function is on the TODO list
For the moment, when the focus is on the game list, typing one letter will bring the list to the first game with this letter

[NeeeeB]

New version available !!!

[gmgman]

You're pretty fast man
If your tool would also be able to scroble scrape somehow that be pretty d**n cool. But i'm fine with what it is, it really helps cleaning the gamelist.

edit: scrape, not scrobble lol

@neeeeb I don't know if this is in the feature list as this isn't mentioned but it would be cool if the tool would be able to detect "orphan" gamelist entries (with no corresponding existing game) and propose to delete them

@voljega

You mean, the game is in the gamelist but not "physically" in the folder ?
If so, that should not be too difficult to implement, I may even be able to do this today.

@gmgman

I have a bit of free time at the moment, so I try to be as effective as possible with my app lol
What do you mean by scroble btw ?

Yes exactly that

[NeeeeB]

@voljega

On peut causer français aussi lol
Je vais voir ce que je peux faire, mais ça ne devrait pas poser de souci du tout.
J'ajouterai ça dans les options "système".

@gmgman

Scraping is on the TODO list, but in a second time.
I will add the possibility to scrape missing pictures, and also send to Screenscraper if you choose a picture from your drive
But that will come in a future version.

[voljega]

@neeeeb yep c'est pas compliqué

[voljega]

@neeeeb eh beh c'est rapide ! je vais pas tester tout de suite par contre, je suis en train de coder un truc de mon côté...

[NeeeeB]

@voljega

Disons que j'ai pas trop mal pensé le truc du début donc ajouter ce genre d'option est relativement facile.
J'ai ajouté également "orphelins" dans la liste des filtres, pour les visualiser facilement.
