Deeper Cover Art Recursiveness to match Wiitdb.com #342

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Right now it looks first in boxart for full covers then looks in covers for 
flat covers.  I suggest Look in fullcoversHQ, then fullcovers, then covers... 
That way if a HQ is N/A it can atleast use a regular full cover... instead of 
just falling back to a flat cover.
I would rather keep my HQ and LQ covers seperate.
i mean WiiTDB already as all these files available .. why not use them?

I want to add.. I am not refering to DL'ing from the Web... I am actually 
talking about how wiiflow looks for the images on your HD....

For Better Clarity I will re explain

 I think it would be better if when wiiflow builds its image cache it looks in three steps instead of two.... Right now it looks first in the Boxart folder and if the game id is found creates cache image if not it moves onto the covers folder.  I think it would be better to use a three step process First look in BoxartHQ (High Quality Full Covers) if not found move to Boxart (Low Quality Full Covers) if still not found move to Covers (Flat Covers).... That way your HQ, LQ, and Flat covers are seperate. That way for people like me who don't have a connection to the wii can more easily keep our cover art to the highest quality.  With HQ and LQ full covers in just one folder, make it hard to know which covers needs a HQ

let the user specify multiple dirs for one type (boxcover, frontcover). the 
dirs specified first get precedence.
this way, every user can decide how much folders are needet.

In my Case, i would have 4 Folders for Boxcovers.
1. German HQ covers
2. English HQ covers
3. English MQ covers
4. English LQ Covers

that way, i dont have to mix up different qualities and different languages, 
but can prefere my native language if a cover is available.

Too much work for such a pointless change.
