anguna.nds not recognized #1350

Open fekir opened 1 year ago

fekir commented 1 year ago

I've downloaded the rom from the official website (http://www.tolberts.net/anguna/), and double-checked the crc value on https://datomatic.no-intro.org/index.php?page=show_record&s=28&n=z386 (they match).

Still when scanning the folder (or event the single file), retroarch does not recognize the game.

I can load it manually and play it.

Is the game missing from the database?

RobLoach commented 1 year ago

The file is not in the database, no. We usually just index from No-Intro, but happy to have indie representation. To add it to the database, we'll need a Nintendo - Nintendo DS.dat file in the dat folder with the CRC, and entry name.

This part confuses me.

anguna appears on No-Intro: https://datomatic.no-intro.org/index.php?page=show_record&s=28&n=z386

Hmm, good find. It could be that z**** entries are ignored in the script? Let me check.

fekir commented 1 year ago

For what is worth, I have tried another rom, same issue (this time on snes)

the last super, downloaded from https://drludos.itch.io/the-last-super, appears on no-intro ( https://datomatic.no-intro.org/index.php?page=show_record&s=49&n=4215) and crc32 is the correct one, but retroarch does not find it, even if it has no issue executing the game.

@RobLoach ping, sorry for bothering I wanted to know if there is anything I can do.

What are z**** entries?

It's not that indie games are completely ignored, for example the release or anguna for the game boy advance is recognized.
