Add Support for Nintendo Famicom Disc System #95

Closed ghost closed 8 years ago

ghost commented 8 years ago

could you please add support for Nintendo Favicon Disc System

https://github.com/RetroPie/RetroPie-Setup/pull/1531

thank you

ghost commented 8 years ago

I don't believe this is supported yet on the Retropie, which from your link appears to be the system you are interested in. Support should be easy though to add to the sselph scraper.

What is the file extension for the games?

ghost commented 8 years ago

hi, it's .fds, thank you

ghost commented 8 years ago

@InsecureSpike So it looks like this platform is on TheGamesDB so most titles are all set. Do you have this running on a RetroPie? If it works, I can help match the TGDB to file hashes. It's a pretty small set overall.

@sselph please add .FDS as a supported file extension

awesome, thsnks, we've just moved so no pi's set up yet, fingers crossed for Wednesday! then I can test thanks

ghost commented 8 years ago

ok, my pi is up & running, but still can't scrape .fds

cd /home/pi/RetroPie/roms/fds /opt/retropie/supplementary/scraper/scraper -use_gdb=true -use_nointro_name=true -add_not_found=true -use_filename=true -download_images=true

@InsecureSpike sorry about that. We are waiting for @sselph. Since it is summer time I'll bet he has a lot going on. He will pop on and add this extension soon I'd bet.

Once he adds this, I think we are all set to start building the TGDB to Hash links. That should only take a night or two to complete.

no need to be sorry, I was just relaying info back, mate thank you, for the heads up

ghost commented 8 years ago

I'm looking forward to doing this, it will be fun!

sselph commented 8 years ago

I added FDS support and the existing 75 thegamedb entries matched up to ~90 of the ~300 no-intro entries.

ghost commented 8 years ago

awesome thanks guys, I'll give it a go laters

ghost commented 8 years ago

do i have to update the scraper, for this to work?

sselph commented 8 years ago

Yes or since this is a simple hash you can do -extra_ext=".fds" to force it to look at those files.

ghost commented 8 years ago

awesome will try after work, thanks

ghost commented 8 years ago

that's awesome! thank you guys! all works well
