This is a sample of one line from my csv file

0;Enigma;Unknown;Gamesemos/Enigma/enigma.slave;0;0;0;0

It's really odd. I loaded your csv from before and it recognized 120 out of 148 titles. I also made a test CSV file from your enigma entry and it recognized it correctly.

Have you got both the UM_Data_020222a and genres file in the folder?

I've had problems where it wasn't loading the database and gave me a sea of blue entries. I cleared the data, loaded the csv and fixed it again and it was fine.

I've attached a test version of v0.6a with some error catching in it. Give it a try.

Hi, no I don't have those files. In fact when I click to Fix Names, it connects to the FTP, the quickly flashes "Datafile up to date", but then opens an error that says "No database file found".

I don't think this in issue with my PC as I actually have a new laptop now, so nothing in common with the computer I was previously attempting to use it with.

I downloaded the newer version, but Windows Defender flipped out thinking there was a trojan in the file so I haven't extracted it yet.

Thanks for these handy tools mrv2k.

Thanks very much for this tool - the genre list is really useful.
I wanted something a little like MAME has in catver.ini, so I took the curated list and used that.

In the attached Excel file I made, I used that to filter the WHDLoad games I wanted, then put that in a batch file to copy them out so I can quickly select the ones I want based on Genre etc...

If there is an easier way to go about creating a custom list of games based on genre please let me know, but I think this will do in the meantime - at least I dont need to scroll through the Mahjong or Adult games anymore

Has iGame Tool stopped working?

Tried it today, and it errors to "No database file found".

Yeah. It needs an update. It'll take a few weeks as I'm releasing a workbench system next week.

Hi
Is possible add format gamelist.xml for emulationstation (in retropie/recalbox/batocera/emudeck)?
