I'd like to make a donation for the effort - some for WiiTDB, some for ConfigUSB. I'd prefer to have a login account prior to donating (though it doesn't seem to be necessary). Any of the site PMs wanna comment on when signup will resume, or PM me some info. Thanx

Why is USBLoader GX telling me that the covers/disc images for the 6 games I just installed not located on the server, but they are in fact on the site?

It appears that the Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands (NTSC-U) has an incorrect Game ID attached to it in the database. It's currently RPWE41 but should be RPWZ41, which is currently identified as the PAL release. The PAL version should be SPXP41. I believe this is why the NTSC version is showing up as PAL under all the USB loaders.

you have set usbloader gx in withch language? what are the ID of the 6 games?

English.
The 6 games I just added and had to manually grab covers/discs for are SGIEA4, RMHE08, RPWZ41, SRME18, SAKENS, SK3EEB. No idea why GX didn't grab them for me.

Not possible as to why it's showing up as PAL in the loaders. The NTSC version says PAL with or without images, and it also says PAL in WBFS Manager. Regardless...

This one should be removed: http://wiitdb.com/Game/RPWE41
And this one changed to NTSC: http://wiitdb.com/Game/RPWZ41

Or delete the incorrect PAL and give the NTSC the proper ID.

It's showing up as PAL as the Z region has only been used on PAL games up until now. It is very weird (and in my opinion, highly suspicious) that the RPWZ version that people seem to have "somehow" is an NTSC copy.

It makes me wonder if it is actually a retail version at all. Perhaps it's a debug version they prepared and it got leaked instead of the retail version (which probably WILL be RPWE41). I'd really like to see a full cover that includes this ID on the cover art to solve the mystery...

I'd also love it if they were somehow tracking people playing the Z version (in the play log or otherwise) to put out some bans, Microsoft style

Z is for Australian version and Austrian games are PAL (only English). The European games is not out yet (19 or 20). To have the good ID just buy the game

OK, I assume you are meaning Austrian in both cases there... And the game that people are downloading is a US game with a Z code. If Z really is only for Austrian releases, then it means that the Z entry should probably be deleted entirely as it's fake.

Another game that was mislabled was FIFA.Soccer.10.USA.WII-SUSHi, as it was actually the PAL version. No idea if the site has the correct info though 'cuz I don't have the game anymore.

Prince of Persia: The Forgotten Sands i have found real cover and RPWX41 is a real pal ID (maybe RPWP41 is another one for only EN language), RPWZ41 is the US ID (strange using Z but is clearly marked on the back cover)

Had to reformat my SD card. Why won't GX download any covers or disc images? Says all 155 titles on my drive are not found in the database.
