Im confused, why are u putting GC games in the DB? Has the GC USB loader finally been made?

 

[djbubba2002]

Well, SNEEK probably should be able to play GC-Games from USB soon, and Pune made Loaders (GX/WiiFlow) that work with SNEEK...so do the math

.

But right now, they are for the WODE.

There any cover packs available with like all HQ NTSC covers ext.?

 

[Yod4z]

all image for triiforce MRC for PAL SNES games have been added with tow version (one with original box art and one with the first screen in game)

@lustar/zorglub: The log mentions a recent change to the AU 3D image generation script. I think that was broken as many of the 3D AU images on the site are now broken. Many of them only have half of the real cover stretched over the face like this:

Others just have no cover when they should have like NSMB Wii:

i don't see this probleme on WiiTDB

Edit: i see this only for old 3D image, i just tried new one and not prob

 

[giantpune]

i have hashes for around 400 gamecube games. crc32, sha1, and md5. but i am too lazy to actually to actually type these into the site. if somebody wants to get my list and start adding them or if lustar or somebody wants to write a little code to parse my list it will add them all in a few seconds.

but i see an issue with WiiTDB and GC games. there is only 1 place for all these hashes. but some games are 2 discs. which hash to put in? or hash both discs together?

send your list to Lustar (Zorglub).
I've forwarded the first one you sent me to him.

What do you mean by old and new 3D images? Are you calling the full covers "new 3d"? I know the full covers are fine, but lustar didn't do anything to those.

@lustar:
A little more info... The change log specifically states:
WiiTDB.com04/01/10: Nintendo GameCube games can now be added. The Australian 3D cover template was updated for all AU 3D covers.

I assume the change was made to put that grey box which represents the rating logo we have there. The AU 3D covers were fine before this and now a lot of them are messed up.

Heh, what would be awesome is if there was a field to enter the AU rating for the games and the 3D cover template inserted the correct AU rating image onto the spine

.

new meanif i upload a cover the 3D created are good but if you look in wiitdb for 3d cover you'll see some bug like you said

Hi boys!

I'd like to create an account on WiiTDB,but signing up is still disable. When it will be up again?

but some games are 2 discs. which hash to put in? or hash both discs together?You can use the fields that are intended for different versions, using "Disc 1" and "Disc 2" instead of 1.0 for example.

All PAL wiiware/VC are up to date

----------------------

All tile images for triiforce MRC for PAL NES games have been added (created

by my self)

 

[giantpune]

heres part of the ID/name/sha1/crc32/md5 list. 400+ games so far http://www.mediafire.com/?djzdygznojd for multidisc games, the second disc is "disc id 01"

Perhaps I'm looking in the wrong place, but I can't see where GameCube disc art is updated. I see only an option for uploading the cover and full cover in the drop down menu. Some titles, such as Luigi's Mansion are showing disc art so I'm assuming it's possible to add them. Am I missing something obvious?
