Hacking GameTDB - game information database + covers

[Thomas0046]

Is there a way to add Mplayer CE cover to Wiiflow manually? Because I can´t download it via the option in Wiiflow menu, it still says 0/1 covers downloaded...but I know there is a cover of Mplayer CE, right here: http://wiitdb.com/wiitdb/artwork/coverfullHQ/EN/DMPA.png
Can any1 help me please? Thank you

okay, so i'll admit... i didn't read through all 73 pages, so forgive me if this has been asked/answered.

when i open wiidb, i get the following error...

here is the exception text...

System.FormatException: Input string was not in a correct format.
at Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.Conversions.ParseDouble(String Value, NumberFormatInfo NumberFormat)
at Microsoft.VisualBasic.CompilerServices.Conversions.ToSingle(String Value, NumberFormatInfo NumberFormat)

using wiidb v0.9.3

i'm able to click continue and the program appears to open and work, but with the error i am thinking that i am missing out on something the program can do.

thanks in advance for any help resolving this error.

Wiidb is not supported by WiiTDB , so you get answers here.
Try to find the dev of this software and report him your problems

There are only '3D' and some 'disc' cover packs available. Do you plan to release the rest as well as full packs? What alternatives are there to get all the covers at the moment? HTTrack, Offline Explorer or something?

 

[Benjay]

Wii backup manager can do that for you.
Plug your hdd in your PC , run wii backup manager , select your drive.
Then get all the 3d covers , full covers , front covers , disc covers for all your games.

 

[Traxx]

Will try that. Thank you.

Only allows to download covers you have on your HDD. How to force it to download all (of one region)?

 

[Benjay]

Why would you need to download all the covers for a region ?
if you don't own all the games , you don't need all the covers.

People who want a full pack of HQcovers are people who plan to upload them elsewhere , and so they are "stealing" our work.

How many time do you think it took us to collect all those covers and maintain the database ?
Do you think bandwith is free ?

Wii backup manager allows you to batch download all the covers for all the games you own , and i believe that's more than enough

If you want all the covers for a region , get them one by one on the site (and then you'll get and idea of how much time it takes.....)

Is the Bollywood cover a mistake perhaps?
It seems it doesn't exist for the wii....in europe.

 

[Benjay]

That's not a mistake :

It's a custom game made by Psykos....

cover v2

it's ok for you Etheboss ?

 

[Etheboss]

Hi mamule,

Thanks for taking the time to do this...
I like it very much...i hope other people to.
I am going to try today to see if it works in wiiflow.

Update: just tested, looks very good.

 

[mamule]

good

I send on WiiTDB

edit: the ID S2SK isn't good, this corresponds at NTSC-K cover

 

[Etheboss]

Now i almost not dare to ask but i also did not find a boxcover for Wii Speak Channel on WiiTDB.
Channel ID is HCFP.

I already found a few pictures that could be usefull..
Wii Speak pictures

can you work your magic on this one also?

As to your response about the ID. I have to ask the creator about this, this is the ID he uses in the forwarder.
