Theres a few missing (or are not working) on my Pal wii form the site link in this threads first post (http://www.theotherzone.com/wii/).

For the missing ones for my machine I've put together the images which I think are the correct size etc (and are defo the right game ID's) but for some reason they arent showing up in the usb loader?

I've uploaded my pics here: http://www.megaupload.com/?d=THP1FQSV ....can someone confirm they are the right size etc and whats gone wrong?

CARNIVAL GAMES MINI GOLF (PAL) - R69P54
GUILTY GEAR XX (PAL) - R62PGT
METAL SLUG ANTHOLOGY (PAL) - RMLP7U
NERF N STRIKE (PAL) - RNKP69
SAM AND MAX SEASON 1 (PAL) - R3XP6V

I'm also missing KING OF FIGHTERS OROCHI SAGA (PAL) as I don't have the full ID for that one (RKFP...) and I couldt find it on your site?

Thnaks in advance
 
Yep. Fixed

QUOTE(RjT @ Apr 10 2009, 10:11 AM) Very nice djtaz, the work you and Kosaic is greatly appreciated! Ive got 2 suggestions, Have an option for game blurb aswell, that way can be used down the track for the loaders that might grab the information manually instead of having to manually download and extract themselves. And a personal one I would like to see is create an excel file with the game ids, names and blurbs and if possible the game art also.
Dont forget everyone else, loads were involved in this and put in a lot of hard work with adding names and testing the site.
By Game Blurb , i presume u mean a brief review ?

The path for any game is quite simple

- Mario Tennis

They show me "No Image"


Oops - was uploading the wrong file - fixed now
can u try clicking on the images for those games directly and see if they download ?

EDIT:

The Cover size for Tatsunoko vs. Capcom is not correct, it must be 160 x 225, not 166 x 250

Ahh they are NTSC-J which would have different codes - can you upload them to the NTSC-J section of the site please ?
 
Sorry, I'm in a hurry, didn't have time to check the GAMEID, but here's a cover for Trivial Pursuit, saw it was missing in the list.
It's in the correct size and everything ready to be used.



btw, tnx alot for all your efforts!
 
Just out of curiosity. I'm using a 43" HD Plasma tv, and using such small images means that when they are loaded to my screen they are having to be enlarged and the quality is pretty rubbish. I understand having smaller sizes saves space but would it be possible to have larger images for people with larger screens.

I'm not even sure if it can be done or if a larger image is used it would be too big for the loader. Anyhoo just seeing if it's possible. I wouldn't mind having much larger image files if it meant having a much more detailed and crisp image when I use the loader.
 
Also I'm not sure why but when I use the images website that djtaz set up, when I press to download what files I have chosen, all I get is a page loading with gibberish and loads of text. It's like it's not working properly. Maybe it's because I am using a Mc but surely that shouldn't be a problem.

If it is due to using the Mac can this be fixed so I can use it too please and any other Mac users.

Cheers and great work.

Oh and one last thing, can you implement a search field somewhere as it's a bit of a nightmare trying to find a game amongst 400 or so as it currently is.

I think this is because your mac isnt saving the file away as a .zip file and is trying to open it instead with a file viewer.

Thanks anyway for the work you done !
