Hi, after I place windows games as shortcuts in roms/windows folder, I can't scrap them with emulationstation, always says that It can't find a game.
I've surfed in thegamesdb and I can see the game I'm trying to scrap (e.g. Cat Quest) but I see the platform is PC and not Windows or PC Windows.

Hello,

Dis you have changed the scrap source in scraper options ?

At "Scrape from" choose "thegamesdb".

I have no issue to scrape PC games with thegamesdb, may be you have some issue to connect to their server, but this is not related with RetroBat.

You use shortcuts as pc games in roms/windows folder as me?
Can you give an example of your rom folder, please?

What up Rixxx !!!  cheers

Hi,
I have a question about scraping in Retrobat.
When I scrape a game using thegamesdb or screenscraper I have noticed that the files are downloaded into folders called images and videos.
Is there any way to direct the scrapers to download directly to my folders named mixart, snap, and wheel since that is where all of my media is currently located?
I know it still works going into the images and videos folder but I would like to keep it consistent.

Thanks.
