Title: New ShotReporter
Post by: liquid8 on May 22, 2004, 12:53:01 am
Hey, I'm back! I added a small request from someone that had their images in rom folder names (i.e. pacman\snap.png). You now have the option of matching by folders, and specifying what to search for (snap, marquee, etc..)

Hopefully this is what they were looking for.

I have written somthing similar that I use to get a list of images I still need and also sees how many percent the images are equal to the roms. Works really well, it saved me lots of time. Though it's not quite finished yet, I already use it because I just was too impatient. I have it doing what I want now and when I need the other functionalities I was going to implement, I will complete the proggy and distribute it.

Thanks for the update.  I use this program all the time and find it extremely useful.

I'd like to request one small feature though.  Would it be possible to be able to list the snapshots in a directory that DID NOT match the rom filenames.  Perhaps another TAB which listed "other" files.

Basically a lot of the screenshot packs I have on my site have a few images that were accidentally not named correctly, (which can happen when you are renaming hundreds of screenshots by hand!).  If the shotreporter could pick those out, I could fix/delete them so the packs available contain only full clean sets with no extras.

I actually noticed this just the other day when grabbing your GREAT shot packs :) (a lot of good dumps [!] were not named that way). I'm adding it now.. should be done today.
