Homebrew [Release] TwilightBoxart - NDS/GB(A)/SNES/NES/GG Boxart Downloader

[DarthBellic]

I think the boxart downloader I uploaded will download gba boxart.

that worked suprisingly well thx
tho now my DS box arts arent showing up anymore, know a fix?

 

[godreborn]

not sure what happened. I never encountered that issue. did you try scanning the ds games again?

 

[DarthBellic]

uhhh, disregard that man i just realized i fucked up something when i was tweaking sd card shit earlier, my apologies, thx for the downloader man!

 

[HotSnack]

hi, the boxart downloader works great but some of the gba games as well as my entire nes roms boxarts couldn't be found and it returned 404, is there any fix to this?
also petition to update more boxarts for ColecoVision, Sord M5, Sega SG-1000, WonderSwan and Neo Geo Pocket games ^^

@KirovAir

You may can use this Windows Version:

To "manually" downlad the Covers to your Nintendo DS SD Card.
This should be still working.

Thank you.

Good Morning Sir @KirovAir

Is there maybe any Chance of an Update please ?
I am not sure it is me,but no Atari (a26 / a52 / a78) Cover is loading / found...

Sorry to bother you,but your awesome Tool is the only Option it seems..

EDIT: Sorry,my Fault,I did not see,the Boxart Loader uses the GameTDB,very very sorry.....

Thank you very much.

This is an awesome application, but isn't working for the purpose I'm trying it for... I tried using it for my Wii emulator cover arts, but it doesn't appear to work because it saves the filename with the ROM's file extension in tact. For example "Chrono Trigger (USA).sfc.png" whereas SNES 9x GX looks for just "Chrono Trigger (USA.png)

It would also be cool if this downloaded cartridge art too.

as of 2023 aug 03
"An error occurred while sending the request. The remote name could not be resolved: 'boxart.kirovair' "

was working fine 4 months ago.

According to an old post, the server was taken down due to lack of funds.

 

[Peeteris]

That's terrible news! Twilightbox without box art is like pizza without cheese. What to do now?!

Yeah it's not working currently. You can try using SkraperUI. It'll download png images for the boxarts in the same title as your rom, and you can set it to download at 128 x 115. You can then use bulk renamer tool to replace all ".png" with ".nds.png" or do it manually if you want. Works perfectly

I scanned about 200 roms and maybe 10 of them were the wrong region, and one of them was oddly a Rating Pending boxart. Easy enough to manually download those 10 off gametdb, but make sure to check all the boxarts if you care about that stuff
