Can't download Boxarts

Open Ritvikisalive-coding opened this issue 1 year ago • 9 comments

i used it a couple of weeks ago and it worked but i tried today because i added more games to my Twilight Menu ++ but all i get is " An error occurred while sending the request. The remote name could not be resolved: 'boxart.kirovair.com' "

Still no fix for this.

Bring your website back online or give us the ability to input different sites to pull box art from.

Who are you to demand anything from a tool provided for free?

This website has all the box arts: https://thumbnails.libretro.com/Nintendo%20-%20Nintendo%20DS/Named_Boxarts/ This isn't a fix or anything- just if the dev or someone else wants to rewrite this to pull boxarts.

Yes, the domain boxart.kirovair.com is no longer registered to the author. Unfortunately, the program was coded to use his website instead of GameTDB.

You are free to fork the repo and change the download function.

@robcmo as others have mentioned before, downgrade to version 0.6 which did not use his server

Thank you @getBoolean I'll consider trying that. I already extracting the files from the US archive S Covers (png) which is the correct size and has pretty much all I want anyway.
