This would be great if it also included support for PC games... why the limitation for Wii games?

I plan to implement more systems, including PC Games in the future. At the moment Wii and XBOX 360 are implemented. I have built out the databases myself for XBOX and Wii and keep it updated, to ensure the game list is always up-to-date. It will take some time to build out the database for all PC Games.

A couple of updates:

There is now an official Forum for Gamez @ http://gamezapp.org/forums. I will continue to maintain this thread on sabnzbd forums, but any extensive questions or help should be posted on the Gamez forum.

Prowl Notifications have been implemented

An authentication (Login) module has been implemented

Cover Art has been added

Ok, so I already have Sickbeard and CouchPotato running on the default ports.

I've just downloaded this and run Gamez.py, but all I get is a Python window asking for my Sickbeard username and password. No idea why it wants that... even after entering details, it just keeps asking for them.

I'm guessing this isn't supposed to happen ;)

Win7 x64.

EDIT: Never mind. Sab by default uses port 8080, and Sickbeard 8081. Games has Sab as port 8081 in the config file. Changed that and we're all good.

I noticed on first start that 4 Wii games are listed as wanted as well. That probably shouldn't happen (especially as I don't own a Wii :D)

I'd like to request a "force search" option as well if possible :)

Unable to connect to Sanzbd: http%3A//localhost%3A8080/sabnzbd/api%3Fmode%3Dget_config%26apikey%3Dxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx%26section%3Dmisc%26keyword%3Dscr ipt_dir

Sabnzbd settings for server and host are:
Server: localhost
Port: 8080

Settings in Gamez for Sabnzbd are:
Server: localhost
Port: 8080

The same obviously. Why won't it connect?

Very nice! I actually had an idea for this application awhile ago (http://forum.xbmc.org/showthread.php?t=99650). I am the owner of http://thegamesdb.net and I would love for you to use our API for a database of games. I will make a post in your forums as well so we can talk about it. Thanks again for creating this! :)

Love the program, just adding my request


Add a launch browser on startup option

When a game is snatched and added in sab gamez renames the item added so there is no way to see which version you are downloadin eg which group release, what region

Thinner layout like the original screenshots

Add ps3 support

Region support so for example I only want to snatched PAL or Region free version

I've tested this out and it seems to be working good. However, the box art that shows up for games isn't being pulled from thegamesdb.net.

Hi

At the moment it is so that only new added games to Db get the cover from thegamedb. Try to search for ps3 games and you will see.

P.s.: It is important to use the TheGamedb branch

Hi

I don`t think so. The forum of Gamez is also crashed. Perhaps you can make a new api mode on thegamesdb.net. It would help when there were a methode to get a list of all games for select platform?

Yea I'm working on building that API support in right now actually. Are you going to be taking over development of this project?

I don´t know. But I will have a look at that. At the moment I like this projects and I will work on it.
BUT I am not a real good coder. This is my first Project. When you find bug or you have feature request please post it there and I will have a look at that.
