Title: Point out mistakes to be fixed
Post by: wolvesfan08 on January 05, 2007, 10:21:44 PM
A note from your friendly neighborhood admin Doom:
This thread is for pointing out mistakes that we, the admins, can fix. If you have an issue with the actual code of the site (like a popup window not working or something), make a thread in the Feedback forum.

---
I just thought I would make this thread to help Snowcone out. If you spot a problem with labeling for a cover you can just point it out here.

If you dont like the idea Snowcone, I'll delete the post.

Deleted posts that are relevant but still get in the way of admins finding mistakes:
Quote from: wolvesfan
We should put them in a format so it is easier for Snowcone to work out.

How about this -
Name - "Name of Game"
Link - "Link of Cover"
Problem - "Problem that needs to be fixed"

If you have any better ideas for a format that would work better, leave your idea here.
Quote from: KaiserWAVE
I'd say keep the thread.  I think it's a great idea wolvesfan08.
Quote from: Snowcone
By all means, this is a good idea.

I found out (when printing) that the GBA game 'Bomberman Tournament' is 72 dpi.

(Reminder to self - check dpi settings before you print)    :)
Ugh, i'll see if I can upscale it without artifacts.

Playstation 1 custom DVD covers - Castlevania - symphony of the night

There are 2 by SMMM that appear to be duplicates:

one is labeled _2 the other _3

I could be wrong, but they appear identical to me.




If you mean this one
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=1637
and this one
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=1601
then I think you're correct.

They're the same to every little detail...

I'd be a pain, but I think it's worth mentioning.

Every case I've made has been Canadian in origan, except for Astrix & Obilix 2 Pack for GBA (obviously Europe) and F-Zero Climax (Japan). As of now they all read American, which is incorrect. They should be all canadian.

Cheers.

Since this project is a worldwide project and not US only I don't see any reason why the console names should be US only. In cases where the system has a different Japan/European name, it should read the US name first and then the JP/EU alternitive. So that would mean changes for:

NES/Famicom
Sega CD/Mega CD
Sega Genesis/Mega Drive
Super NES/Super Famicom

If there is honestly a large push to have the international names attached to categories I don't see that as a huge problem personally as long as it doesn't clutter things up.

How about making some script to guess at where a user is from based on his IP address and display the name appropriate for his region? :P

Any luck with my problem making attachments to posts.  This error keeps coming up:

"The upload folder is full. Please try a smaller file and/or contact an administrator."

I can only assume this is a restriction on me alone (I don't mean me personaly, but through some standard rule or capacity that I may be at the limit of) as attachments appear to continue to be posted by others.

A minor one:

Resident Evil: Deadly Silence PAL version is listed under the title 'Resident Evil'

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=1285


It should probably be combined into the 'Resident Evil: Deadly Silence' listing which currently houses the NTSC version.

Twisted Edge Snowboarding for N64.  Only top 15% of cover downloads.  The rest is grey.  This happens to some Jpegs with compression errors.  It may well open in one program but not another (or even any other).  Nothing on my PC would view it.

Yup, that's a cover from a time where we didn't have the fancy flags and there was just PAL without a dedicated country. I'm sure there are more covers with that problem but they all will be fixed in time. I look through the PS2 section when I add covers and change the mistakes as I see them :)

Little naming Issue

While searching, Spider-Man and Spiderman both throw up separate covers. Ideally they need to be cross-referenced so that both show up in the same search. Possible?

I noticed the same thing with covers from different regions/titles but the same game.
e.g. Starfox/Starwing for the snes at least are all the same game but show different results depending on your search query.

Oh yeah, and Castlevania IV for the snes should technically be Super Castlevania IV. (Or is that just me being picky?)

That's all for now ;)

I'm definintely going to expand the search function for the new version of the site by allowing us to add additional spellings or keywords to games. This will help the accuracy of the search results.

All the manuals are gone.... When I tried to download one because I wanted to see how it looks it said "No input file specified".....
Then I tried several other but there always came up the same error.... So I suppose when we moved server we lost our manuals on the way...  ;D

Post by: KaiserWAVE on June 13, 2007, 03:04:39 AM
That would be me. The cover says "rumbo a la copa mundial de la fifa" which I was pretty sure meant something along the lines of "road to the world cup" plus it said "official fifa world cup germany 2006 licence" so I thought it was the Spanish version of the Fifa World Cup games. Are you sure this is Fifa 06? I tried to check but I couldn't find anything. The PS2 version of Fifa 06 has just a Fifa licence without mentioning the World Cup in Germany.
Damn, where are all those Spaniards when you need 'em :)

I did that by purpose because it's the US version back with the US version spine and just the jap front instead of the american.... So im my oppinion it is the american cover in custom form....
The japanese release would be that one:

front + manual + cart:
http://www.1up.com/do/imageDisplay?id=3342198 (http://www.1up.com/do/imageDisplay?id=3342198)

I can't find a picture of the back but I suppose it isn't looking exactly like the american release back cover right?  ;)

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=1921 (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=1921) (Super Mario Bros 3, NES)

Basically, all three covers are from the US version.

The first one from Papa November is very rough around the edges, literally - there's a noticeable gap between front, spine and back.

The second one is much better, though the third one is perhaps the best of all three, as the spine edges have been softened.

I suggest that Papa November's version be removed in favour of Satoshi Matrix's. No need to have three versions of basically the same cover when the other two are superior.

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=465 (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=465) (Radiant Silvergun)

This is not an Original Cover, but a Custom Cover.

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=466 (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=466) (Vandal Hearts, Saturn)

Again, not an Original cover, but a Custom Cover. I keep seeing Japanese Saturn custom covers from SMM with this template being referred to as Original Covers when in fact the original Japanese coverwas nothing more than standard CD jewel case art. Does The Cover Project prefer Japanese Saturn covers in DVD format or are original CD covers accepted as well?

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=780 (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=780) (Star Ocean, SNES)

Not an Original Cover, but a Custom Cover. Why? Because Star Ocean was never released outside Japan.

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=488 (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=488) (Chrono Trigger, SNES)

There are two versions here of the US version. Both versions are done well. JohnyDX's version has a more accurate spine. Shouldn't one of the two versions be removed?

Could take a while. Snowcone is the only one who can delete covers that have already been added to the site. He's currently M.I.A, probably real life taking its share of him.

About your covers in the upload queue, you want them to be deleted? All your uploads? Or just certain files?

The majority of your uploaded DC covers was uploaded on August 2nd and one on August 3rd (Wacky Races)

There are just 2 covers uploaded before August 2nd, Shenmue (7/18) and Skies Of Arcadia (7/11). So I guess you want the latter two to be removed and everything else to stay?

Hmmmm.... You've got your point there but the NES UGC covers just have a little alternation in the spine and those cases look like Wii covers with NES artwork..... So in my oppinion they look pretty custom.... :)

Soul Blader for the SNES was made from a low res scan(200dpi)..... It was scaled up to meet our requirements(that's why I didn't post it in the first place)....

If everyone thinks it's ok anyway(it looks ok but I thought we should follow our minimum quality rules) we could start working on the other jap scans from Y~K..... They are pretty hard to come by after all....

Damn, it looked good to me. Should have given it a second look. When you see a cover in the queue that is not up to the standards then delete it. That's what I usually do. We have told people over and over what our standards are so I have no guilty conscience deleting covers. Sounds harsh but that's how I see it.

As for your question, I'm not a talented cover maker :) If a trusted and appreciated cover artist like Lumberjack42, you, Lish or the likes creates and uploads a cover I'm usually tempted to think that everything is the way it should be. From the quick look I had at the cover it seemed good and I didn't bother double-checking it (which in retrospect I should've done). As you said, scans like Y~K's are hard to come by, which is no carte blanche for creating covers from low(er) quality scans which again results in low(er) quality covers. It's really a question for the dedicated cover makers. Do YOU think we should create covers from these scans or reject them with a tear in our eye?

It's really difficult to say.... I took a close look at the Soul Blader cover in photoshop and it looks ok but not perfect.... If the scan used for creation would have been 300dpi I suppose the cover would look awesome(except some little blemishes ;) ) but with the 200dpi scan upscaled at the end it looks a little bit grainy when zoomed in close..... The question is if you would see this on the printout..... I suppose no but it's about our standards so I'd say let those scans be with two tears in our eyes....

Maybe someone can convince Y~K to rescan his covers with 300dpi? That would be perfect!

From the quick look I had at the cover it seemed good and I didn't bother double-checking it (which in retrospect I should've done). As you said, scans like Y~K's are hard to come by, which is no carte blanche for creating covers from low(er) quality scans which again results in low(er) quality covers. It's really a question for the dedicated cover makers. Do YOU think we should create covers from these scans or reject them with a tear in our eye?

It's really difficult to say.... I took a close look at the Soul Blader cover in photoshop and it looks ok but not perfect.... If the scan used for creation would have been 300dpi I suppose the cover would look awesome(except some little blemishes ;) ) but with the 200dpi scan upscaled at the end it looks a little bit grainy when zoomed in close..... The question is if you would see this on the printout..... I suppose no but it's about our standards so I'd say let those scans be with two tears in our eyes....

Maybe someone can convince Y~K to rescan his covers with 300dpi? That would be perfect!

I asked him that question some time ago... he said 'might do it, but not anytime soon'.

Anyway, as much as I would like to make some covers from those raws, I'm going to wait until Y~K provides me with better quality ones. The spines are missing too - so even the Soul Blader cover from Lumberjack42 (as good as it is) is missing something right now.

Something I just noticed: In the n64 section you guys have uploaded my Pocket Monsters Stadium 1 & 2 covers as alternitive covers for the US Pokémon Stadium 1 & 2. This is incorrect.

In Japan there are three Pocket Monsters Stadium games: 1, 2 and 3. Pocket Monsters Stadium 1 was never released outside Japan because it came out before Pokémon became mega popular; Pocket Monsters Stadium 2 was the first to be translated and was renamed Pokémon Stadium (1) for its US release. When Pocket Monsters Stadium 3 G/S came out it thus became Pokémon Stadium 2.


If thats confusing, refer to this little chart:

Country      Game name
             
JPN      PKMN STUM 1      PKMN STUM 2    PKMN STUM 3


USA     N/A                    PKMN STUM 1    PKMN STUM 2


So instead of being alternitives, Pocket Monsters Stadium 1 should be listed as Pocket Monsters Stadium seperte from the others and Pocket Monsters Stadium 2 could be either listed on its own or as an alternitive for Pokémon Stadium (1).

Just think of confusing Final Fantasy numbering  :P

The custom NTSC cover says Playstation rather than Playstation 2 on the top and side.

Post by: antony30bc on February 13, 2008, 11:58:41 AM
That can be confusing. Exceptions were made for "Original Covers" modified to fit the UGC cases as these are the only commercially available sleeve type cases that fit these older games.

Are you printing on cardboard and folding replacement boxes? I considered investigating that at one point but the UGC are pretty sturdy and keep the games safer. In these cases "Original Cover" has come to designate that it attempts to recreate the original cover in a new form factor as opposed to a custom cover which might use completely different artwork etc.

Title: Re: Point out mistakes to be fixed
Post by: KaiserWAVE on February 13, 2008, 02:13:18 PM
"Original cover" is more like a relict from the early days of this site. It meant that the cover uses the original retail cover which has been modified to fit in the UGCs. With time we replaced "original cover" with the label "retail cover" to prevent any confusion. So right now we use "retail cover" and "custom cover" to categorize the covers. So when you see a cover being labeled as original it means it uses the retail artwork.

It was I who originally suggested that I believe. And now I feel old, despite that post being mere months ago.

It'S the same game but has been firstly released as Mike Tysons Punch-Out.... Due to problems with licensing it latter was changed ti simply Punch-Out with altered graphics but it basically is the same game.....

It's a little odd thing in NES history afaik....

But what if someone doesn't know that it was firstly released as Mike Tysons Punch-Out? They will look in the "P" section under NES, and not see it there, and then there will be a request for something that is already up, just mislabeled.

I like arguing with people who say that it was changed because of Tysons rape conviction, but that happened over a year after Tysons contract with Nintendo expired.

he is refered to as mr. dream on the virtual console because nintendo's contract with mike tyson is long expired.

instead of paying iron mike a bunch of money they just changed out the final fighter to Mr. Dream.

I dont think thats a error... this is 2 different covers for 1 game, but this site is about indexing the covers to download the cover not the game.
Also, many people who has Out of This World, may not know thats the same game as Another World, and they will only look for the name Out of This World, no seeing, the site dont have it.. bye..(vice-versa)

On PS2 and on PC games where I mostly put my hands on we have many cases like this...
Example, Ace Combat 5 - The Unsung War is the same game as Ace Combat - Squadron Leader in PS2, being one for USA and other one to Europe... but I dont think everybody who own this game knows that, and when they come here, how they will find the cover of the game they have if its listed in a differente name?

Hmmm.... Maybe you are right... Could make finding a game easier if it is under it's region specific name... I just thought same game same cover site would make things more compact.... So maybe ketaros is right and we should keep games with totally different names for US/EU regions in different cover pages.....

Out of This World was only the title during the 16 bit era, It is more widely known as Another World (the game was a MASSIVE seller in Europe, especially France where it originates from)

It was named Out of this World because of the TV show called Another World, these days it is sold as Another World all over the world, since the recent re-release on PC

So IMO it should be labeled under the AW title, though it isn't a big deal, since fans of those games will know it by both titles

on Wikipedia it says
Quote
The game was released in the United States under the title Out of this World to avoid confusion with the popular but unrelated soap opera called Another World. Coincidentally, a science fiction sitcom called Out of This World aired at the same time of the game's US release.

Eric Chahi (the lone creator of the game) has also stated that the title is Another World and Out of This World was only the US release title (though i think the Amiga release was named Another World in the US in later prints), but as i mentioned, the recent rerelease was named worldwide as Another World, also in the US. The same with the Japanese title Outer World, it has been later changed to Another World aswell

It's no big deal, but the old US title has long since been removed and forgotten by fans of the game

There's alot of info on the game at the Another World Official Website (http://www.anotherworld.fr/anotherworld_uk/)

It's still pretty huge in Europe and it's retro communities. Chahi released a Hi-Res version last year or so that contained a making of video and remastered soundtrack. Also Heart of the Alien has been denounced by Chahi because he never wanted any sequels made.

I think the only game that rivals this games fame in Europe is Flashback, atleast that's the impression i get.

Ace Combat: Distant Thunder (Europe) - The correct is Great Britain, thats not the Multi Europe cover.

Airblade (Europe) - The correct is Great Britain, thats not the Multi Europe cover.

Alex Ferguson's Player Manager 2001 (Europe) - The correct is Great Britain, thats not the Multi Europe cover.

Altered Beast (Europe) - The correct is Great Britain, thats not the Multi Europe cover.

Amplitude (Englad) - The cover is the GERMANY one.

Ape Escape 3 - ERROR! Upload probaly broke, the cover got cutted.

Armored Core 2 (Europe) - The correct is Great Britain, thats not the Multi Europe cover.
Armored Core 2 (USA) - ERROR! This cover got some problem on its resolution on its half down.

go to the admin button

at the top is "manage exsisting game"
then just search for the game
click edit and you can change all of the info that we normally can when we upload covers
(ex: game name, region, country, artist, case type etc.)

Unfortunatelly a lot of the early covers suffer of this problem. The only way to get it removed is to have Snowcone take care of it.

My idea (non admins won't understand this much, and neither do I!)

upload modified file name cover and thumbnail, gb_kidicarus_de and gb_kidicarus_de_thumb to /ready
Admin->Manage Existing Games->gameboy->Kid Icarus
Covers for this game->Original Cover (gb_kidicarus)->Edit
Cover Image: change from gb_kidicarus to gb_kidicarus_de

I think this will work, but not gonna do it until Snowcone or someone says it works or not.

Yup Tik is right. I once added a cover and messed up the region info. When I noticed that I went to the "edit the cover" and changed the name of the file only to have the thumbnail vanish and f%&k things up for good. In the end Snowcone had to fix it :)

You can edit the cover to be German instead of US but you can't mess with the filenames of already added covers. If you just change it it will be displayed as the specified region but the filename will remain the same.

By the way I checked the Kid Icarus cover...The back is in English, it's just the legal info that's German. is this really the retail cover or a mislabled custom cover?
Title: Re: Point out mistakes to be fixed
Post by: UncleBob on June 16, 2008, 08:23:32 AM
The GameBoy red/black logo thingee on the front is in German too.  If it's a custom cover, it's an odd one.

I wonder if, perhaps, the cover is the original German cover but customized with English text on the back to make it the "US" version?

While I agree with you that it should be custom instead of retail, there's still the problem of the region. It should the the US as the region, since it came from the US, not Canada.

Ok, so the admins don't have the access to fix them, my mistake. Then can't the individual cover makers, like yourself, fix their own work? I'd fix them myself if I had the means/photoshop. Should I just post what I find in each individual cover makers' thread?

No you posted it in the correct thread.  Yes the artist can "fix" his own cover but he can't really do anything with it at this time.  We (admins) can not switch pre existing covers (including newer versions with fixed typos etc.)  Only Snowcone, the guy that runs the site, can do that and he is very busy.

I just submitted 3 covers, and all of them had mistakes. I fixed them after they were uploaded, but now I feel dumb. How should I go about re-submitting the fixed versions? The messed up ones haven't been posted yet.

Sorry.. I labeled it wrong. MY BAD  ;D

I was the one who added the item number, UPC, correct ELSPA rating and replaced the logo that you had cuz it was too low res.

I'll fix it right now.

It's just a little format error....

1. Open it in photoshop....

2. Go to -> Image -> Image size

3. In the "document size" part of the window change the dpi to 300

4. In the "pixel dimensions" part of the part of the window change the pixel back to 3366 x 2100

5. Click OK -> Finished


Don't worry there's almost no qual lost here because you just correct the size of the picture....

This Yoshi's Island (SNES) cover is 72 DPI, making it too big for the UCGs. I resized it myself in gimp for myself, but you guys might want to fix the site's upload before somebody else wastes such a massive amount of black ink like I did... :(

It's an old problem with some covers which weren't thorouhgly enough checked prior to uplaoding.... Form a time when only one person had to do the whole work.... If you say it's too big you just have to resize it to 300dpi and the right cm dimensions and you won't loose any quality.....

Yeah, its the same cover my wife has (USA)....   

If you read the small box on the right rear, above the barcode, it says: "For sale, rental or use only in the USA, Canada, Mexico and Latin America"

Ideally, in The Cover Project Forever, instead of categorizing by region, it would categorize by language(s) and maybe the region the cover is from. Ex:

Pikmin 2

Maybe we should really make a own section for each version of the game.... It really will clutter our database but if such a thing can happen(someone thinks it's the wrong game) for a game like Contra(which is more than well known) it can happen for more scarce games anytime....

I also agree with both of you.  Its really confusing with the different names for the same game in different regions.  We have it split in some cases and i like it better that way. (look to StarFox & StarWing on SNES)

Post by: Symptoms0fMercy on May 23, 2009, 03:49:27 PM
Maybe this isn't the thread to ask in, but while we're discussing the format of the games list, what determines the page breaks? Some letters have close to 15 titles on a page, while others like the SNES R's have 6 titles total, split between 2 pages.

BTW I agree with you three about the different region titles. What if we had all region titles show in the lists (like how starfox/starwing is), but when you click one, have them bring you to the same page with all the region's covers and set the default cover that displays to that region's cover. (so if you click starfox, the first cover you see is US, and if you click starwing, the first one you see is EU). That would be a change that only snowcone can implement though, right?

This is due to background stuff.... To make it short I suppose if there are cover "names/sections" in our database for games which have no covers yet they still reserver a invisible spot in the letter section.... So if there are 50 "R" SNES games but only 10 have covers the rest got some kind of invisible space reserved.... Sounds confusing.... ;D

Believe me, there is nothing I wish more than to be able to fix every single non-working cover in the site, but in a lot of cases we no longer have a working copy. we have seen lately that covers get uploaded, and then show up as corrupted. In some instances the cover is lost for good and we can not replace it until the original artist re-uploads a new version of it.

The reason for my sarcasm is that you are pointing out something that we clearly already know about.

Seriously - you guys need to get with the program, drop this whole custom-built CMS that Snowcone knocked together on his own, and go with something like Drupal. Go with something tested and proven - I honestly do not get why there needs to be this overcomplication by going with a homegrown solution that obviously does not do the work most of the time and needs a lof of maintenance and manual labor.

Like - for instance - the whole uploading process - I understand this is quite a pain. Quite simply, this is inexcusable for ANY CMS by ANY hallmark - this stuff needs to be transparent and as simple as clicking on the Quit button of your PC.

For instance - my uploaded covers have been sitting in the 'Uploads' section for over a month now - ready to be uploaded for over a month now - simply because nobody wants to take the time to 'publish' these covers - or because it's too 'time consuming', or because something goes wrong during the uploading process. I mean, what the hell? What is so overly complex about this stuff that a cover can't be added in a manner of seconds? You know, you can install something like Ruby on Rails, set up 'scaffolding' and you'll have CRUD functionality within a matter of seconds or minutes.

The technical part of adding a cover is not that time consuming; the admin panel is simple and strait forward. Examining covers for quality is what takes up some time.

EDIT: Ok.. I'll give a ray of hope.. I’m going to be on vacation between 10/31 and 11/08. I’m going to Miami and will have tons of free time as all my friends there will be working through the week.. I will dedicate as much free time as I have to as many covers as possible.
So be patient as IT WILL HAPPEN. I PROMISE!

Cover adding would be much less time intesive if people would make their covers perfect before uploading them. Just for your info Dante I allready went thorugh all your covers and they are all ready for publishing but I have to check about some descriptor stuff with snow before adding them.
Besides most of your covers where work for me you know. I suppose you didn't invest too much time in cleaning them and so it makes life complicated for an admin. Especially because the scans are not that stellar to begin with and so shaprening them was almost impossible. I just would like you to know that if those weren't your covers and you weren't a respected memeber of our community(in my eyes) some of those covers would have just been deleted by me.

To sum it up adding the covers isn't sooooo much work but making them shiny and perfect is....

I find that it takes about an hour to check, rename, make thumbs and re-up 10 covers. Thats if there is nothing to correct or fix on them. About 35% of the stuff i check has some kind of problem, wether it be barcodes from the wrong game to blatant copies of other people's work with almost nothing changed. This is what takes the most time for me. I try to post at least 10 covers a week from the upload queue, taking them from the back, or the ones that have been there longest. Nothing is going to help with quality checking, and i think when the new interface is up and running properly (with the ability to edit and delete stuff), things will go a lot smoother. When these errors in the upload process occur, as with the disc and inlay to Musashi, i move them to the Non Working area as that will allow me to upload working copies in there place( which i have at home ready to go).Time is my biggest enemy here, i have plenty of real-life distractions, plus the matter of playing games!! ;)

I have some holiday time coming soon myself, so should be able to do some serious uploading.

Inbetween switching between scanners I guess I didn't enable the 'Despeckle' option (FYI, it's called 'Despeckle' in most Linux imaging software - not Descreen). Anyway, I scan them in at 600dpi and because descreening is only needed on dotted print, I'm not going to enable it on covers that are not printed on dotted paper because otherwise you lose detail.

Anyway, I try to invest a lot of time in these covers so I guess you could say I am a little taken aback by what you said. In what way were these covers 'not that stellar'? Could you list some examples? Either the quality requirements have been  increased and I haven't noticed but I can't really notice my covers looking inferior to the ones I upload previously back when I began here. I mean, I scan them in at 600dpi, apply the 'Descreen'/'Despeckle' option wherever possible - I remove the dust and fix the colours - and yet each and everytime I get told by you my covers are basically rubbish and would have been deleted except for the fact I have been given a badge???

Why can't someone put up a tutorial somewhere where it's specifically defined what you guys look for? Because somehow this Quality Assurance process has to be made concrete - I'm trying to the best of my ability to make these covers look good but if you guys are looking for things that I'm not told about previously or can read about in a tutorial - then it will be necessary for a few 'cover admins' to touch all these covers up.

Anyway, what would you prefer me to do? Scan at 800dpi instead of 600dpi and then downscale from there? I'm scanning with an Epson Perfection V300 Photo - I assume that's good enough ?

So if you want - I can re-scan them again and run them through you.

Most of the covers had white borders and mainly because of the not used descreen/despeckle(however you may call it) option it was pretty dotted stuff mostly.... Loosing details is not ideal but having scans very difficult to work with further isn't ideal too.

Sorry by the way that my reply was a bit harsh before but I can't stand people always complaining about things discussed one million times.... Especially if things aren't as bad as some always say they are...

No I was being serious - what matters to me is that the covers are as good as possible. So if you feel that the covers you worked on could have turned out a lot better if the descreen option was checked beforehand, then I'd say just drop everything you have right now and I'll rescan the whole bunch.

One other thing - perhaps this is where some of the confusion stems from - don't mistake me for Provato - that's a different guy I invited from one of the other cover forum boards. My covers were always uploaded under 'Dante_Ali' and were scanned by myself.

I think the spine may be few pixels off but you can center it after its printed off inside the sleeve of the dvd case.  There are hundreds of Dreamcst DVD covers and its not really worth it to fix them for a few pixels.  Thanks though  :)

Before anybody points out that the latest (and many others infact) batch of covers have the DVD descriptor instead of UGC, its because there's a little bug in the uploading system. While this is fixable, it requires the use of the old system to do it and using it could cause probs. Therefore, the choices are to not post covers until its fixed (and Snowcone is mega busy) or take them with the wrong descriptor. Im guessing we would rather have the covers upon site.Think of this as a kind of pre-emptive strike. ;)

I just merged this into the right place.

The problem with those three covers is known. There was a mistake made when uploading them ( I did it ;D ) and now they are floating somewhere in our database. Snowcone knows the situation and when he finds some time he will repair them(only he can do).

In most of these cases there is actually nothing wrong.

What happened is that the name of the game was added to the directory, but no cover has yet been created or uploaded. This is actually very common in the NES ans SNES sections.

At some point in time an admin found a list of known U.S. SNES games and copied/pasted that entire list to the SNES game directory.

Uh-oh, there's a mistake in the "Dig Dug Deeper" cover for PC.
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=10723

The person who made it is not jonsered, is me: johnsprogram.
In fact, I remembered vividly that I wrote my name down in full. I'm not sure how it was happened, but ok.

Also, since i'm on here, the cover for "Motocross Maniacs" for the Gameboy is "not" the real cover. I'm not saying to remove it, I'm just wanted to let you know that it should be considered a custom cover because I've seen actual boxes of that game that doesn't match with the current so-called "retail cover".

The mistakes thedrowningman is pointing out are simple spelling mistakes, my bad. My first covers i make when trying out a new template often have little mistakes and inconsistencies that i didn't iron out prior finishing the template.

The mistakes Jonesat is referring to are intentional, all the grammatical errors are word for word from the original box.

Now maybe this is just me, but wouldnt it make more sense to correct the spelling errors regarless of whether its present on the original box or not and fix the mistakes they made? I think I would rather have a cover with correct spelling even if the original has spelling errors.

That stinks man.
This can happen to anyone.  My hard-drive took a crap several months ago.  So, if anyone needs a place to store their working files and so forth I am offering, as before, free FTP service for any cover artist.  This is the best way that I can contribute to this project.  PM me if you require this service.

And again, that really stinks man...

Also, I don't want to be an ass, but too late:
Quote from: Doom, in the Lumberjack42 Era, in a Secret Place
Maybe we Gurus should upload a backup of our work

So if anybody else pulls an eightcell (although he probably left out of necessity, not choice) we have a backup for someone else in case they want an in development cover that never got published.

OK, paint still shows 96 DPI. Almost all other covers downloaded show up correctly in paint.

Cover shows up the correct 3366 x 2100, but wants to print out in too big because even after the 4th download, paint insists it 96 DPI.

But no worries, after resizing 32% it prints out fine from paint too.

 :D

But your right Photoshop CS3 says it is 300 PPI ( peepee eye ;D)

And I have only had problems with less than 10 covers before, when printing from paint.

I have had one or two covers do that, it's often because it is indeed saved at 96dpi (paint didn't do it). I usually just open them in GIMP and fix the DPI settings and try again.

There's an error in the labeling of the recently posted Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom cover for the Wii. There are two versions of the game, Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Cross Generation of Heroes, and Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom: Ultimate All-Stars. The former was released in 2008 in Japan only, while the latter was a worldwide release a few months ago. Right now there is one cover each for both games, but both are filed under just "Tatsunoko Vs. Capcom".

The game was only released in Japan, though the same engine was used for a remodeled American version titled WCW vs. nWo: World Tour. The game introduced Asmik Ace Entertainment's acclaimed grappling system. It also included wrestlers from major Japanese promotions such as New Japan Pro Wrestling and All Japan Pro Wrestling but also included characters from America, such as those from WCW.

Gamefaqs lists them (also) as separate games, so dunno.

Isn't Virtual Pro Wrestling 64 the same thing as WCW vs. nWo World Tour?
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=11127
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=586

They're similar, but different enough to warrant separate entries imo.

Wow, i just checked out the game and i MUST have it!  Another AKI wrestling game for n64, YES!  It is very similar to world tour but i do agree that it is different enough ... therefore i'm now looking into how to play NTSC-J N64 games on my NTSC-U N64  :P

EDIT: Awesome! there is a 2nd one too that is pretty much like WrestleMania 2000 .... i love japan  :)

In the future please always just overwrite your old cover with the new fixed one!!! This prevents confusion in the publishing process. You can just overwrite your old cover with a new one by uploading it under the exact same file name!

Yeah those are those that are @ 72DPI in size of a bed sheet. Just select to print them in 32% size and they come out perfect.

Something is wrong with the dragonwarrior page

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=1937

it wont print out properly. Ive trieed several differnt programs and all of them dont format it right when you print it out (its like zoomed in a crap ton you get only a tiny corner of the cover) I thought i had just forgotten how to do this but then i tried the other covers i had grabbed and they all work fine, the DW 2 alt on that page works too

Q: I used the printing FAQ but this cover is printing out way too large, what's going on?
A: The DPI is incorrect. Please report this in the Point out mistakes to be fixed (http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=307.0) thread. In the mean time you can fix this pretty easily yourself by doing the following:

In photoshop, going to Image > Image Size, unchecking the box that says "resample image", and changing the resolution to 300 pixels/inch

In GIMP, goign to Image > Print Size and changing the X and Y resolutions to 300 pixels/inch

In MS Paint, go to file > page setup > scale to 32%

We're talking specifically about the area behind the encircled Nintendo logo. The rest of the template is black, yes, but the area behind the Nintendo logo within the oval is white on pretty much ever other NES cover. Compare Super Mario Bros. to Kirby's Adventure and it'll be apparent.

It can be tricky to spot, but it's quite clear when you have them printed out and sitting next to each other, like I do. Look only at the Nintendo logo on the spine. Most are red and white, these ones are red and black. I am positive I am not nuts. Well, not about this, at least.

In the Nintendo 64 section, shouldn't the Deadly Arts cover and the G.A.S.P. label be together? They're the same game, just released under a different name in the US.

Jikkyou Oshaberi Parodius: Forever with Me - Japan - Saturn - saturn_jikkyouoshaberiparodiusforeverwithme_jp.jpg
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=8046

when downloaded do not open and state that their file headers can't be read. I've tried donwloading them with multiple browsers and have cleared my cache, all temp files, cookies, etc. to no avail.

Looking over my old posts and I just noticed that this cover still does not download correctly and continues to give an error message when opened.

This cover still doesn't download correctly and gives header errors...

Another Nintendo 64 one.

Is it possible to link Lylat Wars and Starfox 64, so that all the covers are listed together, but can still be found under 'Lylat Wars' and 'Starfox 64'?

If not, maybe just merge them together under Starfox 64? Or just move the Lylat Wars vertical cover from 'Starfox 64' to 'Lylat Wars'?

Does no one remember the limited character space before the current RAW section?  SNow allowed more characters to be viewed in the name at the time.  Now that we dont have to worry how long a name can be, there is no sence shortening my name to show the full name of the cover.  That would be why I shortened it

I love that there's room for a games full name. I do kinda miss the preview we used to get when you hovered over a link. Mainly because there's quite a few raws that don't have the games name at all. They're just labeled "img1, img2, img3 etc..." or something similar.  Look in the 32x raws folder for an example. Also the last 28 or so in the ps2 folder. I'm not complaining, but it makes it hard for all of us  here to have to click on each one to see what cover it is. Maybe one day when someone gets time those links can be updated. Maybe even change some of the shortened versions members used to use to save space. An example would be "vf4e" in the ps2 folder. You guys might know that's Virtua Fighter 4 Evolution, but I didn't. The raws section would really rock then.

The "Spider-Man" labels actually belong to Amazing Spider-Man vs. The Kingpin, The (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=7606) and the black label... woah. When one is clicked it is named "Custom Label" and the unclicked one is named "Label".  But when you click the "Label" persay, the one you just clicked turns into "Custom Label".  Ha?

Regardless (though it was amusing =D) the black label (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=11477) is the retail and the red label (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=11478) is a custom label for those who wish to conform to the red.

This is a problem in the programming of the site. Nothing I can do about. By the way labels are always labeled as label no matter if they are custom or retail. The same is with cds.

I've noticed a couple of errors with the barcodes, particularly with the old Gameboy games (though not limited to Gameboy). In particular I've noticed:

Super Mario Land (which is using the same barcode as Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles II: Fall of the Foot Clan) should have the following barcode: 045496 730048

Mega Man Zero 4 (which is using the barcode for Megaman Battle Network 4: Red Sun) should have the following barcode: 013388 28278

For some, this might not seem like a big deal, but it's not accurate and it interferes with my organization, as I organize my videogames by barcode.

It's a simple to follow organization scheme that automatically puts the games in order by company, then release date. It keeps all games in their proper order, so you know sequels will follow the previous incarnation, unlike the more common alphabetical order (which would put Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story before Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time, and both would be listed before Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga). The only time this causes a discrepancy is when you have a rerelease of a game (such as Sonic Adventure DX, which was released after Sonic Adventure 2 Battle), and even then you can still argue that it's in a correct order, since it is in order of that version's release, not the original.

I know it's an odd format, but it makes perfect sense to me, and I do keep certain game types separate (Handheld games are separate from disk based consoles, and both are separate from cartridge based consoles). My only real gripe with the system I have is that I can't use it for movie DVDs, since the UPCs for those appear to be completely random. I still don't see any conceivable pattern.

"(which would put Mario and Luigi: Bowser's Inside Story before Mario and Luigi: Partners in Time, and both would be listed before Mario and Luigi: Superstar Saga)"

I have my collection alphabetically, but then when it comes to instances like this, I just put them in their proper order. I don't find it off-putting having Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time before Legend of Zelda: Majora's Mask, or UEFA Euro 2008 inbetween FIFA 08 and FIFA 09, or 2010 FIFA World Cup between FIFA 10 and FIFA 11.

As most people do, and I don't fault them for it or anything, I simply prefer my method. Actually, alphabetical order is what I use for my movies, since again, the UPCs are everywhere and don't seem to organize anything in any order. And with sequels, I put them in proper order, one right next to the other. I have Dark Knight right after Batman Begins and Batman: Gotham Knight, instead of separated by all the "C"s.

that's really cool and interesting actually.

Didn't realize there was such a pattern in the UPCs. I always thought it was random. So do you not worry about separating based on console? Like you'll have dreamcast games stuck between ps2 games and whatnot?

Well, my Gamecube games are intermixed with my Wii games, and my GB, GBC, GBA, and DS games are intermixed, but they're separate from each other. When I buy the UGC, my cartridges will be separate from the disk based and the portable games. I haven't yet decided if I should intermix my Xbox 360 games and my PC games with my GCN and Wii games, but since I only have a couple of games for either (I'm fairly new to the world of Microsoft consoles, and most of my games for both Xbox 360 and PC are from the XBLA and Steam respectively), I'm not rushing to make that decision. I may, at a later date, decide to separate every game first by console, then UPC number, but for now I'm happy with how it's set up.

I'd add a picture to show you, but I don't have a working camera and I don't want to drive this thread anymore off topic.

I van try to get it right this time if i can controll my typing.

edit; Actually the 6Player is like that on the real case? I guess its because its the name of the adapter, on the case its says 6Player with a little tm symbol after it so like 6Playertm multi-player adapter, Ill throw that tm in there.

edit again: its funny on the actual case it says oppenent's - also i do have an apostrophe in there, should there not be one?

My English would say it's eitherOpponent's if evading one enemy is meant or Opponents' if evading many is meant.

All Characters can jump to the foreground, middleground, and background to evade their oppenent's attacks.

this is what mine says

All characters can jump to the foreground, middleground, and background to evade their opponent's attacks.
      ^ I took away the capital c                                                        changed the e to an o ^

Streets of Rage
StreetSmart
Target Earth
Valis

Adventures of Batman & Robin listed as XXXXXXXXXXXXX

NES
The 2 PAL versions of Ufouria are named and listed under Metal Storm.

The labels are custom. If you click on them though you see Label as decriptor. Has sth to do with background stuff (how everything works in the uploads department ;) ).

Batman & Robin can't be fixed right now unfortunately but will be in time.

I'll take care of the rest and more.

I noticed a couple typos on Vt102's X-Men vs. Street Fighter Saturn cover.
In the first sentence in the description on the back:
"...Marvel's mighty mutants against Campom's legendary..."
And in the first bullet point:
"The mone version of the..."
I also checked out the X-men vs. Street Fighter PS1 cover, and it has a few typos too.
In the big tagline on the top of the back cover:
"Only one fighting game is big enoph to hold them both!"
(And if you care to get picky, there's an apostrophe missing in the last sentence of the description:)
"...universes in the worlds most amazing..."

Thanks!

No disrespect to the original creator of the US retail Super Mario All-Stars cover for the SNES, but it looks like a mess. The disparity between some of the black sections lessens when you print it out, but the screenshots print out very blurry (low res?) and I believe that the logo on the spine is far bigger than on the orgininal box. Would anyone be able to clean it up a bit?

This Legend of Zelda: A Link to the Past label is categorized as a custom cover, when it's obviously not a cover, but a label that may or may not be custom (I don't have my copy of ALttP on me right now, and even if I did, it's not Brazillian).

You can insert an advanced description (label) in the sub-field when adding a label as a custom cover though. Then it says custom cover on the left field but on the right individual cover section it says label as a description.

This must have been lost somewhere over time as many of the N64 labels are listed as "Label" or "Game Cart Label" on the left side.

Kind of like when we used to get a preview of a raw scan when hovering over the link (I miss that one).

Jup. In the old admining system we had a descriptor for lable which put itself in the left side and right beneath the cover preview thumb. It's different for now.

The preview thing in the raw section was deactivated because it produced massive bandwidth usage.

No I didn't read the posts above right away, it just stood out to me because it was listed as a Label while viewing the other items on that page, but then changed to Custom Cover when going to that individual item. Might just be my opinion, but this probably should change because it can be confusing at a glance.

I have noticed that this is quite common here, that is not bother to read more than 1 or two posts back, or it might be that people read these topic without logging in, just questimating in which topics you can find new posts. And then when they realize that a topic contained new posts, the topic has gone on page or so, thus decreasing the probability of all posts to be read. This goes especially to the people who don't come here many times a day (SHAME ON YOU).

I made this post independently, maybe i should have posted it here, i'll copy/paste:

Hi, i've been downloading some of these covers (which is an awesome idea) for some time. Anyways, some of them have still not been retouched, finished or edited.

In the case of retail vertical n64 it's all right, but still some covers seem to lack some color. banjo kazooie, cruisin' USA, diddy kong racing, DK 64, F Zero, paper mario star fox 64 and mario 64. I still haven't printed any of these, so maybe the color is not such an issue.

in snes retail vertical covers i have found some little flaws:

 Castlevania IV: there are a lot of black marks in the background, like some imperfections were just covered with a black marker.

 Megaman X: Still some marks of the scan show.

 Megaman x3: Same problem, but less noticeable.

 Street Fighter II turbo: the black marks on the background

 Street Fighter II: The same

 Sunset riders: lots of white spots on the back cover (well, i don't know if the retail was like that)

 Super GAMEBOY: mismatch in the colors in the background. (the black color)

 Super Metroid: background black color

 Super punch out: needs a lot of fixing.

and that's all, sorry if i am being a little bit too picky checking these covers, besides those things you all have done a very nice work.

Oh God, don't dig up what was put to rest over on my Re-Scan of N64 Covers (http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=4005.0) thread.  Personally, most to all horizontal N64 cases are no longer up to par with today's standards of the site.  I again would like to thank all of those who spent a crap load of money to scan the boxes, but from the 7-8 months that that thread has past, you must admit by now that the quality is not good.

I agree! I have gone through all the covers and have come up with this list of covers that have something wrong with them. There might be a few more items/covers I didn't catch...but who knows...

All-Star Baseball 2001 - N64 logo is cut off at the end
Asteroids 64 - "dark" N64 logo
Automobili Lamborghini - dirty N64 logo
Bass Hunter 64- bid ol' white sticker on back
Blast corps - marker on bar code
Chameleon twist - Red band letters are cut off
FIFA 64' Red band letters are cut off
Knockout Kings 2000 - Bar code is wornout/off looks horrible.
Mike Piazza's Strike Zone - the barcode has the word "PUT" from a marker.
NFL QB Club 2001 - Has TWO stickers on the cover; one on the front that says "NEW RELEASE!" and another yellow one on the back.
NHL 99 - Has a yellow stick on the front of the cover
Olympic Hockey 98 - Red band letters are cut off
Quake II - Does the NTSC spine have the Nintendo 64 on it and in red?
Ridge Racer 64 - Has a sticker on the back of the cover.
Shadow Man - The NTSC spine does not say nintendo 64 and is not black.
Super Bowling - Big ol' white sticker on the FRONT of the cover!
Transformers: Beast Wars - The bottom half of the red bar is grainy looks very bad.
Turok: Rage Wars - Is the NTSC spine really say nintendo 64 and black?
Waialae Country Club - On the spine the word Country the "C" is partly cut off.
WWF Attitude - Bar code is wornout/off looks horrible.
WWF War Zone - the barcode has the word "PUT" from a marker.

ShoothimNow, you are right about the N64 area of the site, we are almost there! We just need to polish it up and bust a move on to the Vertical covers!  ;)

Theoretically this post is not suppose to be in the "Point out mistakes to be fixed" as these are simply requests, (in my mind, this thread is to state is there is a typo or incorrect barcode number on say... my damned Adventures of Batman and Robin (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=4285) cover that I guess ill fess up to right now).

But to answer you, I just bought WWF War Zone, Automobili Lamborghini,
Cruisin' USA, Diddy Kong Racing, Donkey Kong 64, F-Zero X, and StarFox 64 for $1.99 each complete in boxes at a salvation army.  Have not had time to scan them, and I am still waiting on Cone to fix the upload forum

I see that someone uploaded my Genghis Khan cover for the Genesis.  ;D

Two things though:
1.) The SNES version has the full name (Genghis Khan II: Clan of the Grey Wolf) whereas the Genesis version just says Genghis Khan 2. This can be slightly confusing.

2.) Not necessarily an issue, but it says created by Anonymous. While I don't want to be overly sensitive about credit (after all, what does my screen name mean to anyone in the real world anyway?) but I had hoped that my first cover to make it to the site would have my name. Certainly I wouldn't want anyone to go out of their way to change this, but if you're already in there changing the name of the game, I'd really appreciate it!

Edit: If not possible, then don't worry about my name. I'm not quite sure how the upload process works sans uploader.

Two things - both with the custom FaceBall 2000 Game Boy cover that was uploaded.

First, the custom cover is now the only one uploaded.  Apparently, it overrode the retail cover. :(

Second, for what it's worth, you cannot use the Four-Player Adapter to play 5+ players on FaceBall 2000.  It just won't work. You have to have specially modified cables to do it.

Gradius III for SNES (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=2317), the image is set to 200 pixels/inch instead of 300.

Nothing we can do about as a downscaled pic is unrepairable. Needs replacement although the cover looks perfect and maybe the original was at 300dpi and was just downscaled by accident prior to upload.

The above link by Seraph Man gives you to a "red x" like this (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=3504) instead of what the cover looks like.

Are all the ones with a red x instead of a preview of the cover bad? I saw a couple (from Vt102 and Lumberjack42, I think) the other day. I didn't try to download them, so I didn't realize they were broken. I'll see if I can find them again.  


EDIT: Ok, here's one by Vt102 (Army Men: Sarge's Heroes on PS1).

Hey guys, first of all I just want to say thank you to everybody who's contributed to this site.  I discovered it a few months ago, and have had some great results boxing my games - I'm still the process of putting my NES games in UGC's, but I'm doing about 5-10 per week when I have time...  Slowly but surely.

One "mistake" I wanted to point out is in the NES cover section.  It's for the cover for Nintendo's Tetris (not the Tengen version)

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=2752

I noticed after I printed it, that the cover seems to be shifted too far to the right?  So after printing, the spine of the cover doesn't line up properly.. I'm sure it's an easy fix, but I'm not a wizard with photoshop sadly.

Thanks, just figured I'd let (whoever) know.

Aw, if I'd have known a pro was going to do it I wouldn't have edited it on my own last week.  ;)

Since we're on the subject, there are a few inconsistencies I've noticed when printing out labels for my collection.  Zelda and Zelda II's Nintendo logo on the spine is much larger than the rest of the games.  Luckily for me (since I have no graphics skills) it was easy enough to just copy/paste the smaller logo from another cover, centre, and recolour.  Also, Kung Fu Heroes is the only one I saw that uses a black Nintendo logo on the spine (except for Dragon Warrior I which was done a long time ago according to Arseen so I'm guessing there was no standard set at the time).  The Sunsoft logo on Blaster Master is partially missing, and the Capcom logo on the spine of Mickey Mousecapades is off-centre.  All except the Blaster Master one I was able to fix myself without any hassle, though.  Considering I have about 120 labels printed for my NES games I'm amazed at how high-quality the covers are on this site, if there were only a few small inconsistencies among all that.  Truly a testament to the skills of the artists and admins here.  :)

Duck Hunt is old cover (as in done when the quality standart were less strickt), hence the dirt and pixelation. It will print out fine though, EXCEPT FOR THE SEALS OF QUALITY WHICH ARE FADED TO NEARLY INVISIBLE!

But the Gyromitr cover is perfect. I have printed that out and nothing wrong with it.

Sorry to say but that's your print that is screwed.
I have used same paper brand and type (HP semi-gloss photopaper always) with same printer settings always.
I just checked and compared my print of the cover with other NES black serie covers and the color are same pure black with identical red tone of the Nintendo logo.

Ok, please stop posting if a cover has "bad quality".  This isn't a "mistake" that is needed to be "fixed".  A "mistake" is a typo on "Teh Flintsnoes" or something equivalent.  Make a new thread or something named "Point out Covers that need Re-uploaded" or something if you want better cover quality.  This is not the thread to ask it on.  This is if a bar code is wrong, or the RARE logo was left on a Midway game, or something is misspelled, or the dimensions of the cover are off, etc.  NOT if the quality is up to standards.  So please stop!

I printed it out a few days ago and there was definitely a difference in colors. Not a very obvious difference, but a difference nonetheless. I'm not sure if my eyes are playing tricks on me or not, but I can tell you with certainty that the cover looks a bit faded. I haven't changed my printing methods or ink cartridges either. All the covers I printed after this one turned out fine.

Not exactly .....
Pocket Monsters Stadium and Pokemon Stadium's numbers don't correlate.
(Think of the numbering system in Final Fantasy on the SNES)

Pocket Monsters Stadium = Not released outside of Japan
Pocket Monsters Stadium 2 = Pokemon Stadium
Pocket Monsters Stadium Kin Gin = Pokemon Stadium 2

All of Shenske's custom gold Tengen NES games, since unlisenced, shouldn't have the official seal of quality and Nintendo Entertainment System logos on the front and should be replaced with the rectangle Tengen info box as seen on this cover:

For the NES game "The Adventures of Rad Gravity", under the Activision logo it reads "This game pak cannot be used with the Mattel or NES versions of the Nintendo Entertainment system."

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=4926

I believe the retail cover had the Activision logo more to the left and underneath "By Interplay."

Probably there isn't good enough cover to upload and link to, and none of cover creating masters seem to need it.
That's the reason.

Underlined is the thing to resolve this.

Really?! It's the same raw that was uploaded w/o cleaning up before, and it's 300 dpi. I figured if cleaned up by an admin, it'd be good to go. Seeing as how right now when you go to DL NHL '94 you get a MK raw instead, this would be preferred...

Hello.

I not did find a thread to do this so if there's one apologies. When I download the first cover here (it's the first one on my end, the one with the bright yellow "SIM") it seemed corrupt, the bottom half was completely grey. If this can be confirmed you might would like to restore that from a backup or have the user re-upload it.

Hey everyone,

There are a few elements of some covers which I plan to print that could be improved. Some are cosmetic flaws, and others are personal preferences. Let me know what you think, and if anyone would be willing to implement these changes, I'd greatly appreciate it.

NES - The Legend of Zelda - NTSC - Retail:

The Seal of Quality, Nintendo logo, and images on the back of the box are blurry. "Nintendo Entertainment System" on upper spine slightly disproportionate to other covers. Nintendo logo missing from bottom of spine (compared to all other Nintendo NES games)

NES - Zelda II: The Adventure of Link - NTSC - Retail:

The Seal of Quality, Nintendo logo, and images on the back of the box are blurry. "Nintendo Entertainment System" on upper spine slightly disproportionate to other covers. Nintendo logo missing from bottom of spine (Compared to all other Nintendo NES games)

SNES - Aladdin - NTSC - Retail

The color of the image of the front of this cover, as well as the screenshots on the back, seems to be muted (compared to the custom vertical). Also, black around text on the back is not of a consistent shade throughout.

SNES - Super Mario All-Stars - NTSC - Retail

Unfortunately, this cover is a bit of a mess. There are numerous occurrences of inconsistencies in the black, the Super Mario All-Stars logo on the spine is disproportioned (blew up or stretched), the spine is missing the Nintendo logo, and the screenshots on the back are blurry. The whole cover may need a tune up in the color department as well.

SNES - Ys III: Wanderers From Ys - NTSC - Retail

The screenshots on the back of this cover appear to be pictures of a television displaying the game.

Speaking of Ys III on the SNES, it also has the "Super Nintendo Entertainment System" box at the top of the spine. I've noticed that a few other horizontal retail covers of SNES also have this, although the majority do not. It is a feature consistent with the Custom Vertical SNES covers. Would it be possible to remove it and reposition the game's title on the spine at the top to match the majority of the other SNES retails? This also appears on the Skyblazer and Battletoads retails, as well as a few others. Unfortunately, it seems as though there was never an established format for SNES retail covers. Due to the majority of my other SNES games not having that on the spine, I would love to get versions of said covers that also do not have that.

Thanks everyone. Let me know your thoughts.

I know that these two are being worked on (or at least they're going to be worked on soon). A lot of NES covers are getting overhauls.

The site used to have much lower quality standards than we do now (even if back then we were STILL better than the handful of other game cover sites). Those covers you talk about are from those days.

Hey Brandon1090.

Any chance you can update the spine on your Cool Spot, Bubsy 1 & 2 and Kid Kleets cover? This is what I mentioned about how these would end up getting uploaded as a "Retail Cover" even tho the spine isnt exactly retail. You did a good job on the covers and it would be cool if they were 100% retail so theres absolutely no reason to ever update them again. If its 100%, you can get any better than that.

Actually I asked him precisly about that prior to me uploading them and he told me that all those spines are retail. I simply haven't got the time to check them for quality and double check if those are really completely retail. *sigh* He also gave me sooooo many covers which allready are on our site and even made by him again with no alteration.

Post by: Brandonh1091 on December 10, 2011, 08:01:01 PM
Sorry I would've responded sooner but I just opened up this thread this evening.

I had originally sent Tik a link to a .zip folder that contained around 40 or so covers, all with the custom, uniform style spine. Soon after BadChad asked if I minded going 100% retail, I went through and updated them all, and re-uploaded the .zip folder to mediafire. I assumed Tik hadn't downloaded it yet since the download counter was still at 0, so I went ahead and updated the file thinking everything was fine. That was the only reason I PM'd Tik and said that the SNES covers were indeed 100% retail. It wasn't until I saw 3-4 of the covers uploaded to the site that I realized what had happened.

I sincerely apologize for the mix-up, and I've since sent the updated link to Tik for approval.

However, with that being said:


...He also gave me sooooo many covers which allready are on our site and even made by him again with no alteration. God knows why.

Actually, I'm quite certain there wasn't a single cover in that .zip that was already on the site, and if there did happen to be one that ended up in there by accident, it certainly wasn't as many as you made it out to be. There are quite a few vertical custom versions of retail styled covers I already have on the site, but I checked and double checked that before I even sent the original file. If I overlooked one in that original .zip file (long since deleted or I'd check myself) I do apologize, but I'm almost 100% certain they're all brand new.
Title: Re: Point out mistakes to be fixed
Post by: shenske on December 10, 2011, 08:02:46 PM
Yeah both of those mistakes were my bad. Switching the case type is easy. I accidently named my NeoGeo game the same as the7k's so our system replaced his with a duplicate of mine. I'll pm snowcone about the mistake and pm the7k to get his cover back up.

Sorry about that guys

Actually the covers I uploaded (after heavy cleaning and color fixing) were the only ones in the big foilder which were new. Two or three other ones were beyond my ambition to make them up to our sites standard (unclean, etc.) and around 20 or more were duplicates!!! There was not one vertical cover in the zip by the way and all had the uniform spines. So what the hell happened? Did I download a completely wrong zip or what?

Evidently that's got to be what had to have happened.

I apologize for wasting your time with that crap. I've been racking my brain like crazy trying to figure out what in the hell could have happened, and that's got to be it.

That is 100% the correct zip folder.

Shouldnt this have been filed as retail since its a "full retail" cover?
http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=12404

I know it sounds like alot of work but when I get my access to our database, I wouldnt mind changing all of our NES covers with the spine to "custom", and have our actual retail covers filed as "retail" like our SNES games. Especially since actual retail covers have been showing up more and more on the site.

I also wouldnt mind going back and converting all the NES covers Ive made so far to actual retail so we can have both on the site. Im already way too far in printing out the spine covers for my NES and SNES games or els I probably would have took the full retail look.

So I didn't know where to put this because it's not a specific fix but just a thought. A LOT of the covers here (as amazing as they are) contain major spelling errors. I don't expect anyone to go back and fix those that already exist but for future covers if people could run spell check before flattening their images I would be much happier. Sorry if that sounds OCD but I figured I would say something about it because it's an easy fix.

Actually, that's what this thread is for. We fully intend on going back and fixing whatever spelling errors you come across. So please, point them out so they can be fixed.

As for future images, sometimes misspellings just fall under the radar. That's why tend to post them on the threads first, so others can take a look and see if everything is up to standards.

Well in that case I'll start looking through them :D

1. Vertical Mario 64 -- the word "combing" should be combining.
2. Vertical Yoshi Story-- (on site but not yet in the database) "al" should be all.
3. Vertical A bug's life -- (on site but not yet in the database) "outmaneuver" should have a space in it.
4. Vertical TMNT Tournament Fighters-- "should" should be shoulder
5. Vertical Battletoads in Battlemaniacs- "the the" should be changed to just the....there was also something else wrong but I don't remember what it was off the top of my head.

Anyway I'll list more later when I have the covers in front of me. I'm not home right now and this was just the stuff I could remember looking at the other day. Hope this helps! Once again great job guys! I don't want anyone to feel hurt by me pointing this stuff out, I just think you guys work so hard to make amazing covers that little things like spelling shouldn't get in the way of perfection.

I just want to add a note for the critics abound the forum:
keep in mind that many published covers and manuals contain spelling errors. I have found two errors in the Brett Hull Hockey '95 manual (penalties and simultaneously.) Some collectors may want the errors to preserve the manuals or covers as they are within their collection. Therefore, some errors may be deliberate. Perhaps one could check the cover/manual first, then post to the thread.

Outmanoeuvre is a word - and none of the others would come up in a spell check.  They need to be proof read before posting to the site.
Title: Re: Point out mistakes to be fixed

Fair enough, I did not know outmaneuver was one word. It appears it's time to update my dictionary because it's not in there but I checked now online and you are right! And grammar check would have picked up "the the" (green underline in word not red) but yeah the point is still the same: proofread or spell check don't just copy and paste from gamefaqs because they tend to have errors there.

Outmanoeuvre is a word - and none of the others would come up in a spell check.  They need to be proof read before posting to the site.

It should be noted that proofreading your own work is a bad idea.  Missing your own mistakes is VERY likely since you made them in the 1st place. You may very well think that what you wrote is correct, or just not notice the mistakes.  You're already aware of what you wrote, so you tend to read through it very quickly and without the scrutiny that a third party would.

If possible, get a girlfriend, wife, brother/sister, or someone to look it over.  Using Word is a great idea as others have suggested.  It will catch grammar mistakes that InDesign and Illustrator aren't capable of.

Really? I thought it was yours. Most of your other covers (Genesis I mean) didn't make it by the way because their dimensions were wrong for UGCs.

Ok then we have another problem. We have different dimensions for Genesis cases because we allready have some Genesis case covers on our site which have other dimensions. Another thing. Just uploading Genesis case size covers won't do any good as in my book those are still just an alternative to our standard which is UGC. So please if you upload covers for such cart games always also include UGC versions if they aren't on the site allready.

Edit: They are still on the server but as I said we have a dimension problem going on here. By the way I just downloaded one of grumbledukes Genesis case covers:

3200 x 2044 pixels @ 300dpi

Your Genesis case covers:

3165 x 1987 pixels @ 300dpi

So did grum change his template?

Post by: wiggy on March 04, 2012, 10:44:47 PM
Something that would be so mondo helpful on this site would be a thread/sub-forum where people could see what progress is being made on upload inspection and whether or not they make the grade and why.  There's too many threads with people all bent about "where are the covers that I uploaded?!" and whatnot.  If people could actually see why coves aren't making it, then maybe they wouldn't keep making the same mistakes over and over, AND it could've helped avoid what seems like a dispute over a technical issue that you guys are having right now :/

I know that wold be a rather large undertaking (I've admin'd a few forums myself), but I really feel that would be a HUGE help for everyone involved.

No idea if grum changed dimensions on the template.  I just used the template hosted here as a base.  Will download a fresh version and double check the dimensions.

As for having to upload a UGC version as well as a standard version,  I find this a bit ridiculous.  Genesis and master system games came in clamshells, not ugc's.  I know that the site adopted ugc's as standard,but I would put money on me not being the only person who uses original sized clam shells for these games.   If the rule is going to be enforced to upload UGC along with genesis case size,  is the law going to be enforced the other way around,  so that if a UGC sized case is upped,the original case must be too?

I'm not trying to be awkward here,  and I will double check the dimension issue.

I can convert  what I uploaded to UGC size if you can pm me a list of the covers that are in limbo,  but not until after I return from vacation.  Tomorrow I hit Vegas baby! :)

Strange. Seems like grum changed the dimensions sometime ago. Because his older Genesis case covers have those other dimensions.

For an explanation why to use UGC is that 70% percent of the clamshells you get used Mega drive games in look less then stellar and surely not like-new as new UGCs look like. There also is no real source to get new Genesis cases apart from some sick people on Ebay charging ridiculous prices. Not to mention the amount of loose carts you get. Etc etc. So as I said UGC still should be the way to go. This is not about enforcing anything but using the most easily and cheaply available solution there is. Genesis case can always be uploaded as an alternative if someone wishes too but why should it be the first to choose?

EDIT: The Terminator cover is yours by the way. Just checked on our server.

EDIT2: Have a nice holiday! Hope you won't come back with empty pockets. ;)

I learned something from my NES cover for P.O.W. the other day: apparently "LICENSED" is actually spelled "LICENStED".

I have no idea if that has already been fixed, or if it's a typo on the original box.

Those errors can happen when a script fails to establish a connection to a mysql server, thus failing to generate a successful resource (which makes all subsequent scripts calling that resource fail and generate warnings).  This can be because of scripting errors (which is unlikely in this case because with a scripting error it will NEVER work until the script is manually fixed) or a server that can glitch out and stop responding to requests or just stop working in general.  This likely means that the server that stores the SQL database has gone offline, which is why the outage typically only lasts for a few minutes at a time (perhaps a reboot).  Aside from changing server providers, there's not a lot that TCP could do to fix it.

Edit: Also, given the max_user_connections error, it could be that too many people are trying to load the site at the same time.  I'm not sure the max user setting is something TCP has direct control over, though.

Post by: WolfAlmighty on October 08, 2012, 03:49:54 PM
It might show up on the error.log file in Apache (assuming the provider is using Apache) whenever someone gets this error, especially if PHP isn't able to recognise a valid mysql connection and tries to use a function that calls one, but it's unlikely he digs through the error.log file regulary, especially if the file itself gets gargantuan and takes forever to load (I've mistakenly scripted errors that cause a single page to generate a 300MB error file which causes Notepad to choke on its crackers when it tries to read it  ;D ).  Definitely something to look into since this site is become more awesome every day.  Hopefully the max users is something the service provider will let him adjust.

A mistake on a very big game: 007 Goldeneye (N64).  On the vertical covers for I believe both the NTSC and PAL versions it has a grammatical error that my friend embarrassingly pointed out.

At the end of the first paragraph on the back the last sentence just reads "Moneypenny offers you're off!".  Doesn't make much sense...

I can't tell if this is an error or if it just looked funny originally, but the cover for Amped 2 on the original Xbox looks like it's mismatched from the back to the spine. Tell me if I'm crazy. This is on both the NTSC and PAL versions. I just bought this disc by itself and I'd like a nice cover. Thanks!

The NES logo on the spine of Zelda II is too big compared to the other NES covers.

I made a semi fixed stand in to keep the case warm until someone does a better job.  I changed the gold to match TLOZ from the main page, along with the nintendo logo on the spine and tried to make some things a little less blurry.  Like I said, it's a semi-decent place holder and you're welcome to it if you like.

Thanks! The Legend of Zelda Cover is beautiful. I wish someone would make one just as good, for the sequel. Your edited version is definitely a step in the right direction. Yours will be my go-to cover. If I had the savvy, I'd attempt to make one as good as TLOZ. I'd really like to see a better Empire Strikes Back (Nes) cover uploaded as well. Seems the sequels don't get as much care as the originals.

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=2653
Spine, at the bottom, the Nintendo Logo should be horizontal, not vertical, most of our GBC covers that use this logo on the spine, it's horizontal, not vertical

This is labeled as an American cover, what does it have a PAL rating on the bottom left, front cover, that G is not the ESRB of America, it needs to be removed

Spine, bottom, Nintendo logo is to close to the edge, bump it up a lil' higher

Another cover labeled as American, but with a PAL rating at the bottom left corner of the front cover, it needs to be removed. Also on the spine, we don't need that free card offer on the spine, that's overkill, also no pill shaped Nintendo logo on the bottom of the spine.

It hink all these are from the old times when consistence was what it was.

As for the Mario Tennis cover, the PAL cover has the black logo you're after.
So if someone prefers it over the far better looking silver (;D) they can copy paste it from there in MS Paint.
There is no point of having 4 different covers that differ very little.

Sorry Arseen,  there's still a few problems:

First cover has increadible instead of incredible.

second cover says "f all-ime" instead of "OF ALL-TIME"

The first point in the green box on the first cover says Mickey Moust - with a T instead of an E

The second point on the second cover has the word OF missing where it says "six Mickeys"


First says 1994, second says 1992 - which is correct?  The SNS codes differ too.

Fire Emblem (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=19) and Sonic Advance 2 (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=61) for GBA are not the correct sizes. They both seem to be too short on both ends.

Not really sure if you guys can fix this since it would probably require brand new scans, but I figured I'd at least mention it here.

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=5462 This cover is one of the most popular for FF7, but examine the back/bottom left. It says “Company  copyright etc… and Fake St. blah blah blah." Is there a way to change this? It looks very unprofessional.

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=7550 Can you change the PS logo on the top part of the spine to white like the other covers instead of black, most of the psx covers have a white P, not black.

Harvest Moon (Game Boy Color) This cover needs to be created for a custom DS case cover.

Pointing out mistakes for custom covers is almost a lost cause unless you directly contact the original designer. Don't waste your time here.
Also, there's no need to mention low res. covers on a "Point out mistakes to be fixed" list, we already know about it, we just need HQ scans and people willing to spare its time with the community.

Don't fight futile battles my friend :)

I'm not sure if this is the proper place to post my issue, and if it is not I apologize. I recently made a cover for Monopoly for the Sega Genesis using user videogametrader's raw scan.

You normally just pick the closest thing to it. It's real people that look at the covers that are done, so it may take some time. If the cover is good enough, then they will upload it. But if you actually look at the guidelines, they are fairly strict.

Thanks for the quick reply. There was a game title which appeared to be reserved for games with no entry so I used that. I didn't realize there was a cover review process, that's good to know. I looked around for an official guideline for cover creation but didn't see anything in the FAQs, Guides, and Templates section of the forum. If someone could point me toward it, it would be much appreciated. The covers I made used high quality scans and the box art templates found here, so hopefully they'll be acceptable, but I'd by greatly interested in reading the official regulations.

I just noticed the Sonic 3D blast cover I put together is on the site. But it says the creator is unknown. http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=13797
 I guess I uploaded it when I wasn't signed in or something. Could it possibly be fixed? I can make a version with all the art rearranged to show I have  the original file.

I suspect there is something wrong in the server where the covers are stored (or the way they are stored), as I've noticed some covers being fine first but as time goes by they get corrupted.
Can't remember any examples at the moment, but I'll post if some show up.

On the PS2 section, the game for "Ratchet: Deadlocked" Is called "Ratched: Deadlocked" which is probably a typo.

It would be great if you also check spelling on custom covers.  I've printed 4 custom covers and every single one had spelling problems.

Super Mario World - http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=7517
First paragraph "Toadstoll"

Super Mario Bros 3 - http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=13049
First paragraph "Dosge"

Super Punch-Out - http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=9707
Second paragraph "Face of"

Starfox - http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=8482
First paragraph "fighther"

For folks that are putting so much time and energy into boxing their games, I think it would be great if there was a simple feedback system for covers (comments? thumbs up/thumbs down, checkbox for issues?) that way the community can police itself and scale with the community instead of putting the arduous task on the admins shoulders.

Spelling mistakes are annoying, and hence we have this topic.

And to avoid printing covers that have spelling mistakes it is always good to check/read the cover before printing... you know... ;)

I've always loved the Pokemon Red, Blue, Green and Yellow DS covers that go well with the modern Pokemon games, however I believe the first two badges are switched order wise. The Cascade Badge (Water Dropplet) is the second gym in the game wheres the Bolder Badge (Grey Hexagon) is the first gym in the game. If Shenske has the raw Photoshop files somewhere could be a simple fix  ;)

But i understand, in those cases is your call on who gets credited for the modifications  ;D ;) and personally i will accept it

I've noticed that the Adventures of Dino Riki for NES is not the correct resolution, it' sset to 96dpi instead of 300, so when I went to print it's super zoomed in.

http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=12904

Also NES Starforce is 96dpi as well.

The GIMP print guide for UGCs tells me to check the Print Size option in GIMP even though all art on the site should have the correct size. I printed a bunch of SNES covers yesterday (too many to check every one) and found two which were printing too large:
Doom and Mega Man X (alt)

I adjusted in GIMP's Print Size dialog and printed again.

WWF Super Wrestlemania is listed as WWF Super Wrestlemania and Super Wrestlemania with two different retail covers.

X-Men Mutant Apocalypse also has the Capcom logo too close to the front side so you're unlikely to get the crease to go right between it at the front side when (especially considering the smaller UGCs).

Wow! I presumed that there were so many SNES covers missing that were available in the forums because of the strict standards. but N64 seems to prove me wrong. So many games have scanned stickers and the spine logos are all different sizes and shapes that it's not even worth pointing them all out (All Star Baseball 2001 is a good example: the logo is larger than typical even though the area behind it is smaller).

Other observations:
Fighting Force 64 has the wrong color behind the spin N64 logo.
NFL Blitz 2001 has an useless embellishment that makes it not fit with other covers (shadow over the spine logo).
Pokemon Stadium has a horribly distorted Venusaur on the side (someone literally just squished the larger box's art).
Turok 2 Seeds of Evil has two retail covers and neither prints the correct size. The one marker "proper" is even further off (way too large).
Tony Hawk's Pro Skater 3 prints too small.

WWF Super Wrestlemania is listed as WWF Super Wrestlemania and Super Wrestlemania with two different retail covers.

Try printing at 24% (or 23%) scale and the cover should print correctly if the dimension were correct apart from the DPI screw-up.

Hi, I just read the "General FAQ (Newbies Please Read)" thread and found a few SNES Vertical UGC covers which do not print properly. Sorry if these have been reported previously, this thread is about 60 pages.

- Joe & Mac (snes_joeandmac_2)
- Super Mario World 2: Yoshi's Island (snes_yoshisisland_2)
- Ys 3: Wanderers from Ys (snes_ys3wanderersfromys_2)

looks like they are not set to 300dpi.  Just open them up in a program like paint.net (free) and change the dpi to 300, save, and you are all set!

Thanks Bear78. No problem i will figure out how to print them. I just thought the way i understood the FAQ was to report these so they could be corrected on the main site.

Thanks for the help Bear78 and ShootHimNow.

I also want to see if there is any way i can help the site. I have a pretty decent collection of games, is there anywhere with a list of some sort for scans that are still needed ?? No need to waste my time scanning everything if the site already has it.
Title: Re: Point out mistakes to be fixed
Post by: ShoothimNow on November 14, 2018, 10:52:30 AM
There really isn't a list, no.  Even if we have a scan, there could be something wrong with it.  Even if it is hosted on the site, it could have been added 12 years ago when scanners sucked a**.  600DPI descreened scans are always welcome!
Title: Re: Point out mistakes to be fixed
Post by: TDIRunner on November 14, 2018, 11:35:51 AM
There is no such thing as too many scans.  But if you are unsure of what to scan first, I always put a priority on requests first. 

I used to have a plan to scan everything I own, but life has gotten in the way, and at this point in my life, I pretty much only scan specifically requested games that I own.

Ehhh I can see the inlay debate, but it does say retail cover with the gameboy pak on the cover and screenshots on the pak, which would confuse someone (like myself) that it doesn't belong.  Maybe if it was changed from Retail Cover to Inlay Cover I would feel better about it now that it's been pointed out?

I want to point out the recently uploaded cover for Pokémon: Ultra Sun.

-> http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=17550

Only the front cover is from the actual retail US version. The rest is frankensteined together. The spine belongs to one of the PAL versions, the back cover belongs to another game (to Ultra Moon).

So this cover is neither "retail", nor is it completely "US". It should at least be marked as "custom".

As megasnorlax pointed out in another thread (http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=26817.msg235258#msg235258), it could also be the length of the title that is causing this issue.

It seems to affect covers with a title longer then 30 characters.

TG-16 Covers:
-Valkyrie cover was added under Advanced Variable Geo. Valkyrie needs to be added
NES Covers:
-The Legend of Link Hack cover was added under the Legend of Zelda
-Zelda Perils of Darkness Hack cover was added under Legend of Zelda

Maybe you're not adding individual hacks to the system which makes since but at least Valkyrie needs to be added to the list of TG-16 games and cover moved to that game.

@ShoothimNow

I quoted what Sheep said... As you can see, he already started to realize himself, that this colon thing can probably be ruled out.

There are plenty of covers with a colon, that work absolutely fine. Likewise there are cover without a colon, that do not work (this one (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=17205) for example). So the observation that all broken covers have a colon in the title is not correct.

=========================

Upon closer inspection, I think, it is not exactly the lenght of the title, but the length of the URL. The URL is getting cut off after 117 characters.

Here are some examples. (Notice how the last example (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=11272) misses the number at the end, the region and even parts of its game title, because the title of the game is so long):

http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/pending/3ds.supermariomakerfornintendo3ds_US.16252578882125858575.jpg <-- working

http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/pending/3ds.shinmegamitenseidevilsurvivor2recordbreaker_US.16252583949217.jpg <-- not working

http://www.thecoverproject.net/uploads/pending/playstation_3.makaisenkidisgaea3appenddiscraspberylhenhajimemashi.jpg <-- not working


So this means the lenght a title can be depends on the console category.

3DS games can have a title with 40 characters or less, because "3DS" only takes up 3 characters in the URL. (Spaces, colons and other special characters are ignored.)

Super Nintendo games can have a title with 28 characters or less, because "super_nintendo" already takes up 15 characters within the URL. (Again without Spaces, etc.)
Title: Re: Point out mistakes to be fixed
Post by: ShoothimNow on July 07, 2021, 11:19:03 AM
See.  ^ ^ links help.  Clear pattern there.

Seeing that the upload truncates and limits the filename length in total to 112 characters, values are being destroyed in the URL.  Using your url examples above, the x's are the missing values.

For the just uploaded names/ art, this is a "mistake" depending on how you look at it. The Game Boy games Bamse, Agro-Saur and Baby T-Rex (as well as We're Back! A Dinosaur's Story) are all the same game, just rebranded for different regions. Just like SMB2/ Doki Doki Panic or Bugs Bunny Crazy Castle/ Mickey Mouse. So they should all be listed under We're Back. Maybe when you search/ choose from the alphabet one of the other games, they can all redirect to We're Back (which of course doesn't yet have a cover).

Similarly, Konami Collector's Series: Arcade Advanced for the Game Boy Advance is listed twice and has covers posted in both places (neither uses this title, which is the official title, according to the back cover, btw) here: http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?game_id=30 and here: http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=15967

Another btw, if anyone can get ahold of this alternate (supposedly Majesco rerelease) alternate cover (rockabilly?), that would be awesome too:

Looks like my cover uploads are not working. Every time I upload a Game Boy cover to be approved for the main site, I get a broken image icon for each cover in the Admin section. It wasn't always doing this. This started happening when I was uploading my third to last cover LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy for Game Boy Advance. Maybe something has gone wrong with the site? I have noticed others have uploaded covers and I don't see broken image icons for their covers.

That issue has to due with a character limit in the title of the uploaded cover. The limit varies per console. From what I understand, it's an issue that's trying to be fixed.

@rockabilly1983

This is a known issue, we have discussed in multiple threads already. :) (See here (http://www.thecoverproject.net/forums/index.php?topic=307.msg235282#msg235282) for example and previous posts.)

The problem seems to be with the generation of the download link.
The URL is supposed to contain the category, game title, region and a 20 digit number at the end. But for some reason it is getting cut off after about 117 characters. Resulting in an error, if all the mentioned elements do not fit within that limit.

So for the moment whether you can upload a cover or not, depends on the category and the length of the game title.

"Gameboy Advance" takes up 15 characters within the URL, which leaves about 25 characters (without spaces and special characters) for the game title.

The game title "LEGO Star Wars II: The Original Trilogy (http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=18445)", has 33 characters unfortunatly. So you cannot upload covers for this game at the moment.

Hi! New to this site but this problem is something I've seen for years all over the place wherever replacement Sega Genesis cases are sold, and it makes me have to ask:

Back when this project was first starting, and the template was created all those years ago for the box art that went with the 1989 Sega Genesis games, did no one notice that the word "cartridge" was misspelled as "CARDTRIDGE" in big bold letters right there on the front cover? And then subsequently, did no one notice that every insert created for those games included that big, glaring, spelling mistake? Golden Axe, Last Battle, Mystic Defender, Space Harrier II, Super Hang-On, Super Thunder Blade, Ghouls 'n Ghosts, Forgotten Worlds, ZOOM... they all appear to suffer from The "Cardtridge" Curse.

I should be able to load them all up in GIMP and just paste the correct spelling over the incorrect one for each one. Want me to do that and then zip them up and provide a link?

Okay here they are: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1ui4YxpZJsCl5LBjKSxv4zLz6tZo94rzs/view?usp=sharing

I THINK I got all of them. There were eight that I could find. Also the "GENESIS" emblem on all of them except ZOOM was really low quality so I swapped it out with a much higher quality version of the same emblem.

Let me know if there are any issues, oddities, etc...!

Oh also, want me to upload a fixed version of that template with the spelling mistake fixed and the higher quality emblems? I don't imagine there's much use for it now since all of the applicable games have had their box art already made, but just thought I'd ask anyway. :)

I mean it's the same game. Originally, Sonic Mania was released as download only. Later, they made DLC called Encore. Then they released a physical version of the game, called Sonic Mania Plus which included the Encore DLC. Later still, in an ultimate case of stupidity, they re-released the physical version WITHOUT the DLC (also removing the reversible inlay), and just called it Sonic Mania. Has there ever been another case like this, where they REMOVED DLC for a re-release? I bought Sonic Mania at first, not knowing there was a change (the word Plus is really tiny on the box, especially the cartridge). Luckily, before I opened the shrink wrap, I noticed the Plus word missing. At first, I thought they just removed the word (not the DLC), but after comparing images and unboxings online, I saw that the DLC was actually removed. Returned that puppy for a refund and bought a used copy of Plus on ebay for the same price.

Not sure why they chose the name Sonic Mania Plus anyway, instead of Sonic Mania Encore, since that later made confusion when they released this double pack, https://gamefaqs.gamespot.com/switch/300205-sonic-mania-team-sonic-racing-double-pack/images/1783311

Pretty sure the spine on this release says "Sonic Mania + Team Sonic Racing", adding to the confusion...

I think the largest stupidity out of all of that was the fact that people were practically BEGGING for a physical release of mania (before Plus), and the best we got was the collector's edition that didn't even have a physical copy but a download code. Then after all that time of SEGA acting like a physical copy of Mania wouldn't make sense, they do it anyways...

Oh yeah, I totally forgot about that. I don't know how, since I have the Sonic Mania Genesis statue on my shelf. It was so stupid for them to release that with a download code instead of disc/ cartridge! Of course I ended up buying the physical Plus when it was released as well. I've only done that a few times, usually I wait for the physical version. The other Switch games were Namco Museum and Tetris 99. I think that's the only 3 games I have in both digital and physical. And in all 3 cases, for the digital, I only have the basic versions, no DLC, whereas the carts all included DLC (actually an extra game in Namco's case).

The thing unfortunately is that nobody at the moment can upload, thus Admins can't approve.

Oh damn! That's no good. Hope it gets resolved eventually! Guess in the mean time I'll make sure they're all posted for easy access over on the Sega Genesis covers post here in the forums.

I feel like adding new game titles to the database by user request is not working so great.
It seems a lot of titles are being requested (and added) without checking for proper (or rather consistent) spelling and whether this title is already in the database.

As a result the database contains many errors now.

Here are just the dublicate (or even triple) entries on the PS4 list as an example:

Uploads are fixed. I have like 5,000+ new covers to move to the CDN. Going to take some time.

So the admin panel doesn't let the admins easily merge titles, but I fix that. Usually the staff is great about managing this, but things slip through.

Gameboy Advance Game Covers > S > Shining Soul 2

(https://i.postimg.cc/z5d8Q9xw/Capture.jpg)

:).  This is indeed in 350 DPI

If the cover prints out fine all is good as 350 is higher quality than 300.
Title: Re: Point out mistakes to be fixed
Post by: Dabir on September 23, 2022, 03:22:14 PM
It's the same size and quality as all the others, it just has its resolution set wrong so it prints out too small.

Yep, checked the resolution and you're right.
Quick fix is to print at 116% or 117% scale.

Not a big issue, I guess, (although it seems to affect every category on the main site), but I noticed a kind of weird bug. All the entries are kind of randomly seperated into different pages, that just make no sense at all.  ;D

Some extreme examples in the Xbox 360 category, under "N":

-> http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cat_id=10&view=n

Page One : 1 entry
Page Two: 14 entries
Page Three: 10 entries
Page Four: 1 entry

Or under "T" in the same category:

-> http://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cat_id=10&page=1&view=t

Page One : 6 entries
Page Two: 0 entries
Page Three: 8 entries
Page Four: 9 entries
Page Five: 3 entries

I'm no expert but I'm pretty sure that's because there are titles in the database that take those "slots" that don't have corresponding covers uploaded. So since the name exists but there's no cover, the slot is taken up on the page but nothing is displayed. That is just my guess.

No big issue, but

Thank you for pointing out this mistake, megasnorlax. I moved the cover to the correct title for Legend of Zelda: the Wind Waker HD, The. Let me know if you find any other mistakes. I will fix them.

Problem- it looks like multiple cover are uploaded into the wrong titles "EMPTY" & "XXXXXXX EMPTY"

links- https://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=23824
         https://www.thecoverproject.net/view.php?cover_id=23841

Name- "EMPTY" & "XXXXXXX EMPTY" for the PS2 as far as i can tell


Good luck mods!!

The three Pokémon covers, that were uploaded by "peterkalinowska", are almost identical to the ones I created. (Like 99% identical...)
They only made very minor (often insignificant) changes to them and then basically re-uploaded them.

Apart from stealing my work, I don't think it makes a lot of sense to have x-amount of the same cover on the site. With the only difference being the position of the screenshots or the colour of a logo...

I have credited the covers to you, and will contact him directly about uploading other peoples covers.

Thank you for taking action. :)

Instead of crediting those covers to me, could you delete them?

Also he does not seem to get it unfortunately. He uploaded another cover (for Mario's Picross), that is identical to mine apart from some minor changes:

Edit: I have also send him a message on the forums, asking him to stop doing that. I hope he will listen. :)
