Gamepedia no images on Add

Post by prismic »

I am feeling really dumb right now, but for what ever reason, I can't seem to get the cover image to show up when I go add a new game. I can see it on the add panel, but when I click add, the item itself does not contain the cover. What am I missing?

EDIT: Forgot to add that I am using Gamepedia 4.2.1, running on 10.5.2.

If you see it in the add panel, it must mean it was unable to save the cover. Check your data folder in your home folder a ~/Library/Application Support/Gamepedia. Inside that folder there should be a "Covers" folder and check the permissions the user should have read and write permissions (running repair permissions in DIsk Utility will also fix it, if this is the case). You can monitor the Cover folder as you add a new game, it should add a new file with an increasing number that is the new cover.

I ran disk util and it didn't find anything, but looking at the Gamepedia folder, it seemed that there wasn't any Covers folder in it. After I created it, I was able to download covers. Thanks!
