1g1r-romset-generator VS pegasus-frontend

I assume it needs write access so you probably couldn't run it off the FTP server. You can use this to generate a 1G1R set based off a no-intro DAT. You would need to download the set from somewhere first obviously.

going another step further the 1g1r project tries to create sets sans dupes, so some automation exists to help with that: https://github.com/andrebrait/1g1r-romset-generator or https://salumba.com/romlist/romlist_ui.php can assist there.

Currently, I am using the 1G1R ROM Set Generator Python script created by Andre Brait.

Well, technically I don’t use romcenter to filter my sets. I use it to make sure everything is what it says it is and ensure that the names are all standardized. Romcenter can do filtering to a degree; in the settings as you make a database you can specify region and so on, then just delete anything that doesn’t match. Personally, I use 1g1r romset generator due to how many options it has for customization.

How do you generate your 1G1R sets? This is my favorite tool --> https://github.com/andrebrait/1g1r-romset-generator

Run this script to get 1g1r English set (for example) and delete all Japanese/bios/demo etc. https://github.com/andrebrait/1g1r-romset-generator

I've been trying to find an alternative (preferably open-source and customizable) frontend for emulation after the whole RetroArch dev controversies. Right now I'm scraping games with Skyscraper and cleaning up No-Intro ROM-sets with a 1G1R ROM-set generator.

Here's the script for 1G1R.

You could try this front end. https://pegasus-frontend.org/

Have a look at pegasus-fe. Works on most OS (windows, macOS, linux, android etc.). It won't download games, but presents them in a very nice and efficient way. It also has many themes. Lastly, you can also launch programs, not only games !

Pegasus - seems like a proper launcher that can incorporate games from multiple stores? It seems promising.

Pegasus

I'm looking to create an emulation front-end (like Launchbox, Playnite, and Pegasus) using neo4j to store relationships between items (games, platforms, developers ect.). I've built myself a starting point in Java using JavaFX, but after trying to display items I'm starting to experience the limitations of that. I'm wondering if it might be a good idea for me to switch over to Unity at this point in development, before the application gets too big.
