The games folder being in my ES main directory. I also have scraper.exe in my ES main dir.
When I run it with -scrape_all, it correctly detects my games and starts filling out the gameslist.xml files, but it's prepending the system path to the game path and image path. Such as...
<game id="337" source="theGamesDB.net">
<path>.\games\nes/Batman - The Video Game (USA).nes</path>
<image>.\games\nes/images/Batman - The Video Game (USA)-image.jpg</image>
...
Then in ES, selecting the system shows a folder called GAMES, and then a folder within it called NES, and then the games are listed there. But they can't launch because the file path is wrong and the images don't display. If I remove the prepended paths in gameslist.xml by hand they work correctly in ES.
In my systems file, I also tried <path>games\nes</path> but got the same result.
When I try <path>~\games\nes</path> or the absolute path, <path>E:\EmulationStation\games\nes</path>, the gamelist paths end up looking like <path>./E:\EmulationStation\games\nes/Batman - The Video Game (USA).nes</path> and then ES won't even show the system.
Using <path>%HOMEPATH%\games\nes</path> (supposedly an ES var for Windows) results in the error GetFileAttributesEx %HOMEPATH%: The system cannot find the file specified.
I've also tried setting -rom_path to "" or "." but don't see a difference. I suppose -scrape_all ignores it.
I can change to the nes dir and run scraper.exe without -scrape_all and it works fine, but I didn't want to have to scrape one system at a time because this my initial "scraping everything I can" session.
