Okay thanks for the update. I think somehow my own database got out of sync with thegamesdb one. Anyways, I just ran a new update script and things are updating now.

Thanks,

Hello,

I appreciate you getting things up and running again, but I am noticing that there havent been any new entries into the database for months now. I am wondering if its because of technical issues? Or if people simply stopped adding games?

Thanks

Okay so it looks like theres a gap between 56175 and 60000. Thats when the newer games start again.

So I am not 100% sure yet, but it appears that there's just a big gap in game ID's after this particular ID. I am not sure what happened but I will keep searching for higher numbers. Is there anyway to see the last added game? either through the API or the website?

Thanks,

Hello,

I am currently in the process of updating my DB but I am unable to return any results past id 56175 using /Games/ByGameID. Any help would be great.

Okay, I can test it out and then practice with a .json file. For the /Games/ByGameID what is the maximum game id's you can query?

Actually looking at the DB it appears that the games still have the same ID's from before. So I no longer need to mirror the database. I just need an effective way to add the recently added games past a certain ID.

Hello Everyone,

I am looking for an efficient way to simply mirror the database and then do small updates once a week. I am unsure how to do it with the current setup. Anyone have a good solution they are willing to share?

Thanks,

I plan on doing as you mention about just mirroring the API. I will only update it once a week so I shouldn't be making too many calls. If you guys get a donation link let me know id like to contribute in some way to keep this thing going.

Thanks for the support!

Yes you are right, I figured out the field parts later. However, I meant that when pulling in a games information instead of a publisher name it pulls in an ID. Thats basically what im talking about making subsequent calls. I could store a mirror of your id's but what if I pull in a new game and it ...
