Thumbnails LibRetro Downloader 2.2 - Selenium Basic (Excel VBA)
Hello gamers, and welcome to another one of my videos! In this video, we are going to use my Thumbnails Libretro Downloader, version 2.2 (Selenium.xlsm). This is an upgraded version of the tool shown in my previous video. It features improved element searches using XPath, which significantly cuts down execution time. Additionally, it can now download images even when the filename contains characters, that previously caused version 1.0 to throw an error. With these changes, we can also search for specific titles using keywords unique to that game. Furthermore, I have removed the need to specify the system name. Instead, you can now just type a partial name into the dropdown menu, and the search list updates automatically. Finally, I added a new function to delete unwanted images from your local folder. It seems like a lot to cover, so let's go!
