Massive scan list by the Video Game History Foundation

[E-Day]

An update!

It turns out I missed about 5 zip files containing more scans when I was downloading everything from DropBox. I discovered this because I noticed issues in the Game Players Nintendo Guide section that were marked as Scanning that I did not have PDFs for. So hunting I went and I found them.

Here are the additional 88 issues I found, most of which we need:

Greetings fellow gaming magazine enthusiasts,

I just discovered this excellent effort to preserve many of my cherished childhood memories.  I too have a number of Tips & Tricks magazines not listed and would very much like to try to get them sent your way for preservation.  I live in the American Southwest (New Mexico).  To be perfectly honest, money is a little tight right now but I'll try to figure out a means of sending them.

-  Edit -   Having cut the list  down from what's already in the scanning process (from the VGH Foundation) from 34 issues to just 6 it is suddenly looking a lot more manageable.  

I have the following unlisted issues of Tips & Tricks available:

062 April 2000

072 February 2001

099 May 2003

101 July 2003

137 July 2006

140  October 2006

sure why not.. I'll add it to the queue. DM me.

Hi Guys,

  Just curious regarding the huge VGH scan, is the goal is to convert the PDF into a CBZ and make the appropriate edit to release them ? If so, I'll be willing to do the Official XBOX Magazine to complete some of the set instead of scanning them.  I figured out there 7 or 8 that I could do.  

Thanks,

dablais

Yes, that is the goal. Some of the scans aren't the best, so editing them and turning them into CBZ files is what we are doing. We can always turn the cleaned up and straightened CBZ files back to PDFs that will look nicer if we decide to go that route.

I have been using a free program called PDF Shaper to extract the PDF pages to individual JPG files. It seems faster than having Photoshop do it.

[dablais]

Alright, I will work on the Official Xbox Magazine then.  I did a lot for myself using https://converter.app/pdf-to-cbz/

You can send up to 20 files at a time without losing quality.

I will update the database accordingly.

[E-Day]

How long does that take, uploading and downloading everything?

[dablais]

It's relatively quick depending on the size.  One magazine should take less than a minute.

 

[dablais]

Quick update, these are done now:

Official Xbox Magazine Issue 6 (May 2002) (Scan ok, I might re-scan it)
Official Xbox Magazine Issue 7 (June 2002)
Official Xbox Magazine Issue 14 (January 2003) (Scan not good and some page are torn, I will re-scan it)
Official Xbox Magazine Issue 42 (March 2005)
Official Xbox Magazine Issue 43 (April 2005)
Official Xbox Magazine Issue 46 (July 2005)
Official Xbox Magazine Issue 74 (September 2007)
Official Xbox Magazine Issue 75 (October 2007)
Official Xbox Magazine Issue 77 (December 2007)

I'm going to edit incite PC Gaming 3 and 4.  They may take a bit.

[JimJam78]

So, bad news, good news, we don't actually have any copies of inCite Video Gaming to scan, but we do have the rest of inCite PC Gaming. I guess I'll grab if just because I'm used to them, unless anyone else wants a crack.  6 and 8 are already uploaded, so that leaves 5, 7, and 9.

[dablais]

Working on PC Gamer at the moment, I should be able to finish the list within a couple of weeks.

[JimJam78]

I took a look at what's on the VGHF lists and what's marked as preserved in the database, here's what I found; issues that have been preserved are struck:

Feel free to say if I missed anything in the VGHF folder, I don't currently have access to the NAS - not a problem, just have the credentials on another computer.  Also, I was comparing the list to the database catalog and not the download section, so if they're marked inaccurately in the database, it'll be inaccurate here.

[dablais]

Thanks for the update!  It’s just mean that a lot of work has to be done!

[E-Day]

Thanks so much for doing this! I've been thinking about doing this for a while but found the thought of it daunting and kept putting it off. 

[Spitfire1987]

Very excited to see the VGHF working to provide more material.

[JimJam78]

Man, if I came off sounding like I was tapping a watch going "where are those Tips N Tricks?!", my apologies, dablais, you're burning through them.

[kitsunebi]

Just saw this thread.  I haven't tested the software E-Day mentioned, nor the online tool dablais uses, but I'd caution you to be very careful if you haven't done extensive testing to make sure that they're actually extracting the jpgs "as is" and not doing some form of conversion.  Even Photoshop converts PDF images when extracting jpgs, so what you get out isn't 100% the same as what was put in.  If you know me, you know I HATE this aspect of almost all PDF conversion software.

I've attached a useful tool which I have tested and can guarantee will keep jpgs 100% the same when extracting them from a pdf (please keep in mind this isn't for use on true PDFs, but that is irrelevant here since we're talking about scans.)  It's only a 375kb download.  Just extract the file, then drag the pdf onto the .bat file and it will extract all of the JPGs into an output folder lickety-split.

[dablais]

I will check it out, but I also realized on my MAC, I can just right click on any pdf and say extract.  It will extracj all the image in a folder.

Edited January 10 by dablais

[dablais]

So far I prefer your tool. I also edited the batch file so it creates a new directory and name everything has page.

It seems to be better.

Thanks for sharing!  I will use that from now on!

 

[JimJam78]

I'm going to grab the Manci Games next. 

[JimJam78]

Near the end of the year, so time for the audit.  New and improved from last year, as I compared it to what's on the NAS.

As before, if it's struck out, it's been posted by team members already, and if I left anything out, yell.  Magazine totals are now bolded so we can tell the series apart a little easier, along with a counter of how many issues are left to process.  I also just can't find some of the things listed in previous checks.

I've already scanned both of these - just haven't gotten around to editing them yet.  So no need to worry about locating them - mine will be a whole lot better than the VGHF's Dollar Scans, anyway.
