Hi roman and fellas.
I have a question about merging a set.
I have an original No-Intro fullset/zipped/torrentzipped of, say,
Commodore - Amiga (20090626) with its correspondant dat (Commodore - Amiga (20090626).dat) and P/C xml (Commodore - Amiga Parent-Clone (20090626).dat), both downloaded from the official
http://no-intro.org site.
I would like to merge/7z the full set using clrmamepro. Previously I perform a full Scan+Fix of Roms and Sets with the regular dat, resulting 0 missing/0 fixes. Ok, then I load the Parent-Clone dat into the profiler, default, rebuilder-->source (Commodore Amiga full/zip folder) -->destination (Comodore Amiga merged/7z folder), merge options-->merge sets, compress sets-->7z, rebuild.
It takes a little time to perform it, but the rebuilt set isn't merged at all, although it's 7zipped. The rebuilt set has exactly the same number of files than the source one (although it has been built with the parent-clone dat), the space gain is achieved from being 7zipped instead of zipped, but it's not merged.
I just checked it again by using zip as the compressor in the rebuilding proccess and comparing the two folders (original-->fullset, rebuilt-->merged) and they are exactly the same size.
Is it possible to merge sets with clrmamepro? Or do I have to use GoodMerge? Do I have to check another option?
