clrmame Discussion / Needed files are reported as unneeded?

« on: 14 October 2011, 18:56 »

Hi Roman,
what am I doing wrong here?
I collect parents only and scan using "Select sets = %c=?*" (logical not). This results in 8618 sets to be scanned.
For some strange reason, CMP keeps reporting the following files to be unneeded, but in fact they ARE needed for the rom parent:
bosco: 50xx.bin, 51xx.bin, 52xx.bin, 54xx.bin (same for some more Namco romsets)
btoads: bsmt2000.bin (same for some more games using bsmt2000 sound)
Now I'm aware that this is not the typical way to collect and scan romsets, therefore maybe nobody noticed this problem before. Is it my fault? And yes, I'm on version 4.01.
Thanks for your help!
Sven

clrmame Discussion / Packed CHD subfolders are considered to be unneeded files?

« on: 09 September 2009, 11:21 »

Hi Roman,
I've read that you consider it to be "dirty" to store CHD subfolders as packed ZIP files in your ROMS rootfolder. Nevertheless it still works in MAME and saves some disk space.
Therefore I have set the option "allow CHDs in ROMpath root" to yes inside the advanced scanner options. But still my zipped subfolders are reported as unneeded files and Clrmame suggests to delete them. What can I do?
Thanks for your assistance!
