2 computer systems:
OS: Windows 7 Ultimate X64 (original) equipped with SP1 and latest updates
Language: German
Clrmamepro: 4.02
Filesystem: NTFS
On each of my 2 mostly identically configured computers Clrmame is installed and runs (almost) flawlessly.
Just on one computer Clrmame's insisting on "correcting" special characters in filenames is driving me nuts.
A striking example is:
In
Artwork - Computer - Commodore - Amiga - Extras (EEA Feb 16 2006).dat
the lines
game (
name "Terramex lösung (Extra)"
description "Terramex lösung (Extra)"
rom ( name "Terramex lösung (Extra).jpg" size 227061 crc 0x095724bd md5 0xa1ac92ab420326835beb11da0fdeb147 sha1 0xac34f552ed888ea5ca9f571979880ac4eea4407e )
)
don't lead to
Terramex lösung (Extra).zip
but to
Terramex l�sung (Extra).zip
I think I remember that french special characters are also concerned by that issue.
Other software, even not related to emulation, that uses DAT files handles special characters without any problem.
I would be pleased if someone can guide me to get out of that mess.
