clrmame Discussion / Re: Rom rename issue in 4.04

« on: 12 March 2012, 10:08 »

As mentioned before, please check if this is not intended....
zipfile contains A and B; rename A -> B where B is not renamed either...then you will get this...

This will currently show a not-fixed message simply because you'd otherwise either create double zip entries (B and B) or would overwrite a valid file.
I may think of a move to backup maybe.....

I will look at the files. However keep in mind that some rene failures are a wanted behaviour.
For example: imagine a zip with file A and B in it.
And a rename of A -> B without a rename of B to something. Then rename fails.

Thanks a lot !...I will update my page...

hell....if I could only find some time to rewrite the docs completely.....

renaming can fail if

a) the zipfile got bad structures...so it might decompress fine but some zip specific structures are bad and renaming fails
b) rename a file to a new name which already exists in the archive and no circular rename takes place. In this case you need to do it manually (or simply rebuild the set)

I can look at it if you send me the archive in question.

clrmame Discussion / Re: Crashes in 4.04

« on: 10 March 2012, 12:56 »

sounds weird...please send me:

cmpro.ini file from the cmpro main folder
the to your profiler belonging .cmp file from cmpro's settings folder

If it crashes for you when it tries to fix a file, then maybe the file is somehow corrupt. Please try to find out which file is causing the issue and send it as well.
Try to minimize your environment, e.g. by scanning an empty rompath and then add some files only...

that should fix the "missing ones"...the rating algorithm failed on them and needed a bit of tweaking. However I don't get any failed rename operations...if you get some let me know (however it could be related to faulty zipstructures as well...so maybe rezip them).

hmm..first quick test doesn't show any issue...
your profile (at least the one from a previous post) had some issues though:

C:\Mame\Roms\stvbios is setup as system default path for the stvbios and as rompath, fine
but the software lists did not have any sysdefpath assigned nor a rompath setup...

...so I've added them, copied (not moved) all files from C:\Mame\Roms\stvbios to the newly added one for the stv software list and scanned...."astrass" (typical stv game, mentioned in your log) is not listed as missing.


So...nothing wrong here at the moment....

Can you send me your cmpro.ini file and the used .cmp file for the profile (cmpro settings folder) please....

« on: 07 March 2012, 18:58 »

erm....what you do is not what I think is correct...maybe a general misunderstanding....

So...step by step...

Let's assume the standard setup (without softlists)....you got a rompath A and maybe a rompath B with stv and megatech roms and the bios sets in it...

fine...let's add software lists...

multi software lists mean, you need to setup system default paths for them...

so you
a) settings->add new empty rompaths Soft_A and Soft_B
b) systems->assign Soft_A and Soft_B to the software list entries for stv and megatech....and rompath A and B to the other BIOS sets (incl. stv and megatech)
c) do a scan...of course the scanner will now tell you that each and any softlist set is not found...since you added new empty paths...if you got scanner/advanced/deeper check for fixable missing files enabled, the scanner will list most missing entries with "missing but fixable".

You could enable fix missing...but faster would be to simply copy all sets from rompath A to your soft_a folder. Since MAME mainly doubles the sets with the software list you see you have to double the sets. So scanning after copying should only list a few issues because
a) the bios sets themselves are not part of the softlists
b) some files (mainly nv files) are not part of the softlists

define mismatch.
give me some concrete example...
for mame software lists are useless anyway since currently they only double the existing ones.

News & Communication / clrmamepro 4.04 released

« on: 02 March 2012, 15:05 »

clrmamepro 4.04

fixed: scanner crash when using "mark disabled sets as unneeded"
fixed: lib assertion when removing files from zip with double listed indexes
fixed: cmpro crashes within uneeded scan when you let it add rompaths for not existing systems
fixed: rebuilder does not rebuild software lists when they got identical files in non-softlists
fixed: old deprecated dat format is broken
fixed: identical set names can fool cmpro's set check (MAME software lists)
fixed: zip rename can rarely create double entries (you may now run into some not-fixed renames in such cases)
fixed: system's unbind all only fully works after restart
misc:  added workaround for a possible MAME/MESS -listsoftware specific output error which leads to wrong rom sizes
misc:  slightly changed the text for the softwarelist import prompt and system auto detect button
misc:  changed the way how active systems are read from config

give me an example what you add where and what cmpro says...maybe with one example sample set....
