Title: Error with sysdefault paths
Post by: 0815_argh on 01 February 2017, 07:55
Hi,

I'm trying to set up a softwarelist scan in Mame 0.182. I set all the sysdefault paths (unchecked everything BIOS and mechanical as I'm unsure which paths go where) but the [SOFT]-Paths are set correctly. Clrmamepro gives me the following error:

I can't find any [SOFT]-path which isn't unique. How can I check which path(s) is/are affected? Thanks!

Send me the belonging cmpro's settings folder *.cmp file (for your profile)

From the screenshot it looks like there is one empty one? (There is an empty line above the ....)
....or enable BIOS/MECHANICAL and set them to some folder(s)

Maybe a better way to use software lists is to not use the mixed mode (Software lists/standard mame) but standalone profiles for each list

Here is the link to the .cmp-file:

I set every rompath I wasnt sure about to my main MAME roms directory. Paths with [SOFT] are unique tho (except for one, which points to MAME\roms but is unchecked).

ok yeah....a bug is hiding the real problem:

---------------------------
Bad System-Default-Paths
---------------------------
You're using SysDefPath options and at least one software list path is not unique!
Softwarelist paths have to be unique and cannot be shared with others.

The paths for the following systems are affected:


- [SOFT] Sord M5 cartridges -> G:\_MAME-0.182-Softwarelists\MAME 0.182 Software List ROMs (merged)\mo5_cart\
- [SOFT] Sord M5 cassettes -> G:\_MAME-0.182-Softwarelists\MAME 0.182 Software List ROMs (merged)\mo5_cass\
- [SOFT] Sord m5 diskettes -> G:\_MAME-0.182-Softwarelists\MAME 0.182 Software List ROMs (merged)\mo5_flop\
- [SOFT] Thomson MO5 cartridges -> G:\_MAME-0.182-Softwarelists\MAME 0.182 Software List ROMs (merged)\mo5_cart\
- [SOFT] Thomson MO5 cassettes -> G:\_MAME-0.182-Softwarelists\MAME 0.182 Software List ROMs (merged)\mo5_cass\
- [SOFT] Thomson MO5 floppy disks -> G:\_MAME-0.182-Softwarelists\MAME 0.182 Software List ROMs (merged)\mo5_flop\



ah yeah and the fixed version is here:
