Ah, apologies Roman. Thought I had included that info but clearly not

Thanks for looking at this.

Well yes, but they are not existing sets on their own. They are only referencing devices.
So if you got a nes.zip, genesis.zip etc on your disk, you don't need them and you can remove them.
That it shows "misplaced romset" instead of "unneeded" could be an indicator that you're using an additional softwarelist import instead of scanning software lists individually.

Hi Roman,

I dont use any software lists as mentioned before as these files are from Mame's main rom set. I use mame's exe direct in clrmame.

I've removed the files shown as misplaced, updated to clrmame pro 4.044d and done another merged set scan and all now show as missing. I have noticed that the parent set of each has a 0 file size whereas the clone of each does have a file size associated with it. Not sure if this is the problem or not?

Nothing needs to be unpacked.


Are you using a full softwarelists import? Since such files which are listed as misplaced are not part of MAME (without softwarelists). In other words:  For a non-softwarelist MAME, they can be removed. For a software list import MAME profile, they simply don't belong to your Mame_ROMs folder. You can manually move them away.

Hi Roman,

These were from Mame's main rom set (not software list). I've shamelessly rolled back to 4.044c and this has resolved the misplaced issue.

To add more information, I compiled latest commit from Mames github (cant confirm if oddi did the same) and updated to 4.044d and thats when I noticed the misplaced romsets.

Anything else I can help wih please let me know.

Thanks again.

Hi Roman,

Thanks for taking a look. Here's a previous dat for reference.
Been fine for ages but the past 3,4 or 5 dat's hasn't allowed me to do a diff scan.

clrmame Discussion / Diff Scans

« on: 20 September 2021, 17:41 »

Hi Roman,

I've been using Clrmame Pro for some time now to scan my GoG sets (that I have purchased myself) and have been using Diff Scans to speed up scanning between each dat. With recent dats though this option has not been available to select. I've spoken to the dat maintainer and nothing has changed in the way the dat is created so I'm at a loss.

Any ideas what may be the issue?

Attached the latest dat for reference (please delete if not allowed).

Many thanks again for this amazing tool.
