clrmame Discussion / Re: Request for new option in batch mode.

« on: 16 October 2017, 06:41 »

"invert" is an action which is applied once (when you click the button).
If you want to get it applied after profile load, you need to check "initial invert".

"Logical not" is different to "invert". It applies a logical not on each of you "select sets" selection. Invert works on the final selection only.

So if you apply a logical not on "a*;b*" you get something you might have not expected...you get not(a) or not(b)...where not(b) of course enables some of the 'a' again ;-)

well...instead of using the multi-software list mode, you can of course always use all hash files as single-profiles...and the batcher to quickly update/scan/rebuild them at once...

you can do that only semi manually I guess...

load a -listsoftware output into a texteditor, sort the lines, remove any line not containing <softwarelist name="
merge all hash files into one file, do the same sorting, removing for this file and finally compare both files....

You cant find it because there is none. at least I dont see one when I look at a mame -listsoftware output.

Yes, there is a mame has file "advantage" which contains the software list but MAME itself does not export it, so clrmamepro cannot import it.

Either you simply use the hash file in the profiler and setup a single profile for it.....or you may want to ask mamedevelopers why this software list is not exported via -listsoftware

I will have a look later at home regarding the genesis problem.....could be a problem in multi-software list mode where genesis might be used in a different list, too....

"advantage"...hmm.....I don't see any software list named like that when I check an official mame 190 -listsoftware output

did you store it this way:

<your rompath>\genesis\tmss_usa.bin if you keep it uncompressed
or
<your rompath>\genesis.zip with tmss_usa.bin inside the zip (you can use .rar or .7z as well)

works for me...but as I said...maybe your storing method is different.

So, I've created an empty folder e:\temp\test and put the rar file in it.
I went to dir2dat, settings can be seen in attached screenshot and hit create....and it created:

<machine name="abra ca dabra (gottlieb)(1975)">
      <description>abra ca dabra (gottlieb)(1975)</description>
      <year>?</year>
      <manufacturer>?</manufacturer>

« on: 19 September 2017, 18:33 »

It only works when you have specified something in the select sets box.
A simply uncheck won't be remembered...but this is also the case in non-batch mode.

clrmame Discussion / Re: dir2dat strange chars

« on: 19 September 2017, 18:16 »

can you give me a short description how the files are stored?

- what is the dir2dat source folder
- where is Abra Ca Dabra (1.00) screenshot.jpg located?
- is it an unpacked file?

Currently I assume the following:
<your sourcepath>\1.00\Abra Ca Dabra (1.00) screenshot.jpg

is this correct? Or is your setup different...maybe also a screenshot of dir2dat.

....since currently I cannot reproduce the problem...I always get a valid "\"

clrmame Discussion / Re: dir2dat strange chars

« on: 19 September 2017, 13:20 »

so the upper part is the wrong one? and for example Abra Ca Dabra (1.00) screenshot.jpg is in a subfolder called "1.00" ?

clrmame Discussion / Re: Request for new option in batch mode.

« on: 19 September 2017, 09:28 »

hmm..actually the batcher should act like the standard loader.
So enabled/disabled sets should get enabled/disabled the same way when updating to a new dat.

I will double check this

clrmame Discussion / Re: Using %D (driver status) to filter only working ROMs - is this possible?

« on: 18 September 2017, 18:22 »

Hmm...here at home with MAME .189 %D=good works fine.

Well, it enables sets which have driverstatus good....whatever this means ;-) Most likely this does not necessarily mean they are 100% fully emulated and 100% working....but since there is no other useable flag you're coming close to your goal...

Of course you need to keep devices/biossets and maybe parents/clones enabled for your selection to get valid set selections...

clrmame Discussion / Re: Using %D (driver status) to filter only working ROMs - is this possible?

« on: 18 September 2017, 08:05 »

hmm...I will have a look at it...actually yes, a %D=good should select sets with this driver status flag in the xml...doesn't work...maybe the syntax was different...I will check later at home.

clrmame Discussion / Re: CMP and mass rebuilding of ROMs

« on: 12 September 2017, 15:51 »

That's a job for the batcher..

drag'n drop the datfiles in the profiler and when loading them, select more than one...this will let the batcher open..

There you will find options to auto-create/assign rompaths etc etc...

Guess there are some tosec gurus here in the forum which can give some more details.....

well...actually there is an option in the scanner's context menu to open specific sets at specific urls....you only need to configure it correctly ;-)
