clrmame Discussion / Split vs Merge

« on: 23 March 2021, 22:09 »

Hi Roman,

I have discovered a weird issue. Or at least it was an issue for me until I recognized:
The batch scanner seems to ignore forcemerging tags in dat files. So if I batch scan with merge mode on, it does a merge even if the dat file has "forcemerging split" set.
Now that I am aware of, I can circumvent the issue, but it's not what I expected.
So maybe an issue or maybe not

Thanks and best regards Duke

clrmame Discussion / Hash collision (Bug?)

« on: 07 August 2018, 07:39 »

Hi Roman,

I don't know if this is a bug or not, maybe I don't understand correctly.

Let me try to explain:
I have a problem on the newest HBMAME 0.200 dat.

In full merge mode, when detecting a hash collision, I assume the correct behaviour is to move the collided roms into subfolders with the name of the corresponding clone set. Is that right?

A hash collision is detected when there are two or more roms with the same name, but different CRCs, is this correct?

In this dat now I have two roms with the same name, same size AND same CRCs, but only different SHA-1 values. In this case it seems Clrmamepro does not detect the collision.
Am I understanding something wrong? Please correct me.

I can provide the roms for testing purposes if you need them, these are:

Code: [Select]

kov2p204s08/v204-32m-p08.rom
kov2p204s50/v204-32m-p08.rom

and

Code: [Select]

sfiii3nrs02/sfiii3s03-simm1.0
sfiii3nrs02/sfiii3s03-simm1.1
sfiii3nrs02/sfiii3s03-simm1.3
sfiii3nrs03/sfiii3s03-simm1.0
sfiii3nrs03/sfiii3s03-simm1.1
sfiii3nrs03/sfiii3s03-simm1.3

Thanks and best regards,

clrmame Discussion / ZIP without compression (new feature?)

« on: 01 August 2018, 06:19 »

Hi again,

Maybe this is already implemented, but I really cannot find it.
Please please tell me, is it possible to create zip files without any compression using Clrmamepro?
The Recreator (as well as the Scanner when it adds data) always compresses the data. For 7z and RAR it is possible to configure, but not for ZIP. Or I just couldn't find yet.

Thanks again so much for your awesome work,
Duke

clrmame Discussion / Feature Request

« on: 07 June 2018, 08:13 »

Hi Roman.

First thanks for your awesome work.
I just would like to sugggest one little feature that would me a huge amount of time:
For every scanned dat file, I let Clrmamepro create a HAVE-list text file, just for the style of my collections and later searching purposes.
Would it be possible to add a checkbox or something to let Clrmamepro batch create those HAVE lists alongside the batch scanning?
That would be so great.

Many Thanks in advance.
