clrmame Discussion / loveber3cn Missing Set ARXMAX

« on: 03 June 2022, 19:04 »

Hello,

clrmamepro version: 4.044d
DAT file Source: ARMAX MAME Dats 0.244 | https://www.mameguide.info/MAME_(20220525).7z
DAT file: MAME - ROMs (v0.244_XML).dat
Missing Set: loveber3cn
Scan Options: <see scan_options.png attachment>
Scan Results: <see scan_results.png attachment>
segasp.zip Contents CRC: <see segasp.png>
loveber3.zip Contents CRC: <see loveber3.png>

This isn't really a big deal, but I've been trying to figure out over the past few years why the "loveber3cn" set is listed as missing in my scans.  I found a similar thread (https://www.emulab.it/forum/index.php?topic=4395) which alludes to this being fixed, but haven't seen it working in my case with the latest releases.

I understand the "loveber3cn" set requires the CHD, "segasp" BIOS, and the "loveber3" game as its parent.  However, I have CHDs unchecked, the "segasp" BIOS, and the "loveber3" ZIP available; so the set should be skipped instead of marked as missing.  From my understanding of the datfile, the "loveber3cn" set (without CHD) is just a merger of multiple files from both the parent game and BIOS, so there shouldn't be anything listed as missing since all the files (w/correct checksums) are in either segasp.zip or loveber3.zip (see segasp.zip and loveber3.zip attachments).

An example of a similar set that isn't listed as missing is "dinokich" which also merges all of its files from its parent "dinoki25" and the "segasp" BIOS.

Is there anything I'm missing?
