while working on *something else* I found two little things in the old thingie....

clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.042 released

« on: 14 September 2021, 07:40 »

4.042

misc: support romof handling in device sets
misc: systems auto assign can detect empty software list folders in case they are named accordingly
misc: software list import's default setting is off
misc: changed behaviour of context menu "move all incomplete sets" to "move all sets with problems" (similar for delete).
This also covers wrong named etc ones, not only missing files.
misc: contextMenu options Delete/Move/Copy Current/all [not fixed]/all sets with problems use the parent set in full merged mode

misc: batcher's rebuilder pack overwrite does not overwrite the information from a datfile's forcepacking option
misc: don't stop multiple downloads on first failure
misc: wrote a wrapper class to handle all filefind calls which weren't 32k path length ready.
This should fix all remaining long path (32k) issues.

fixed: invalid wrong-case messages on chds with very long filenames
fixed: wrongly list valid chds as unneeded when a no dump chd of the same name exists and 'mark no dump as unneeded' option is enabled

(e.g. MAME AmericanLaser sets)

4.038a
added: support for zip/rar/7z aliases (e.g. jar/cbz/cbr/cb7, etc) in Settings->Compressor tabs.
So you can now scan e.g. jar files like zip files etc
The alias settings allow multiple values separated by space, so e.g. .cbz .jar .war

« on: 22 June 2020, 18:31 »

added: copy functions (not only move) to warnings window context menu

clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.037 released

« on: 08 May 2020, 19:01 »

clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.036a released

« on: 14 December 2019, 20:16 »

fixed: remembering window positions on multiple / virtual screens fails
fixed: rebuilder match count for files with identical crc32 but different sha1
fixed: rebuilder removal of rebuilt files for files with identical crc32 but different sha1
fixed: detect chd clone to clone moves (aka MAME 206 vs4e to vs4eo rename)
fixed: rom count for fully missing sets included bios roms even when the bios set is available
fixed: select sets options like initial invert / incl. clones/devices etc should only be activate when select sets or from file is specified

misc: dir2dat writes chd files as disk
misc: added cmpro.ini option Adv_WindowToFront = on (on / off) to handle the automatic bring window to front functionality

clrmame Discussion / mame .210/.211 sofrware lists

« on: 27 June 2019, 19:34 »

Just a reminder that for correct size recognition in some software list files (megadrv/quacksht to name one), you need the latest cmpro nightly build (if you already loaded the new software list files, you need to clear the cache after replacing the exe).

fixed: clone sets which only consist of chd nodumps appear wrongly as missing
fixed: chd-only clone sets which only consist of a parent clone are wrongly listed as missing set
fixed: bad 32bit cast causes name check to fail for >32bit sized files
fixed: hashcollision check different sha1 values are not detected when crc32s are identical

clrmame Discussion / 194 homerun

« on: 31 January 2018, 18:36 »

machine name="homerun" sourcefile="homerun.cpp" cloneof="nhomerun" romof="nhomerun" sampleof="homerun"

machine name="nhomerun" sourcefile="homerun.cpp" sampleof="homerun"

hmm....homerun is a romclone of nhomerum but homerun is also a sampleparent of nhomerum.....

guess that's not intended, is it?

will see what the devs say....until then you need to double the sampleset ;-)

clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.033 released

« on: 03 September 2017, 19:03 »

What a special day today....20 years ago...yes twenty years...the very first version of clrmame was released. Back then it was a win32 commandline tool. 1999 cmwin, a first windows ui version was released and finally in 2000 clrmamepro came out. In 1997 MAME had no zip support, no merging and actually not even crc32 was used for hashing...good old times ;-) And today...look at that beauty of emulator. What a success, what a huge amount of emulated sets. Times are changing, I've tried to update cmpro as good as possible to keep track of the changes made in MAME. I'd like to thank all the users who supported me over the years...some of them from the beginning till today. Without you, I would have stopped cmpro a long time ago. So....keep me busy. Thanks again. And yeah...here's the latest version 4.033.

Since the homepage is now https, you need to download this update manually. The updater will work again once you have 4.033 installed

4.033
fixed: xml parser to handle > character within an xml attribute correctly
fixed: wrong "missing but fixable" message (mainly chd) when set check is disabled which covers the actual message
fixed: dir2dat archives with folders produce wrong output
fixed: stats count of missing roms for clone sets which only consist of parent roms (and chds)
fixed: stats count of missing chds in case set check is disabled
fixed: fixmissing skips the set with the missing file itself for checking for a possible match and might miss a possible fix
(pretty rare that a set holds identical files, but e.g. MAME's 188 "pippin" does)
misc: use MoveFile instead of CopyFile also for disabled remove-rebuilt-source when possible
misc: drag'n drop operations now work when you use "run as admininistrator" to run cmpro in an UAC protected folder
misc: changed softwarelist import to always import all and filter specific afterwards. Solves problem where MAME does not print out data for some.
misc: remove possible empty setfolder when a chdfile is moved
misc: cmpro.ini setting Adv_AvoidPCSleep=on can be used to avoid PC switching to hibernate/sleep mode during scan/merge/rebuild/dir2dat operations (default = on, i.e. it won't switch)
misc: updated to rar 5.50
misc: make updater https aware
