clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.038a released

« on: 07 August 2020, 15:01 »

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
added: zip property tab in Settings-Ccompressor with e.g. zip compression level setting option
misc: use a private use utf8 char for internal set subfolder handling, so all kind of apostrophes
'´` in rom/setnames are allowed again and won't be replaced
misc: speedup multi 7z/rar delete opertions by using filelists
misc: updated rar dll
fixed: some zip circular rename operations could kill files
fixed: some zip renames could create dupes (4.038a) (MAME .223 v4mdice v4monte issue)

clrmame Discussion / cmpro 4.037a released

« on: 22 June 2020, 18:31 »

Very tiny update...

4.037a
misc: for softwarelist combined mode scanning a software list set is now strictly restricted to the assigned rompath. Should resolve all possible false-positive detection of unneeded stuff
fixed: falsely allow user to enter settings/scanner/rebuilder/merger when no profile is loaded
added: copy functions (not only move) to warnings window context menu

clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.037 released

« on: 08 May 2020, 19:01 »

4.037
fixed: do not detect wrong sysdefpath issues when rom (or chd) is in the correct path while the chd (or rom) is in the wrong
fixed: failed detects of wrong named chds in chd-only sets (annoying 'move to backup, readded via fixmissing') (needed for upcoming saturn.xml updates)
fixed: datfile version gets cleaned out in profiler when creating or updating a datfile/profile
fixed: Mac Wine/Wineskin-Winery crash due to AfxBeginThread calls
fixed: Linux Wine crash when using dats with regions
misc: allow profiles without any sets
misc: allow special chars in datfile descriptions (e.g. ':', '\', '/' etc)
misc: updated rar dlls (5.80)
added: cmpro.ini option Packer_Zip_CompressionLevel to set the zip compression level (default is 9)
added: dir2dat option to keep chds as roms (and not as disks)

clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.036a released

« on: 14 December 2019, 20:16 »

4.036a
fixed: broken rar support in 64bit version (64bit conflict of rar and sha1 class), updated rar dll to 5.8

added: automatic 32k path length support, no more need to use \\?\ prefixes (*)
fixed: miss-list listed some sample-only-sets where the parent is autogenerated (e.g. fantasy_sound, nes_jf13, etc)
fixed: wrong software list rom size for roms which imply an offset of 0x00000000 as default
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: rebuilder log adds software list information to file name
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
misc: profiler cache which reduces rescanning datfiles/settings on each profiler visit, should speed up profiler for users which have lots and lots of dats. Delete/Add/Move operations will force a refresh at the moment though
misc: limit extension removal to a max of 3 characters and no space after the .
misc: updated zip, rar and 7z dlls (4.6.7, 5.71, 1900)
misc: updated sha1 c++ class implementation to 2.1
misc: switched to Visual Studio 2019

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).

clrmame Discussion / cmpro 4.035 released

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

clrmame Discussion / Latest Nightly Build

« on: 07 June 2017, 19:27 »

https://mamedev.emulab.it/clrmamepro/binaries/cmpro20200909.7z

misc: www profiler can handle urls which provide filenames by content-disposition header information
fixed: www profiler shows downloaded and updated dats still as update
fixed: don't prompt user that the download was ok when www profiler loaded a decompressed dat
fixed: downloaded and not moved decompressed dats get removed when closing cmpro
fixed: some sets don't get marked as unneeded or weird renames are proposed in mame/software list combined mode only
fixed: parent/clone relationship of software list roms got lost in mame/software list combined mode only

clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.032 released

« on: 16 May 2017, 20:19 »

4.032
fixed: dir2dat creates subfolders for found filenames with `. Now it translates it to ' (as the parser does anyway)
fixed: unique softwarelist folder check can fail and only show an empty list instead of details
fixed: batcher's "for rompath naming use "dafilefolder" created double foldernames when using dats with subfolders
fixed: batcher's "for rompath naming use "datfile name tag" or "datfile file" was not working
fixed: batcher's "for default naming use" options does not use the global profiler setting anymore
fixed: don't list existing parent roms in completely missing clones' output
fixed: profiler hides empty folders
fixed: wrong bios set assignment in non rom-merge-parse-mode for some sets which use merge tags to link to bios roms
fixed: profiler context menu tree delete folder switched to 'delete profile' when a profile in list view was selected
fixed: problem with memoryfile exceptions when working with enabled headers
added: batcher option to skip scan run when a batch rebuild did not create any files
misc: updated fuzzy set name check routine (which is rarely used though) giving more robust results
misc: better profiler tree display when delete/reset/clean cache on a folder or move profile (not jumping to root and collapsing the tree)
misc: show red/green dot profiler tree folder icons when profiles contain at least one red or only green items
misc: updated to zip archive: 4.6.4

clrmame Discussion / clrmamepro 4.031b released

« on: 26 October 2016, 19:40 »

4.031b
fixed: statistic count values for sets which do not really exist (e.g. sets with only biosroms and nodumps/samples)
fixed: fix test for unneeded rom/detecting not separated biosrom checks interfear
and you need a 2nd scan to get rid of it (MAME .179 decoccass v0a-.7e issue)

fixed: rebuilder matched files counter

4.031
fixed: various softwarelist/standard mix problems with double set names
- chd name matching problem which came back with 4.030 fix for unneeded chds
- identifying wrong set leading to all kind of sideeffects like prompts to rename sets or skipping wrong placed sets
- skipping detection of a missing set when identical sets are shared in different sysdefpaths
- reporting wrong "wrong sysdefpath" warnings when 100% identical sets are shared in sysdefpaths
or for clones where parent's set name was identical in different sysdefpaths
or when a set was renamed and old name is now used in a different sysdefpath
misc: remember dir2dat setting for datfile format
misc: updated unrar dll to 5.40.100.2100
misc: updated 7z dll/sdk to 16.04

nice....ain't it.... ;-)
well...I'm back from summer holiday...and within the next days you will get an update....which (besides other stuff) handles the upper thingie....

and if you don't get it....you should have a closer look at the hash values

and if you still don't get it....it's a multiple crc32 hash collision
