clrmame Discussion / wrong merging logic with new MAME 0.162 (MESS/MAME together) - another bug

« on: 05 June 2015, 19:56 »

I found this the bug while scanning with CLRMAME the Mame 0.162 sets stored in 2 paths (./roms for arcade and arcade CHDs, ./softlist with a lot of subfolders in it)
The DAT is created within CMP using MAME64.exe 0.162 with softlist option.
I'm using a full merged set (Option:"Hash Collision Name" and "forbid merge different systems").

The problem is that CMP tries to merge some Arcade CHDs with a softlist CHDs or a softlist CHD with another softlist CHD. For instance:

It wants to have Area51 CHDs all in the saturn softlist, but in the same time it gives me error because the sha1 doesn't match

or

It wants to merge shinsets PSX game with Shinsets pcecd game together with Hidsouls saturn game that is the parent of the shinsets saturn game

Another problem is that the scan window result gives me as missing sets any clone of softlist CHD games, but doesn't give me missing CHD (because I have them in the right parent folder)

And the last bug is about Tower of Cabin, that the rebuilder creates in the right way (a 7zip with the parent name and inside the 2 clones), but the scan Window result gives me error like if I miss them

I hope I explained in a good way and I attach the scan log to be more clear

clrmame Discussion / CLRmame 4.03 rebuilder issue

« on: 28 February 2012, 17:24 »

hi Roman, I'm using your software till first release and I didn't get any problem.  Some releases ago, you changed how to check CHD and after every scan some (not all) chd moves from a common folder where I decided to put to the folder where is located the related rom zip file. The strange thing is that some chd remains in the common folder (for example kinst2).
So I decided to join my folders containing roms and chds (before I had a different folder for every different system emulated) in a unique folder (ROMS) to have all CHDS togheter, but I need to have neogeo set in different folder. I used the softwarelist functions and I configurated CLRMAME in this way:

Default, device, mechanical and all bios roms in a folder called "ROMS"
[SOFT]Neogeo in a folder called "carts-neogeo"
[SOFT]Megatech in a folder called "carts-megatech"
[SOFT]STV in a folder called "carts-stv"

I've moved all roms in a temporary folder and I started the rebuilder tool on CLRMAME.
Now I have this issue:
Instead of creating all neogeo, MT and STV roms in the separate folders and the rest in ROMS folder, the rebuilder creates for each neogeo, MT and STV, two different zip files.
One located in roms and one located in folder specified in sysdefpath with some files in one and the others in other. For example:

I have mslug.zip in roms folder containing 201-c2.c2 201-c2.c3 201-m1.m1 201-p1.p1 201-s1.s1 201-v1.v1 201-v2.v2 and a mslug.zip in carts-neogeo folder containing 201-c1.c1 201-c4.c4

and this issue is present on all Neogeo, megatech and STV roms rebuilded.

I hope you can repair this issue as soon as possible because I can't use neogeo zip files for others emulators in this way

Best regards and good work!
