Show must go on

Roman, if put file in any other folder before cmpro update window see result:
duplicate folder structure, first MAME folder have dat


second folder MAME:

is empty.

here all is fine :


Now my cmpro it's broken ..and not have backup exe ...of course.
I'm Jedi

P.S.
Now restore 4.35 exe - all is fine with visualisation

[Roman]

hmmm...can't repeat this....what did you actually do? Can you describe it step by step, like, what was the initial folder structure, how and where did you add the first file, how/where did you place the update file etc....

[oddi]

Tested with:
Clean cmpro4.35 x86 or x64 , take exe from the forum build and replace over 4.35.
Create folder "1" and add inside first mame dat: mame0204-179-ge754e43586.xml,
load dat , all warnings and etc etc, do not load roms folders, samples .
Open scanner window and close scanner window and back in Profiles folder .

Atm all is fine , looking "1/mame0204-179-ge754e43586.dat"
Now create new folder "2" and put dat: mame0204-199-g4345e8d455.xml in folder 2 .
Now have "[NEW DATFILES] 2/ mame0204-199-g4345e8d455"
double click over dat and next window "No Settings Found" click Update button, next window "Update Settings"  check "1/mame0204-179-ge754e43586" and Update button .
Again load dat , all warnings and etc etc., open Scanner ( do not start) , close scanner and back to Profiles folder and see problem :
have two folders "1" and one folder "2"
first "1" it's empty
second: have dat
"2" - of course is empty

Never see this problem before .

From many years ago i used this method for update mame dats :
Drag and drop dat in any folder ( not looking )
and with dialog windows "No Settings found" and "Update settings" updated old dat .
Hope u understand me

P.S.
Noticed , if start the first time cmpro and create folder ( not loaded dat ,nothing ), folder it's not see.
When add first dat i looking folder.
Do not remember that bug or cmpro features.

;-)

thanks for your reports by the way....

[oddi]

Hmmm, atm all is fine , wait the next bug wave

Thank you so much Roman

Pffff, not solved , problem it's stay

Now load new SL dat and same story - double folders
attach new xml for test

[Roman]

Eh? Nope..not here. All folders remain as they should...

So..what did you do exactly again? ;-)
Let's start with your Folder 1 / 2 example again....and then you add the new dat where? And what do you do then?

[oddi]

Yes, try with folder 1 and 2
 add xml in 1 and load , open scanner and close, back to profile
add same xml to folder 2 and load , updated 1/monon_color.xml
and see result :
folder 1 : 2 dats with same names
folder 2 : empty ( of course )

p.s. opsss , not effect with double folders, have double dats . Sorry, my mistake !
I'm tottaly lost again.,.. because this "speedy gonzales" feature broken my favorite tool

[Roman]

ah...double files...not folders...ok...I will have a look ;-)
who in the world uses equally named files ;-)

[Roman]

guess what...

PART II:

Roman , new bug with nightly build in batch mode :
Now start rebuild mame stuffs from new ProgettoSnaps sets and:
when finish scan cmpro report:"-not scanned yet-"
(give example with icons sets)

if manually scan set - all is fine
with 4.35 not have this problem
Thank you

P.S. Here have dats: http://www.progettosnaps.net/dats/
Test with which sets u wanna , result it's same

P.S.1 : PART IIa:
Batch mode is hardcore for cmpro - freeze when scan big  sets : snaps, manuals
Now with 4.35 restart batch mode and fix my ProggetoSnaps sets
No problem in cmpro:)

[Roman]

Tadaa

Uncle oddi say: it's worked !!!

PART III

cmpro last "nightly" build

2 vizualization bugs:

1. Mame status :

After update mame source all is fine with status, few days later start cmpro and see above image:

2. Add few SL dats ( 15-20 XML FOR TEST ) in [PROFILES] ,  start batch mode with "No Rebuilder Run" ->
my MAME SL have in [PROFILES]/MAME/MAME_SoftwareList/
When start batch mode we looking :
or cmpro "forget: few sets:



or stay on "white screen"


and when click "X" cmpro continues scan batch mode with "forget effect" again

Try with more dats - 15-20
the next year may have any final build 


P.S.
Restart cmpro after my post and have "new" mame status:

[Roman]

[oddi]

canary build: cmpro20181222.rar

Use only scan mame set:

cmpro self move subfolders !



move "MAME_SoftwareList" and "progetto-SNAPS" from "MAME" folder to "FIX" folder
and......
 create under "MAME" new subfolder "SoftwareList"
looks result:

cmpro restore subfolders to original position:)

If remove "SoftwareList" , others folders again move to "FIX"
