How does this make sense? geogolem Re: RomCenter 3.6.3 released Post by geogolem » Sun Jul 01, 2012 12:27 pm This only happens when I choose 1G1R..If I load the database and the rom path 1617 games show up green as playable. (Something like 1000 games show up missing). When I select 1G1R it reports 0 games playable, 1617 games missing.

This is fixed for next 3.6.4.Until then, refresh all paths

Using CMPro and RomCenter that tends to spot it.Mike RomCenter Author Posts: 1523 Joined: Fri Sep 28, 2001 12:34 pm Location: France Contact: Post by RomCenter » Fri Feb 11, 2005 2:55 pm I checked with the galpanib.zip clone.Romcenter correctly handles it, the problem is, like Logiqx said, that no roms are specific to galpanib.The zip file won't be created during a fix operation because all roms needed for galpanib are also needed in the main set, and are moved here.But, if galpanib.zip already exist, or if you manually create the empty zip, romcenter will populate it with the correct roms.I found a new bug producing a gpf during the test above. It is now fixed.Would you like an updated beta 4 ??? Eric - RomCenter developerReport bugs here.

Post by Ad_Enuff » Fri Feb 11, 2005 11:30 am Eric,I'm currently using your latest BETA 3, but upon using clrMAMEpro and then verifying my ROMS using RC we still get a few zip files that just won't go away and have no idea why! They appear as YELLOW as wrongly named.they are:galpanib.zipjdreddb.zipnatodefa.zipvaportrp.zipwotwc.zipRC and clr surely must be exactly the same once verification has taken place? So why does RC show a few ROM sets still yellow? Logiqx Puzzle bobble Posts: 129 Joined: Sun Sep 30, 2001 10:50 am Contact: Re: Still some silly problems.... Post by Logiqx » Fri Feb 11, 2005 1:04 pm Those sets should not physically exist since they contain no ROMs different to the parent. However, Roman has forced CMPro to create them so that the number of ZIPs matches the number of games+resource. You just have to live with it unfortunately (i.e. either CMPro showing 5 missing ZIPs or RomCenter showing 5 wrong name ZIPs). It's anyone

May exist very similar games created either by the same company or by another one. Usually these are slightly modified versions of the original game that were customized for specific countries or may contain some minor differences. Those games are called "clones" and the original game is called "main". There is always one main game but there may be many clones of it. Usually, many of the roms contained in clone games are also contained in the main game and only a few roms are different in the clone.2. Romcenter basic conceptsThere are two main concepts in Romcenter, "database" or "datafile" and "rom path".- A Romcenter "database" is where Romcenter stores info about all games and roms supported by a specific version of an emulator. Such info can be either found in a datafile or retrieved directly from an emulator (if it supports it).MAME is an example of an emulator that when executed with a specific parameter, it displays all the games it supports and their contained roms. Romcenter can automatically retrieve and import that info into its database.A datafile is a special file that contains info about all games and roms supported by a specific version of an emulator. Logiqx's site is a great datafiles resource. He creates and maintains datafiles for many emulators so there is a good chance you'll find what you need there. Romcenter can import those data too in its database.- A "rom path" contains the actual game files a user may have. They may
