Re: amazing!

well this is what I like. :) Thanks very very much Wanderer! This thread has attracted lots of attention it seems, so I don't seem to be the only one that needs this. :) I'm glad it helped. :) I'm planning to add some extra features in it (hopefully in the near future).

Unneeded folders in roms...

A little thing i noticed while checking some roms. RC checks for unneeded files inside zip files. Does it check for unneeded folders too? From what i've seen, it doesn't. Am i correct? If i am, is it possible to check and remove them when "remove useless files" is selected, or perhaps add a "remove ...

It would be great ! :)
It's quite simple, registry and ini structure is identical.
Don't bother with new 2.70 entries, they will be created when needed.
Ok then, i'll start developing it.

RC has a nice feature. When you rightclick on a file in the right-panel, you can perform "shell operations" (copy/move/devele files). Imagine you have 2 rompaths open. It would be nice if you could select some files from one path and then with i.e. CTRL pressing and drag-drop, you could drag them fr...

There is a problem in your zip file. Try to unzip and rezip it (you can do it from romcenter).

Yes, if you are in merge mode, you have no clones files, just one big file with all roms for that game and all its clones. If a duplicates rom exists, it will make some trouble. Unfortunately, i had left the default selection when i used the data file, which is "Unmerged" so this will not work for ...

Personally I'd take the view that two ROMs in related games (parent/clone) with the same ROM name but different CRC is a bug in the data file and should be corrected by the data file author. I know that there aren't any such problems in my data files. ;) With regards the matrimbh problem above, tha...

Wanderer, the 'copy n' trick is only needed on roms. Two files with the same name are the same file. The problem raises when two roms have the same name in one zip. Aha. Ok, now i can understand how you handle things. Of course, if you have that second rom, your emulator could not find it because t...

The 'copy n' is added as soon as a rom with a same name than another one in the game is added to the database. Well, the problem here is that in the dat file, there are 2 or more zips with the same name but with different CRCs so perhaps the zip name should have the "copy n" and the files inside it...
