Re: RC 3.0 alpha1

- There are some zip files (i.e. 005, 40love, astrob*) that although RC2 displays them as green, RC3 displays them as red. "Fixing" them does nothing (the fixing process seems to think the files have no problem - which they don't of course, they are just displayed as red). - 005: For some reason, *...

I tried it but nothing changed. Before "bradley" i had a rom missing from another file and when repeating the same procedure, i got "alphaona.zip" as corrrupted. Of course there was no problem with it either. Rezipping "alphaona.zip" didn't solve the problem either.

Of course "bradley" is not corrupted. Any one can duplicate this? P.S. Clearing the "Cache" dir does not help. ...

That wouldn't actually work because MAME does not search all related clones for a required ROM.

Yes, un-merged when the main set is not complete and merged if it is complete. :? OK, so what nailbomb suggests is to not have a global un-merged or merged mode, but to depend on whether the specific Master is complete. Wow, this would certainly be complicated code-wise.

I don't think it's that hard.

1. Create mame v0.106 datafile from RC
2. Open it with a text editor
3. Search for "???"
4. Replace it with whatever you like
5. Save the dat file.

That's it.
