Romcenter

Nice! You came back refreshed i'm guessing (mentaly at least).

Hi there.

Since there seems to be something working differently than RC3, i'd suggest you post it as an issue here.

Hi Eric. Relax and enjoy your vacation.

Hi Eric. Thanks for the update. Final release is getting near...

all .zip

Hmmm, just a thought. OK, i guess it's up to Eric then...

Hi. Are the files ZIPs or 7Zs?

Check this forum for more info.

As for the "when is it"... Soon(tm). Meaning, "when it's ready". We all hope it will be soon but you never know...

Hi.

Can't remember exactly where it is, but there is an option to select "main sets" or "clones", etc. I think it exists during the creation of the datafile. With that, you can filter your datafile to work only with the sets you wish.

i deleted the romcenter folder in \local and now it starts fine

Nice to hear the issue has been solved.

but yesterday rc2 dosent startup anymore. So, rc2 used to work but it does not work anymore, correct? if i would start rc2 it shows up in the task manager . u see romcenter.exe in the task manager for under a second and than nothing happens So romcenter.exe appears in taskmanager for 1 second and t...

Hi. What exactly happened? - Did rc1 work and you upgraded to rc2 which never worked? - Did you upgrade to rc2, worked for a while and now it doesn't work? RC2 works fine on my pc. Perhaps in your PC something got corrupted. You might try removing RC completely (also any folders that may exist under...

Hi and welcome. Interesting question. Eric will have to clarify whether this will work under Wine, because RC4 has been developed using WPF, a part of .NET that AFAIK has not been implemented in Mono. I'm not sure how Wine implements the .NET framework libraries (if it uses the original Microsoft li...

Hi there.

Your request will be noted, if you'd like you can also post it as a wish here though.

Have a nice day.

From a quick look, i too couldn't find any problem. It seems to be a well-formed xml at least, so Eric will have to say. The error produced by RC though, puzzled me. I know it's not always easy to achieve but it would be nice if it didn't only show the procedure in which the error occurred but also ...

Hmm....not much support here :( Hi. You'll just have to be a little patient. This (development-wise) is a one-man-show and sometimes there may be periods were real-life makes it difficult to be as involved as you wish with some things. I'm sure Eric will take a look at this, it just may take a whil...

That thread is very old and it's for a much older version of RC (probably RC2). RC's design and way it works has changed much over the years, so there's no point in looking in posts that are so old for help in recent versions.

Hi. It would be helpful to upload the log file (you can find it in "C:\ProgramData\romcenter") so that Eric can take a look at it and explain what has happened. If you don't want to upload the whole log, just isolate the part that contains the error and post it here.

Hi Wanderer,

I created a new database and used the same dat file that I used for the database in the stable build.

Well, in that case, Eric will have to take a look at it and let you know what's going on. Just give him some time.

This is all rather odd as the exact same complete set of no-intro SNES roms tested in latest stable version of rom center don't show any issues and come back as all green.

Hi and welcome here.

Have you used the same datafile?

Hi there.

Try the link in my sig. It's for reporting bugs and feature requests.

Hi there. wine datutil.exe ... So, Linux eh? Maybe the folder is not accessible by wine or not passed properly to datutil? Try copying some files locally and execute datutil passing the local folder as parameter, to see what happens. If it works that way, it's wine... Also, perhaps try removing the ...

Hi there.

Is it Possible to repair this?

Well, it might be, but we probably won't find out until you post the data file.

There seems to be either an error in the datafile or something that RC does not support. Post it here, it would help Eric find out what's causing this message.

You're using version 3 or 4 ?

I'm guessing 3 because in 4, that question has a Yes/No here (Win7SP1 - EN).

Hello. I'm not sure how many different datafile formats exist out there but an interesting idea would be for RC to expose some kind of plugin-API. That way, community could create plugin-DLLs to add support for New database creation / update for new datafile formats (provided that the original dataf...

Or are there different version of the same CHD , but with different CRC numbers ? Hi there. Yes, that's probably what it is. The source datafile you have used (either exported from MAME or from an internet source) contains the names and CRCs of the files supported by a specific MAME version. The CH...

Hi there. Indeed, it would be interesting if romcenter could use an external database to keep its data. I suspect though that it would need quite some work to create all the necessary structure for romcenter to work, in various databases that exist outside. For instance, i would find it interesting ...

Hi there. RC3 development has stopped for quite some time now. RC4 is in Release Candidate state. It's still strongly suggested to keep a backup of your roms before fixing anything with it, but it seems that there are no major glitches so it should be relatively safe. I would suggest you try playing...

But now it shows some red roms. The same roms were green in RC3.7. If RC4 does that, there's probably a good reason (well, if there's no bug involved). If a rom is shown red in the Database branch, something is missing from it. Either a file is missing from inside the game, or it exists but the che...

Hi and welcome to the forum. I can't speak for RC 3.71 but i know that it is not maintained for quite some time now, so some things may have changed and not supported by RC 3.x any more. I'd suggest to try out RC4. Just have in mind that it's still a beta version. It should be safe but just in case,...
