Re: Romcenter 4.2.0 beta 3 (now 64b !)

Given theres been no updates i had to relook at other managers, we moved to Rom Vault, its 64bit, alot of documenation, works very different than RC but does work. Given the newer hardware i now have and real fast SSDs ive managed to organise all my ROMS in under a day. It appears the internet liste...

Re: Romcenter 4.2.0 beta 3 (now 64b !)

Its slow on development for sure, however we have no idea as to why... at least 2 factors are involved. - Covid changing the planet and how people work - MAME was kinda bulldozed over abit, very hard to find anything new for MAME. I really liked the software, however for a few years ive had issues w...

Re: Romcenter 4.2.0 beta 3 (now 64b !)

Think ive seen this, when creating a dump of ROMS required had to check that "no dump available", so i suppose should be green if the game works.

Re: Unexpected error. Operation will stop

I can do some testing as i would like to test with split / merged etc.. especially with samples and CHD, so it would be a good test, i can also backup what i have as i know they work (I have the space to do that).

Re: Unexpected error. Operation will stop

My C drive has alot of space (over 200Gb free, games on on drive D which is over 6Tb, having over 2Tb free, however my RC temp drive is D), it seems to do it when many games are trying to be fixed (over 1000 at a time), so the 32bit issue is likely the problem.

Re: Error with database (upgrade from v4.0.1? to v4.1.1)

For the databases that dont work, i dont see any *.old file (they appear to only exist for the working ones)... the broken ones i see *.dat (2018 date) and *.rdt (which appears to be the files in RC)...

I could just send over the files that appear to not work and you can take a look?

Usable to replicated it, i am sure it was either copying fies in to the archive or out, however the game is now fixed (rezipped it), if i come across the issue again will send a link to the file in question

I have a game i need to fill, so i create a zip file with a single text file in it called "800fatha.zip", this is a legitimate game i need to collect, so i would expect this zip file to show up RED, but no, it says the file should be renamed "mariner...

This seems to work, what also works is right click "reload path".

Is the software storing some sort of unique ID for the path?
