Re: Update 3.11
Hello,
it seems that pocketheaven NDS dat files are not ok anymore.
Is it OK for you ?
Thanks

Re: Update 3.11
We need to keep the updates coming in particular, a whole new full package complete with Logiqx's new DatUtil v2.44 released only yesterday (2/11/2008).
I'm worried that people that don't know how RC works will forget to update DatUtil and it give user problems.

Re: Update 3.11
Yes, it might be an issue. If i remember correctly, there was a discussion in the past about an automatic update or notification system but i think it remained just another idea. Maybe it's time to re-consider it.Ad_Enuff wrote:I'm worried that people that don't know how RC works will forget to update DatUtil and it give user problems.

Re: Update 3.11
Yes, the main problem is the free time I have actually. Until the end of the year, I am very busy at work, we do a big software migration and all developpers have a lot of work (probably also during xmas...).
About romcenter, I will try to make a build with the latest updates included datutil. (I saw the new datutil info, but I didn't check what's new...)
Another thing is that I now develop at work on c# dotnet 2005, and I want to migrate romcenter to dotnet. This way, I will improve my skill in that domain. I'm actually building the class model, including requested features such as rar, 7zip etc...
So expect a new full release soon.

Yup, the classical problem. Hang on there Eric.RomCenter wrote:Yes, the main problem is the free time I have actually. Until the end of the year, I am very busy at work...
I'm dealing with VS2008 myself the last few months (VB actually), for various projects at work. From what i've seen .NET can be a real pain. The devel environment has much larger loading times than older products (VB6) and in general it's a very "heavy" environment. The EXEs also seem to load and run slower due to all the libraries loaded. As a programming language though, VB is much improved. More organized and clearly more object-oriented.RomCenter wrote:Another thing is that I now develop at work on c# dotnet 2005, and I want to migrate romcenter to dotnet.

I do like the more logical coding you can do with it but it seems you need a 32-core system with at least 8GBs RAM and SSD drives to be able to work as fast as VB6 was.

Re: Update 3.11
I found an intermediate solution by migrating to delphi 2009.
This is already done and I can more easily redesign the code with the refactoring feature.
I will now clean some bugs and release a full version soon.

Re: Update 3.11
So, if I´ve understood well, it´s recomended to update the DatUtil v2.44 file every time a new version of it is released, isn´t it? Could you explain me the main function of that file in RomCenter program, please? I don´t know which is its specific aim and I would like to learn more about it.
Thanks and GOOD JOB!!!!

Re: Update 3.11
Datutil is used to convert from old romcenter, clrmame or mame datafile to new xml dat.
To update, you don't need to wait for a new romcenter release (and rc releases are not synchronized with datutil's). Simply replace datutil.exe in romcenter folder.
