Annoying problem with Goodwindows...

[SgtSarros]

For some reason, It keeps excluding files...

for example:

 

You have 245 of 247 Atari 5200 roms

You are missing 0 of 245 Atari 5200 roms (2 excluded)

 

Someone told me deleting the.db file causes this problem.. but i've never touched the.db file.

 

it makes it really hard to find what files i'm missing if it won't tell me, you know?

[ME!]

i have the same exact problem, just with the missing text, not the have text. do you know if it does the same thing when not using the gui? it makes trying to find the roms you dont have very difficult obviously.

[ME!]

i just checked my recent lists for goodnes inwhich i used the goodwindows gui for goodtools, and it looks like it excludes the bad dumps and over dumps, maybe a few others, but thats it. still, it sucks for guys like me who are collecting the "whole" set. maybe it will work when not using goodwindows. i'll check later when i have time.

Yeah, im sure XP is good by what i have heared.

 

I meant that most people moan about windows, so i am mocking them, i never had a problem.

 

lol, my windows is better than yours.

I hate to interupt the charming tangent you'll all gone of on.. but..

 

Does anyone know how to force it to stop excluding some baddumps and overdumps?

try just using goodxxx, without using the goodwindows gui. its pretty easy to opporate witout it anyway. maybe that will do it.

[ken_cinder]

I know my audits don't exclude roms.

All I extract for use is Good***.exe and zlib.dll

I believe it may be the Goodinfo.cfg that controls this.

Try only putting Good***.exe and zlib.dll in the folder where you audit roms.

yah, tell me about it. i having A@H flashbacks.

[ken_cinder]

Goodinfo.cfg, yes this is what controls exclusions.

 

[b:BadDumps;;n

[o:OverDumps;;n

 

the ;;n being to tell the program for each specific auditing tool, to exclude these roms. (n = no don't include these, and it appears nothing = yes include these)

cool. fixin it right now.

[Baseley09]

what the fuk is all the good rom/ dump whatever about.

 

I dont know if i am lucky or what, but ive never had a major rom problem ever = so whats the point in these programs??

[ken_cinder]

The point in them is not having duplicates you would otherwise think are different versions of a rom, having a proper list of known dumps. And being more organized.

Trust me..........if you audited all you're roms. I bet you would find you had some dupes and/or bad roms. (Bad doesnt mean you cant play em............but they are most likely roms with incorrect headers etc and not properly dumped roms)

You would be surprised the ammount of morons that buy something to dump their carts, don't do it properly........and then circulate their dumps all over the net.

[Baseley09]

Fair enough i see what you mean, ive often thought that some of,y roms are dodgy i.e. Garoup, worked for 6 months, then bang, cannot read programs roms = wha in gods fukin name??????

 

Thats beside the point (but it really gets my goat), i know what u mean, but as long as they play, im ok.........Garoup is still gay in neoragex
