Hey,
But I do not see some systems ie)NES for nes I have almost all the roms I want so I just used Howards list generator and it worked great. :)

Yes I know :)
Slice's question was about those datfiles for romcenter and they have to be converted to clrmamepro format to use with lazarus...
These datfiles sometimes contain addtionally information like the year, manufacturer etc. Anf in those cases are still interesting to use instead of the listgenerator because it will give you addtional filter options later on...

Hi,
I am having probs converting.. I download a nes.dat file from good dats.... and want to convert it so I can use it.
I tried
datutil -o new.dat nes.dat-but that gives me an error
tried something like datutil -f listinfo nes.dat or soemthing same errors
could someone spell it out for me?
Howard_Casto:
Just type in datutil datname.dat...
it will automatically convert from one to the other and name the new dat datutil.dat or soemthing like that.
Also one of our patrons is making a brand new dat maker which supports different file extensions and multiple directories. Look for that to be released very soon.
