I checked out the No-Intro web site. Good stuff. I couldn't find DAT sets for Atari 2600, Atari 7800 or Intellivision. Do they exist? |
| Macarro:
They are working in them, maybe we can download in just a couple of weeks. You can find more information in their forum. |

For the A2600 I think they are waiting on the next Good Tools release which is due later this year. Yes, all the systems are not there yet but the are still young. John |

Ok, I'm getting more intrigued by this. It doesn't help that my company has blocked the main No-Intro page. So I'm left scouring 2nd party sources for info. Looking through the DAT files I did find, it looks like No-Intro has fields for ROMCRC and game title. So, what happens if I run a no-intro DAT in clearmamepro with my ROM set? Do the zip files get renamed the game title and the actual ROM image get the ROMCRC, similar to a MAME set? The screen shots at the archive are named based on the ROMCRC instead of the game title. How does this work with a front end like MameWah or MALA? Don't they link up the zip file name to screenshot name? How would it work if the screenshots are named based on the ROM name? Also, what is the relationship between the Goodtools DATs and the No-Intro DATs? Why would the No-Intro DATs have to wait till the next version of Goodtools? Finally, can anyone post a link to the actual No-Intro naming convention? Or is it just the game title from the DAT? |
