Merged 0.36 roms missing files.

[chris2922]

I have attempted to create a 0.36 rom set using clrmamepro.
The roms i used as the source are a 0.77 dvd set totalling around 10gb.

I spoke to Roman about it and read up beofre i started and ended up with a 1-and-a-bit gig merged rom set for use with 0.36.  About a thousand games in total.

The thing is, some of the roms are missing files.  Lots of neogeo roms are missing files and if i add them manually they work fine.

An example of a problem rom though is Gauntlet 1 and 2.  Since mame0.36 it seems that the internal filenames have changed.  Im missing gauntlt1.6p but cant find it in any of my roms on the DVD.

Can anyone advise me on a way to sort this out?

Sometimes ROMs get redumped because they were dumped incorrectly the first time, and the CRC/MD5/SHA1 are wrong (due to being a completely different file).  So even if it's okay in .102 if you have a .dat for .36 it'll reject those based on that.  If you look in the original files and replace with what you have, it should be okay in most cases.

And then sometimes ROMs get completely renamed, as you've found here.  Finding what they are can be a challenge.  You may just have to find yourself a different set.  (don't ask how, or where, here, please!).

I wont, i know the rules.
I was just looking for some clarification really.  Thanks.

I love gauntlet, and one way or another, that file will be found!
I will probably try files size comparisons to guess which one it is.
