Roman,


First, sorry for the long post. :-)

But, I'm trying to get my VP Recreated Tables collection squared away, and keep running into a "problem" folder. This is the message I get in the log file:

Great Circus (Alben (France)) (1958) [folder: Great Circus (Alben (France)) (1958) ]
wrong case: Great Circus (Alben (France)) (1958) [wrong: Great Circus (Alben (France)) (1958)] [right: Great Circus (Alben (France)) (1958) ] [not fixed]
missing rom: Great Circus (Alben (France)) (1958) (Redswal) (1.0).vpt [size: 1454592] [CRC32: 0x5ba6e9be]

Ok - fine. CMP - Rebuild it. "Error while rebuilding"...hmmm...it won't rebuild the table nor the associated screenshot jpg file. So I do it manually.

The output is then this - wrong name: D:\Games\Emulators\Pinball\Tables\!VP Tables\Great Circus (Alben (France)) (1958) [wrong: Great Circus (Alben (France)) (1958)] [right: Great Circus (Alben (France)) (1958) ] [not fixed]

Ok - fine. Has to be the folder name I think. I manually re-name it. CMP still then complains about a wrong name. Fine CMP. Fix it. CMP's reply - "OK".

But it doesn't fix it. Upon the next Fastscan, it keeps asking me about this particular folder, and nothing I do seems to want to fix it, even if I rename it manually to exactly that of CMP's output in the log file.

This has happened with every version of CMP for at least 6 months now, and is preventing me from getting a "clean" audit of the tables. Is there any chance you could take a look at it?
