Hi Roman,
now i have found an very abnormal behavior.
The File "Adventurer 10 (1999)(Cyberpunks Unity)(Ru).trd" from the Sinclair ZX Spectrum Magazine Collection would be mention as match, but would not be automatically rebuilded. If this is done manually by zipping an copying, the scan process does not throw an error, so the file is correct. Is there a answer for this behavior?

If a file isn't rebuilt it can be caused by several things:

- you're using an old cmpro version ;)
- not matching crc32 + size
- errors in the zipfile (enable settings->zipsettings->full structure scan, enable recompress in the rebuilder and watch the warningswindow for possible errors)
- not enough free diskspace in the rebuilder destination/cmpro temp folder
- some rebuilder advanced options, like "don't rebuild if file exists in rompath" (or whatever I called it).
- something goes wrong while unzipping/zipping

- and for long filenames (usually tosec stuff), you have to be sure that it fits in MAX_PATH which is normally something about 250 characters. This includes fulldestinationpath + setname + filename. If it's too long, it won't be created. You can test it by using a small destination for example c:\


and it would be interesting if you send me the file and the datfile.
