how to disable them? thanks

> how to disable them? thanks

manually in settings->sets

Besides there is no reason to disable clones. There are several clones which work while the parent isn't emulated correctly.

manually disable 1700+ sets?
ok but does clrmame save this when the dat is updated? (i don't want do to that for 1700+ sets every new mame)
i think an option will do the trick more quickly...

although clrmame is not as easy as romcenter, it seems to be more solid with all its options
congratulations

A change in the datfile/mame version will reenable all sets.
As I said: there is no real reason to disable clones.

ClrMamePro IS easy to use..
Load a dat, setup rompaths, hit scan...tadaa ;)
Most CMPro users will tell you that it's easy...

i don't have any of them and clrmame keeps boring me with them
how do i know if i miss clone roms/romsets or parents roms/romsets quickly?
how do i know if in a new mame a parent became a clone (i.e. kof98 in 0.72)???
how to view the romsets i have in the scanner results instead of only the problematic ones?
tell me, clrmame is for those who collect all roms or what?
because mame32 is the best manager even if you have to do all the changes manually: it provides all missing roms/romsets, disable unavailable clones romsets
it only needs a missing roms/romsets folder but i think you can add it in the source, and it doesn't list roms information in non-missing romsets (annoying to remove a clone that is merged in a parent romset)

and i did't said clrmame is complex but romcenter is more easy :)

ps: i know clrmame isn't only for mame rom managing

> how do i know if i miss clone roms/romsets or parents roms/romsets quickly?

The detailed scanner output shows all you need. Or do a quick save misslist. Not as accurate as a real scan, but some people like it. Besides a full scan is fast, too.

ClrMamePro shows this in the detailed scanner output.

There is no need for that. Besides the output depends on the chosen settings. You can't really say a set is 100% ok if you only scan for (e.g.) missing roms. There can be no missing roms while there are dozens of wrong named ones or unneeded files.


> tell me, clrmame is for those who collect all roms or what?

Most people DO collect all roms. Besides you can easily scan only the files you have. Settings->Sets->Avail.Games

MAME32 isn't a manager. MAME32 is a win32 port of MAME with an included GUI.

MAME's audit functions are lousy. They don't care about a lot of things.

> and i did't said clrmame is complex but romcenter is more easy :)

In fact I tried it once because I wanted to learn about their datfile format. I was completely lost in that gui...no idea what to do and where to do.
..and most 'rom collection professionals' dropped RC a long time ago...


anyway...use whatever you want.

i give up, i'm tired of speaking english...
i return to the romcenter/mame32 combo for mame management as i have always do
i keep clrmame for the "case" checking :) (joking)

ps: it will be cool if clrmame can make a dat off a good EXE

Well...that's your choice...but definetly not a wise one. You should definetly learn how to use CMPro. Check out www.mameworld.net/easyemu for a tutorial.

My private build already can do that ;) Guess how I make the GOOD datfiles...8)
...and direct datfile import from mame, raine, mess, pinmame, pacmame, etc.. is in the official build since ages...

Missing features? I told you that all of your wanted things ARE already included in ClrMamePro. You don't read carefully.
