Thanks for the update. I was afraid that Pokemon Soul Silver was going to be forever mislabeled in my library.

Seem to be having a problem with Warioware DIY though. It's not showing up in the database. edit: Oh wait, nevermind. I was looking at the GBAtemp list. I guess that one doesn't match up with the "official" one. Boo.

I'm glad someone is keeping Rominator alive!

On a down note, the updates don't seem to work for me - but I'm on a Mac so I'm sure that's where the issue lies.

These updates work fine on a Mac. Copy the DS.ROD file into user/library/preferences/Rominator Data. Put the box art files into the NDS Box Art subfolder. NOTE:You may have to go back several manual updates to get all the box art files. These updates typically only have incremental box art files.

I've followed all those steps, but it's not working.

I don't compress my ROMs so that could be the issue.

I know when windsur first took over I was having similar problems until he figured it out.

ROMs don't need to be compressed to use the rename function. It will work on uncompressed ROMs just fine.

I'm sorry, but this is not true on my computer. Any suggestions on what else I can try?

It would be super helpful if there was a separate file with the box art so i don't need to download each update to get them... That way people could just put replace the folder, or just click "Do not replace all" when moving the files.

Hi all,

To start off, I cleaned my stuff up on the FileTrip server.
I separated the box art from the database file for my releases 4727-4800 and 4801-4836.

Boxart 4727-4800
Boxart 4801-4836

An small update is posted:
Roms 4837-4851
Boxart 4837-4851

That's it from me this time.

Looking for help using these new ROD files. And thank you for continuing to maintain these.

I'm getting an "unhandled error has occurred" error with a blank error code when using the rods made by the either of the 2 new maintainers. I deleted all previous installs of Rominator and downloaded a fresh copy of the lastest ROD file, 4851.

The error occurs once I left click on a .nds file that has been imported.

Would like to know what I'm doing wrong please.

Thanks.

Have the latest updates already posted here.

For some reason I keep getting a bad crc check for Dementium II (4933).

Which dump/ dump patch combo is correct, or does the ds.rod need to be updated?

Thanks in advance for any help/answers!

    I personally handled a call from the second highest person at Raytheon. That call bothered me a lot... The guy was nice and smart what bothered me was the way management basically just blew him off instead of going the extra mile to help him.
  • Psionic Roshambo @ Psionic Roshambo:
    In the end that call ended up costing Dell millions in lost contracts with Raytheon, and really the issue could have been solved for like 450 bucks lol
