does it use the images that are used for OFFLINE LIST yet dave?

will save a whole heap of downloading them all again if it does

 

[doyama]

Is there an alternate download site I can use? I can't even get the main program to work now because almost everything gives me an exception error.

Sorry not yet mate, I'll try adding it into the utils when I get a chance.

No there isn't. I can't afford to pay for server space so what I've got is what I've got. Have you tried deleting the whole DSFCC folder and starting again completely? What OS are you on BTW?

Hmm I've now figured out why it's not working but it's still a bit odd. It appears that from my Verizon FIOS connection, I am unable to download anything from the hosted website. However from Comcast I can connect (slowly but it works). I've tried rebooting my router and such but to no avail.

I'll just have to test it on my other machine. Sorry for all the fuss, it was just such an odd issue.

It's no worries, any problems you find just post them. I don't know what's up with not being able to connect using Verizon though. The site I host the stuff on is a legitimate business site so it shouldn't be in any blocklists anywhere.

Um.. I can't find a download link on the Wordpress site. I've tried a bunch of links, but the only thing I can find is "Check the download center for installable packs." but there's no link?

Ignore that, I found it.. though it was a little fiddly to find.

hi all, i downloaded this after finally finding it and when i first tried to run it i got a unrar.dll error so i downloaded the unrar.dll file which fixed that issue but now it still wont run cause it gets this error “DSFCC.exe has encountered a problem and needs to close. We are sorry for the inconvenience.” i posted it on the blog but got no response so i thought i would try here to see if anybody could help me perhaps fix this problem...


Thanks a bunch...

What was the name of the file you downloaded? If it's saying that it can't find the unrar.dll then the archive hasn't unpacked properly. You're probably getting the error message because there are files missing from the setup. Try redownloading it and unpacking it again.

 

[magic_marty]

ive tried redownloading it several times and i noticed when i do download it its not in rar form its the actual exe file...

i downloaded it a filefactory and it its named DSFCC.EXE ..

 

[TrolleyDave]

Then it's definitely not the right one. Use this link

I've been getting the "Read beyond end of file" error every time I run DSFCC now. I tried deleting the data folder and the error went away until I restarted the program then it always comes back.

So when I click on my GBA releases, I get "list index out of bounds (1)", with the 0.21 release.

Also, much more importantly... I think that backup saves should backup ALL saves, not just the highlighted ones, and that includes DS and GBA saves.

Edit: And also that old bug with creating a CycloDS folder in C: on launch seems to be back, but this time with the __ak2 folder.

Edit2: Actually my guess about the GBA releases crash is because I'd been scanning the Anguna GBA rom to add, accidentally. I'm deleting the database and I'll check that now.

Edit3: I tried adding everything but Anguna and the patched Mother 3 into my GBA list now, and it's telling me there's an issue with the IDX file creation or something like that. I think I'm just going to skip out on using the GBA features, but the DS stuff is rock solid like always.

Try deleting the dscrossref.idx file from the data folder. I've just release 0.22 anyway and it should overcome the problem. It started happening to me as well.

I'll look into doing all saves when doing the backups. I'll try and add it in tonight. The GBA and NDS libraries use the same code so they should be as solid as each other, but knowing me I've forgot to put a check in somewhere for something on the GBA side! lol Can you send the data files by email? You can use DSFCC to send me one.

In other news! lol I've released v0.22, here's the changes.

0.22
+ Now takes icon data direct from header.
+ If you already have OfflineList on your hard drive you can now use the images you already have instead of downloading.
+ Added some error checking.

*** To update to this version you have to use the Update drop down menu and select DSFCC. The program will auto-upgrade itself.

To set it to use OfflineList images go into the Utilities panel and tick the tickbox. Select the drive that OfflineList is on and hit the scan button. You're now ready to use OfflineList images! It doesn't download new images, it will only use OfflineList images that already exist on the hard drive.

When trying to recompress them into 7zip or even zip for that matter, if i check trim rom, i always get a "File Access Denied" and if I uncheck it, it ends up putting all the roms in the same zip/7zip file name (whichever was first on the list). So instead of several individual files, I have one file with all the roms.

Try deleting the WORK folder from the DSFCC folder.

whoooooooooooooooot cheers DAVE!!!

finally chance to leave OLL behind for something better without messing about re downloading 3000+ images

I suppose I can live with updating the images with OLL now and then for the odd few

No probs at all mate, sorry it took so long. You've just made me realize something, I should have put in an option to pull all the files from Offlinelist into the DSFCC release list. That way you could just import all the images for the release list, add your games to the library and drop Offlinelist altogether. Give me a few hours and I'll sort it out! lol Cheers for the suggestion mate, it's definitely a good one!

Now it'll work to put them in individual files, but I still can't check the trim roms, or I get "File Access Denied"

Try deleting the settings.ini file from the data folder.
