Goodmerge has proven to be simple and decent on the surface, but when you get to the point where it has to start merging, it becomes the dumbest app I've ever used. I found this goodmerge thread after I kept getting this error when I kept trying to merge no-intro DS roms using the dat-o-matic xml & xmdb files.
GoodMerge 3.1.2199.25374 - 21/12/2008 20:35:06
Nintendo_-_DS 3169+x119 - Using a maximum of 1934MB RAM.
Transformers - Autobots
Decompressing… Done.
Error: No ROMs found matching "Transformers - Autobots (Europe).*"
It's really puzzling me why this error keeps coming up. All my settings look correct under the file locations, compression, advanced and other locations tabs. The have.txt I created with clrmame using the dat-o-matic xml file for nds seems correct - all list names correspond to the roms properly. I use the xmdb file from datomatic used with goodmerge, point goodmerge to the have.txt, etc. Source compression is zip, output 7z. I've left max amount of RAM on default.
I've pointed it to the 7z.exe file (there is no 7za used in the latest 7z program). Pointed to the Rar.exe file too for the WinRAR program.
I'll pull my hair out if I try to figure this out alone for much longer.
I'm hoping someone may know the solution to this annoying problem because I'm all out of ideas.
Merry Xmas.
