Please post bugs and future feature-suggestions here

played a bit with it.

It would be nice if you could add a "on-the-fly" rename function. Copying the Rom to a different Folder takes to much space and time (especially when converting a complete collection of DS Games)

And as always, without custom renaming patterns not my favorite rom manager

 

[t_kiddie]

v0.003:
-"real" RenameAll function added really fast
-old RenameAll function named "Copy all to..." now

custom patterns will be next

Just took a look at your Database.

It doesnt get updated automatically just now or does it?

And im also curious where you get this database file.

 

[t_kiddie]

It doesn't get updatet automatically right now.
Same as on tkro1: I generated it from advanscene.com.
But it is not a original advanscene db-file

 

[t_kiddie]

please tell me what rename-pattern options you'd like to have in tkro2
ill also need some testers for my trim function as i don't even own a nds anymore

do the roms have to be zipped? joined the site just to use your organizer. I have almost every english rom available, i may be missing one or two, unfortunately, most of my roms are trimmed. for tkromorganizer to see the roms, can they be in .nds format, do they have to be zipped, I d/l the program go to my roms, but either it does not see them or I have too many. they are all in .nds format right now

v0.004 - 12.06.2012:
-simple romtrimmer added (a bit slow)

they have to be in .nds format right now.
what debug messages does it show?
how is your romfolder called? maybe some spaces in the path? (didnt test if it can handle them)

try to copy some of your roms into a seperate folder to try if they are just too many

warning: no folder selected [tko.gui.Gui.loadRomFolder(Gui.java:214)]
I have tried creating a new folder on the desktop and a new folder where the roms are, (secondary hdd), it will not load anything.

the roms folder on the secondary hdd is labelled unkn, the desktop folder had no name, does it require a specific name?

 

[macearl]

For The Rename Pattern i would like The Title, The Region and The Number.

Region and Title are already in your DB but the Numbers are missing so you would need to modify your script/program which downloads and modifies the Database for you.

Also i would like to ask if you will publish the source code someday.

Played a bit with the new Version looks fine with the exception of the Trim Feature. Im not sure what it does it creates 2 Files

For Example:
3785 - Anno - Create a New World (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).nds (O KB)
and
3785 - Anno - Create a New World (Europe) (En,Fr,De,Es,It).nds_trimmed.nds (2 KB)

Im not sure if it is still working or nothing more happens. Also there is nothing in the Log

First of all it has to have a name but it doesnt have to have a specific name.
Ill give you a example how it works for me:
I got a folder C:\bla\test\roms with some roms in it like this:
C:\bla\test\roms\1.nds
C:\bla\test\roms\12.nds and so on
I start up tkro2 click File>Loadromfolder
Select C:\bla\test\roms (not a file just select the folder)
click open

The Error you get gets called when the "folder" you selected is no folder. It's not an error that gets called by my code but by a java standart method.
Please tell me if its still not working now. If so send me a pm with your romfolderpath in it ill see if there are any unsupported symbols in it but there shouldn't be any.

Thanks i actually forgot to add some logmessages for the trim-part
It should only produce the *_trimmed.nds file.
Well think the trim function is kind of buggy :/ Hope you only tried it with a copy of the rom Im sorry if you didnt :/
I tried it myself and it worked for my 4 testroms it actually might take a short while but no longer than 1 minute.
For the moment i'll just develop it on my own except for some localization-tasks maybe I just want to keep it clear until its in a real beta status
