Hardware WiiWare / Virtual Console Dats for OfflineList / ClrMamePro

[Adr990]

Dude! That's freaking awesome!

There must have been spend days into this.

Thanks!

 

[Madridi]

Helllo to all,
in these days Try to build a command line renamer that use your dat,
but easily convert to a tool to manage missing entry and help to mantain db.

Choose WiiWare::ClrMamePro Nukes DAT for it's easy format :

game (
ÂÂÂÂname "4 - Block Breaker Deluxe (JP)"
ÂÂÂÂdescription "4 - Block Breaker Deluxe (JP)"
ÂÂÂÂrom ( name "4 - Block Breaker Deluxe (JP).wad" size 37555072 crc 02E5AAA2 )
)

With some implementations anyone can easily edit ClrMamePro Wiiwares DAT using CRC32

-Select folder with Wiiware wad files
-select wad
-tool calculate wad's CRC32, if not found ask for missing information and save new entry

Post first 'beta' but if anyone interested i can finish it.

Hello again,
find lot of difference between GBATEMP release list and NUKE one, why?

Thank you for reply,

m.

 

[ocdcsv]

trying to sortout my wad collection and ran it through the offlinelist with the dats from the first post.

None were found for wiiware and VC listing (normal or nukes)

Thought hmmm
Went and downloaded the latest Tales of Monkey 2 and unrared it to the verify directory
It moved it as an unknown into the unknown directory.

What am I missing.

 

[Nago]

Updated WW, sorry for the Lapse. I claim the standard "Busy with College!" excuse. I haven't abandoned the project.

VC to come soon.


Gbatemp's WW database differs from mine because I go back and correct previous entries, Gbatemp's list is really only like a newsticker: one they neglected for nearly half a year, at that. If there are any differences you are concerned about in particular, feel free to ask: otherwise, assume that my dat is the "more correct".

 

[Madridi]

Glad to see you back Nago

Thanks for WW update, waiting for VC

Hello again,
made little tool that use also your .dat for Wiiware and VC renaming task.

Script aslo has some nice feature, as snopshot tool to prepare .png usefull
for NAND emulation and apps SD Apps folder.

And allow anyone to create .dat file is easy way. Give a try

[Madridi]

lots of games has been released.
Major update needed

 

[Barta]

Maybe it's time to begin a new project and try to make the list updateable through a webpage.
Maybe more people will help maintaining the list. A little database behind it and we have always an up to date list.
It would be nice if we could include Wii, WiiWare, VC, NDS, PSP....
If we all maintain the site together, it would require a minimum effort from each contributer.

Any thoughts?

 

[Nago]

I do apologize for not being as prompt as I promised for updates. I did actually begin working on a webpage back when I started this project (during the summer), but it was halted much for the same reason updates have been sparse currently which is that this is my last semester (before my degree), and I've been quite busy.

At any rate: WW is updated, VC has not yet.


Edit: If anyone seriously wants to try their hand and making a better system (A website), please contact me for my current script toolset and database dumps. I just don't have the time, and I know very, very little javascript, and as easy as Jquery is, it's still too much for me. In the future I may offer direct mySQL dumps of the table every time I update.

Good idea, as long as the website maintainers are carefully chosen and the site has some security on updates. I hate to think what would happen if the wrong people started to mess. Also, you want people who understand when a title needs to be removed and when a "proper" needs to replace a title. Would be great if the DAT updates had a change log to for the maintainers to check on each others work

I'd be happy to participate as a Dat contributor but my website coding skills are pretty much zero!

Can anyone make/point people to a guide for using these dats with clrmamepro ?

I've had a google and found a few guides for using clrmamepro, but I can't seem to get Wiiware working

Feeling really dumb, and at first I was like w0000t this app (clrmamepro) can tidy up all my nes/snes/DS/Wiiware stuff, but it seems it just wants to taunt me

 

[Madridi]

why dont u use offline list.. its easier i think

 

[Slimmmmmm]

why dont u use offline list.. its easier i think

Cause I've never tried anything like this so am a n00b to it, but after getting a few people say they hate clrmame I decided to have a look at offline, and it's sooooo much better and easier for a first time user to understand. Just wish I had tried that before wasting an hour with clrmame

Hello to all,
also my little tool use clearmame .dat : http://www.megaupload.com/?d=DME6PG3F

Plus has internal .dat that rename .wad with lot of info, eg:

Madstone_[WW]_[USA]_[WMDE]_[574d4445]_[89D8E8DE].wad

where :
Code

Madstone = internal wad name
[WW] = system
[USA] = country
[WMDE] = title ID
[574d4445] = ticket
[89D8E8DE] = CRC

To identify these info i use standard schema.

for system use first letter of title ID

Does anyone know if it's possible to disable compression completely in offlinelist? Seems totally pointless compressing the already-compressed, then having the uncompress them again in order to install the WADs...

 

[MyGen]

Is this not being updated anymore?

 

[MarvinMar]

I am wondering the same thing. No recent updates?
