Sure ...

So first grab the copy from Logiqx.com (left, Datutil).
Its a commandline tool that converts your dats between various formats, mainly CMP/RC.

Enter the commandline in your OS, point it to the directory containing the tool and the dat file that needs to be converted.

See the documentation for the correct options (should be none for CMP -> RC 2.0) , enter it like

E:>datutil.exe my_dat_file.dat

After that you should see a new file in the RC 2.0 format (can easy be checked by opening the file in an texteditor (compare the 'Style' with the old file and see the difference).

Hope that helped...

I tried just a minute ago to convert JhonIV snaps from Clrmame to RC 2.0 and that worked like a charm...

Did i miss something?

yep i know it :D
and RomCenter uses it

but it doesn't work to create DAT for MAME sample, artwork, snaps...
Only ROMs are listed :(

other way ?

Convertor ClrMamePro to RomCenter ?

by Marcopolo » Tue May 11, 2004 9:31 pm

is there any chance to have one day a DAT convertor for RomCenter to use ClrMamePro's DAT ?

because MAME samples, snaps, artworks ... are not up to date :(
(except for ClrMamePro)
i don't like ClrMamePro's management and option

i hope someone will create this tool for all RomCenter's fans :D
