Daeval Posted July 15, 2004 Posted July 15, 2004 What exactly are "BadDumps" and "NoDumps" according to CLR Mame? So far as I can gather, a Baddump is a file that doesn't match what the dat file was expecting, and a nodump is.. well, I have no idea... A file that just isn't listed in the.dat maybe? Ok, so I'm clueless. Anyone know? Further, why do some baddumps show up light blue, and others black on the scanner results window?
Wizard Posted July 15, 2004 Posted July 15, 2004 I would think Bad dumps, are, badly dumped roms. Uhh, No Dump...would be...um....*looks for james*
Agozer Posted July 15, 2004 Posted July 15, 2004 Well, bad dumps are rom images that got screwed up during the dumping process, therefore having bad graphics, sound etc. Nodumps is weird...as if there were never any dumps of a certain game...I'm not sure.
Daeval Posted July 15, 2004 Author Posted July 15, 2004 Ok thanks! So baddumps need to be replaced to get a working set, nodumps you can't really do anything about, I'm guessing. Now to track down some replacements..

Weirdy Posted July 16, 2004 Posted July 16, 2004 (edited) how does a stapler work? Edited July 16, 2004 by Weirdanzeige
Daeval Posted July 16, 2004 Author Posted July 16, 2004 (edited) When your box of staples is ambiguously marked: "These staples are bad" or "These staples do not exist", a stapler could get pretty complicated. Edited July 16, 2004 by Daeval
