bootleg/prototype wrong counts #27

Closed ghost closed 2 months ago

Hi

It seems the tool you use has small bugs. I downloaded your 0.269 files to compare.

Also the non-bootleg are not correct. You have 38768. I think you removed the bios and device, but i always keep them in there to have a 100% INI file (for my statistics needed). If you remove the bios and device from the total number of machines in MAME, you get 40558 machines, which is still more then 38768. So you are missing some. The sum of bootleg, non-bootleg, bios and device should always give you the total number of MAME machines. This is not true in your case, so you are missing some non-bootlegs.

Thank you. When I have time I'll check it out (right now I'm focused on other somewhat more urgent works).

I have done the verifications of the two files: the differences are about devices and BIOSes (the ini are only about machines).

In your bootleg ini file there are 32 more entries, but 2 are BIOSes and 30 devices: <html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">

Instead in your prototypes ini there are two more entries, two devices:

<html xmlns:v="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:vml" xmlns:o="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" xmlns:x="urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:excel" xmlns="http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-html40">

In that case, our results are the same. I include everything since I make statistics based on my INI files. So I need the full list.

But there is no real reason to remove BIOS and devices IMHO, because users can be interested in bootleg/prototype version of those too :) Your files are now missing that information.

For example this BIOS is a bootleg and not present in your file. Users interested in this information can't see it.
