GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
What steps will reproduce the problem?
1. Create a Dual GB XML file
2. Load XML File in EmuHawk

What is the expected output? What do you see instead?
The Dump Status Report says, "Warning: ROM of unknown character"

What version of the product are you using? On what operating system?
SVN Build 7575

Please provide any additional information below.
The ROMs I chose were Pokémon Blue and Pokémon Red.  They are valid dumps.

The frontend doesn't know what "two roms" is, so a single hash is presented to 
it, which is a composite hash based on both of the inserted roms.  That way, 
your pokeyman blue + pokeyman red hash will match anyone else's when the same 
two roms are used, and not match otherwise.  But then adding all of that to a 
gamedb would be an O(n^2) thing; maybe the best answer is to have the frontend 
become aware of multiple roms at once?

I was thinking if the XML is telling EmuHawk, load these Two ROMS, then hash 
both and compare both.  Though, that may slow things down when a user loads the 
games up.
