Verified CRC is that your rom is a clean certified version. Some ORIGINAL games from ERE have protections that cap32 cannot reproduce at this momment. All the games you mention are in fail-db (you see a notification when load this rom if you have that enabled).
Check our list: https://github.com/libretro/libretro-cap32/blob/master/libretro/db/db-fail.h
The reason that exists clean-cpc is because tosec and other "rom packs" are plenty of cracked/bugged versions.
thanks for your response !
Sorry, I was confused by clean-cpc-db_have.txt && clean-cpc-db_miss.txt, I thinked that miss.txt was the non working games, and that the hash error was non matching hash.
Just curious, what is your tosec source with originals version ?
No problem, and thanks for your report anyway :+1:
The sources are authors pages, my dumps and cleanups and Bruno (Kukulcan) from https://www.cpc-power.com/
clean-cpc db is same idea that no-intro but for our CPC machines :cake: Work/Issue: https://github.com/libretro/libretro-cap32/issues/112
As you can see in the issue, we started using tosec list as an started source and is was a totally mess... :wastebasket: wrong versions, missing loaders, games, loading screens...
@DSkywalk ah ok, I thinked you was only used tosec as source.
I have looked at another source of original disks, in the "amstradmaniav7" game compilation from 2014:
https://pixeldrain.com/u/HRKCge66
They are a "extras/original disk" directory in the collection:
I tested some of them and they are all working:
sram sram2 qin bob morane - science fiction skate ball
hello @aderumier!
What is the source of this original dump? because for example SRAM original disks are protected by
Protection Remi HERBULOT - 10-1985 - v2.1
(not working on cap32 yet)
One more thing, could you correct your review in archive? because it can be misleading to other users, thanks! :+1:
mmm, indeed I'm not sure they are the original.
I have tried to do myself convert with samdisk tool, from raw dump, and I got the same result, it's not working.
I see on cpc-power that the image is working with Sugarbox emulator, so maybe it's just no yet working with caprice32.
Thanks for your hard work ! (I'll try to contribute soon with remap)
(and I'll fix the comment on archive.org)
Hi,
I have problem running some games from the cpc clean db 1.2 package from: https://archive.org/details/amstrad-cpc-clean-db
some games example:
sram2 qin zombi (spain) zombi (france) zombi (de)
I have verified, the md5 of dsk are ok and match the .dat
but when I'm lauching them (libretrocap 4.5.4), I have a computer_hash_file error displayed and game is not launching. Tested with caprice32, the game is not launching too.
If I used .dsk from tosec, the files have different size, and are working correcting (and no crc hash error in libretro) https://archive.org/download/tosec-main/Amstrad/CPC/Games/%5BDSK%5D/Amstrad%20CPC%20-%20Games%20-%20%5BDSK%5D%20%28TOSEC-v2023-06-14%29.zip
