Help me find a tool to copy name roms

Hello.

I was trying to find a tool to copy the name roms over the UI emulator with one click.

I found one, "Get Window Text" but it only copy all the name roms in the Machine option with the normal name of each game, not the rom name directory file i want.

For example instead copy the rom kof94 it just copy the "King of Fighters '94 (Set 1)" and so on...

I need to find a way to read this completly without using clrmamepro, because without the name file rom, i can´t import the files i really want it manually.

With MAMEUI we can remove the sets we don´t want it, there is no option to extract in to a .txt file and only ArcadeUI does that.

If someone was able to help me.

Thanks.

 

Maybe, something like this?

mame -listfull > full.txt

for /f "tokens=1*" %i in (full.txt) do @echo copy %i.zip "%~nj.zip"

Not sure if I understand what you are asking for...

Let me explain.

MAMEUI it doesn´t have one function to extract .txt files only the games you want it.

I want to remove it and add it as a .txt for example 88games, 005 and so on.

With this .txt file i can import over the MAMEUI and load all the roms i want it on crlmamepro. It have this tool and JohnIV doesn´t add it! WHY!? 

Please JohnIV add the tools option. 

You can see on this picture.

I try to use the tool to read the name roms, but instead, it just read only the full name of the roms like '88 games instead of 88games.

So this is basically i'm trying to do.

On ArcadeUI works 100%, but it have a problem, it have many games screenless and a few games removed i really want it, so with this kind of original games without clones and not working one's are the solution to resolve my problem.

Someone need to do something to read only the roms that MAMEUI as never added it.

Always the mysterious "someone" has to fix it.

Perhaps if you asked nicely in the correct place...

It will be difficult, because it doesn´t have email on the site.

Can you help me ask him to add that option?

My reasons are very simple.

MAME is getting too big.

I don't have space.

I need the computer for other important data.

Games that don't work and clones are not necessary, let alone casino, pinball and etc...

John usually is at the MameWorld forum. Nex time complain him at that site...

And see what you get :)

I really don´t wanna complain him for not adding this option, it should just add it.

People need it, for frontends, need for buiding a arcade machine.  

I don´t have mameworld account.

Can you ask him to add this feature? 

MameUI is open source, people who need an option can always add it themselves.

 I don´t have the knowledge to add it, why is still not in there? One day will be necessary.

Here's a nother example: https://i.ibb.co/f19N2Zj/Image.png

I think this will understand very clear what i'm trying to do.

Is not that hard. 

Try Directory Tree List Maker

 

Try Directory Tree List Maker

This will not do what i want it.

This just only read what is inside of the folder, not inside of the program running to copy the list. 

With "Get Window Text" it copies all the Machine list over MAMEUI but not the Directory list i just want it.

if you untick everything in the options & point it to your roms folder you get this mine has chd files in as well but this is the finished txt

That just load the roms you have in the folder not in the emulator it self.

If the folder roms have no files what do you do to get the list? You can´t.

Check ARCADEUI and you see how to extract the .txt file correctly with the original roms without any clones and not working one's. 

MAMEUI doesn´t have this. 

The file you send me have all roms, there is no clones, or not working one's removed in the .txt file.

Problem solved, the official mame have a option to extract but it doesn´t hide MESS and Console.

It gives me 5931 working games, in mameui have 4562 games. 

Mameui hide better functions then mame it self, it should have MESS and Console in the left Menu we can able to hide in the custom filter.

Without the tools option in mameui we can´t have a perfect working and original arcade data.
