MAMEWorld Forums - EmuChat - Re: Help excluding systems from ClrMAME Pro scan

Guess you have a wrong understanding here...so:

1) Disabling "CHD" will disable scanning the chds within sets, not roms, samples or the sets themselves...if Area51 (and clones) are listed, they are most likely listed with missing/wrongnamed/wrongplaced/etc. roms or general set information. To see this, you need to expand the tree item.

2) Prize Money * sets have nothing to do with the MPU4 video firmware bios set. They are standard sets, defined in the sourcefile mpu4sw.c and do not use any bios....so if you disable the video firmware bios, you don't do anything to solve your task..

So...I guess you want to disable all gambling games and chd games....well, latter one is easy since we got an easy expression for it (%h=1 + invert)....gambling games is not so easy since there is no flag for it....you might want to disable all which have mpu4 in the driver name...so let's try this:

Go to systems first and reenable everything...then go to scanner set-information screen (scanner tree window, button bottom left), reset your current limitation by hitting select all and removing any entry from "From File" and "Select Sets"....so back to normal now...actually you can also reenable the 'CHD' button, too.

Let's limit your selection now....enter

%h=1;%s=*mpu4*

in select sets, hit apply and hit invert...that's it. "Incl. Clones/Parent/Decives/BIOS" checkboxes can be unticked.

%h=1 means you enable all sets which got a chd
%s=*mpu4* means you enable all sets which got "mpu4" somewhere in the sourcecode file name....semicolon is the separator and since you want to exclude them, you simply invert them afterwards. (Don't use the logical not checkbox since it will separately on each separated part and in you case will reenable sets you don't want).
