Issues with recent DAT updates

[Collecter]

The "Nintendo - Nintendo DSi (DLC) (CDN)" dat lost its only entry, Cave Story.

Was this not needed?
The current dat has nothing inside

[xuom2]

CDN datfiles are experiments. we are testing how and which data to store. items may appear and disappear.
Hiccup, should we put a (WIP) in front of dsi and new3ds CDN?

I have an issue with 2 dats since some days (maybe a recent upgrade), the DS and N64 ones.

When I download them, they are named like this:

• Nintendo - Nintendo DS (Decrypted)
• Nintendo - Nintendo 64 (BigEndian)

But when they are imported into clrmamepro, they appear like this:

• Nintendo - Nintendo DS Decrypted
• Nintendo - Nintendo 64 BigEndian

And since the same time, for those 2 dats, when thee is an update, they don't appear as updated in the WWW Mode (profile.xml) feature and I need to compare manually they last update date/time.

I have another issue too, I can't use my nickname here into DoM in the shoutbox (I tried to login but all is invalid, I think it's reserved for datters/dumpers/etc.), I can only post quick message as guest.

yes, you need a specific account on DOM. without it, your nickname is "protected" from any guest that wants to use it. Including you

z010 - LEGO City Undercover - The Chase Begins (USA) (Demo) (Kiosk) is absent in decrypted 3DS.

xuom2, could you do something with this? As I thought problem with absent decrypted files was solved for old ones and new ones should be always good - but I was wrong it seems... Maybe you can do some sort of check to ensure both encrypted and decrypted are present before save (or something along these lines)? As really I do not feel safe anymore using decrypted dat because of such discrepancy...

[xuom2]

It was the last one (there is a tool to check the missing data: Search / Reports / #9).
I think it was added directly without Decrypted data.

Added, thanks.

The same thing is actually happening with "Wii (Digital)", which, once downloaded, is labelled "Wii (Digital) (WAD)". Thank you for fixing this

Wii (Digital) doesn't appear in profiler
