dude you will save me if you can tell me what to use to split the pc dat into cd and dvd. splitting the iso and bin entries into two dats

Here you go. Just rename the PC Dat to "RDPC.dat" and stick it in the same folder as this program. It will output "RDPC_BIN.DAT" and "RDPC_ISO.DAT".

There was also spaces between some blank fields, so I recreated those too.

Anyways, I threw together this crappy program in VB (I'm more of a scripting guy, myself). You'll probably need the .NET framework if you don't have it.

Just rename the redump.org dat to "RD.dat", and throw it in the same folder as the program. Run it, and it'll create "NEW.DAT".

This is how the formatting looks like:

<game name="Tekken 2 (USA)" index="true" image="t">
    <description>Tekken 2 (USA)</description>
    <cloneof></cloneof>
    <crc></crc>
    <manufacturer></manufacturer>
    <year></year>
    <genre></genre>
</game>

Index is first game of that letter / number. Image is the first letter / number of the game name. . The rest needs to be filled in manually I guess. CRC is not used at the moment. Here some example DATS: http://hyperlist.hyperspin-fe.com/

For example, here's Tekken 2 (USA) for the PlayStation:

    <game name="Tekken 2 (USA)">
        <description>Tekken 2 (USA)</description>
        <rom name="Tekken 2 (USA).cue" size="306" crc="7b45c1a8" md5="b28b88a353507118f1586d71eef1b7c0" sha1="73b58d9c70c59f0f2a6b19ad9d04e9a61f820256"/>
        <rom name="Tekken 2 (USA) (Track 1).bin" size="717922128" crc="7ab1c17b" md5="b2ce9448df23b0378f7bf5cce901eecc" sha1="2b6a371fc70c2e625f238ef98104ad1d2a07a5bc"/>
        <rom name="Tekken 2 (USA) (Track 2).bin" size="26554080" crc="9a0d6a04" md5="9f64359d59fa921a68dea3300bd54ac2" sha1="5faad8d827cc9390dc097e75822e23c2f4953364"/>
        <rom name="Tekken 2 (USA) (Track 3).bin" size="6350400" crc="d387cac5" md5="131bb82eb1ba56b4991091f1717770a2" sha1="47eb5ef6093e80099f710b7e221b461ca3ab3c26"/>
    </game>

What do you want the result to look like?

I just need an XML with the filenames. It's a pain to edit them manually for use with Hyperspin frontend: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2LbtvmdR … re=related
