Does not work on 7zipped files, needs to be extracted to work.

[Elijah067]

I tried to use this on my DS no-intro set which is 7zipped but the generator says that WARNING: no eligible candidates for <rom name> have been found!. I tried to extract the roms and the generator works fine.

I also tried --no-scan on the 7zipped rom files and it also does not work. Maybe due to the file extensions.

Indeed, it cannot check the contents of 7-zip archives. That is already implemented in DATROMTool and it does work, but it won't be implemented in 1g1r-romset-generator.

If you want to use --no-scan with compressed files, you need to add -e 7z so it knows it can match .7z files by name. Otherwise, it'll look only for .nds files (or whatever happens to be the extension used in the DAT you're using).

ROMSorter will convert 7z and rar rom collections to standard zip so they work with 1g1r generator script

@jvook just a FYI, I have something in the works for that as well :)
