Re: Adventures of Lomax, The (USA) bin 25 misslabe

I'm glad someone finally noticed! Some CD based games have multiple copies of the same file and The Vault incorrectly gives them the same name. This has been going on for months, maybe years, and nobody's said a word! I just discovered it last weekend and have been working to identify and fix the bad disks. You can simply rename the duplicate .bin from "Track 08" to "Track 25" and it'll work fine.
The Vault detects the issue now but fixing it's a bit tricky. Both files have the same name so if I rename one 7-zip renames both. That doesn't help! Today I took a different approach and will just rebuild the whole zip. It's much slower, but much easier. I just finished tweaking the process and am running tests now, so if all looks well I'll let the fix process overnight. There's easily over 100 games affected throughout The Vault so it'll likely take a couple days to finish.
Thanks for reporting that!

so bin 25 is misslabeled as bin 8 making 2 bin 8 files making the game unplayable.
