Summary 04267: -verifyroms list nonexistent roms as bad
Description This is similar to issue 444, but I guess I should open a new one since the old one is marked as fixed. As before, quite a lot of sys573 roms light up as bad, even though I don't have them in my rompath, only the bios. Similar thing started to happen with with goldnaxe clones.
$ mame -verifyroms sys573
romset sys573 is good
1 romsets found, 1 were OK.
$ mame -verifyroms gtfrk3ma
gtfrk3ma: 949jaa.u1 (548 bytes) - NOT FOUND (shared with parent)
gtfrk3ma: ge949jab.u1 (4116 bytes) - NOT FOUND (shared with parent)
gtfrk3ma: 949jaa.u6 (8 bytes) - NOT FOUND (shared with parent)
gtfrk3ma: ge949jab.u6 (8 bytes) - NOT FOUND (shared with parent)
gtfrk3ma: 949jab02 - NOT FOUND
romset gtfrk3ma [gtrfrk3m] is bad
1 romsets found, 0 were OK.
$ mame -verifyroms goldnaxe
goldnaxe: 317-0123a.bin (4096 bytes) - NOT FOUND - NO GOOD DUMP KNOWN
romset goldnaxe is best available
1 romsets found, 1 were OK.
$ mame -verifyroms goldnaxe1
goldnaxe1: epr-12389.ic2 (262144 bytes) - NOT FOUND (shared with parent)
goldnaxe1: epr-12388.ic1 (262144 bytes) - NOT FOUND (shared with parent)
goldnaxe1: 317-0110.key (8192 bytes) - NOT FOUND (shared with parent)
romset goldnaxe1 [goldnaxe] is bad
1 romsets found, 0 were OK.
Steps To Reproduce 1) put non-merged goldnaxe.zip in the roms folder.
2) take out any clone sets of goldnaxe from the roms folder
3) -verifyroms "any of clone sets"

Are your romsets fully merged (all roms in parent), split merged (each set has unique roms) or fully unmerged (all roms that a set needs is in the zip, even if shared by parent)?

There have been assorted reports of -verifyroms oddness, but nothing concrete as to a surefire way to trigger it.

I didn't manage to let -verifyroms to output "(shared with parent)" in any combination (marging goldnaxe1 with goldnaxe, putting goldnaxe1 and marged goldnaxe, copied and renamed the merged goldnaxe as goldnaxe1).
If I remove any files of goldnaxe1 and do -verifyroms, MAME suggested approximate game name matches instead reporting ROM check result.

I guess you might have goldnaxe1 ROMs somewhere else?? Anyway, we need your ROM compositions to confirm the issue.

In my case, I don't even use clones, but it's listing that the roms for them are missing/incorrect. In the case of goldnaxe, it's showing that I'm missing the roms for its clones but I don't even have or use them. It doesn't remove them from the list until I download the clone roms and add them to the parent rom zip.

This started from u3. And I confirmed it in some games.
Even in the same driver, some games have "bad" message and others don't, for example:
aliensyn, fpoint, eswat, shinobi, sdi : "Missing" message
wb, goldnaxe, altbeast : "Bad" message

We don't find out what is common among "BAD" sets yet.

It's not present in r11570 and is showing up in r11587. Strongly suspect issue with r11587 which involves hash collection rewrites.

I'm glad that you managed to reproduce this. Keep in mind though that the issue with gtfrk3ma was present before u3.
Out of the files involved, I only have sys573.zip, which contains 700a01.22g and digital-id.bin in my rompath.

From my quick test, the first version -verifyroms reports BAD for gtfrk3ma is 0.123.
In 0.122, it returns just "romset "gtfrk3ma" not found!", it could be a different problem.

in u4, goldnaxe problem is gone but gtfrk3ma/gtfrk10ma one remains.
