game renaming fails because game title doesn't differ on the first 16

FYI: Found out you don't have to rename to something completely random. You can just change the first letter. Then rename to whatever. |
Hi. This is hard to explain.... Your partition name takes a few chars of the game title, around 17 In order for the rename to be valid, you must change one of those chars. Example: In order to properly rename, one of the characters in bold must change. I will see if I can propose a fix for this on HdlDump |

this will be a hard to fix issue The problem you're experiencing is a error handling code of the rename function, wich is originally designed to check if a partition with such name already exists, but this check is backfiring cause it 'thinks' that the partition you're about to rename is a different partition the solution will be tricky |
Not that big a deal. Just annoying having to rename twice. But I'll live lol. |
wow ok thanks this good info! |
Hi, I loaded about 150 games with the program. I checkmarked the Use Database option before loading. There are certain games I would like to rename to how I like. I renamed 4 games just fine, then on the fifth and every game afterwards it will not allow me to rename. For example I'm trying to rename: Ratchet & Clank - Going Commando to Ratchet & Clank 2 - Going Commando. But it doesn't rename and says the following:
HDL.EXE modify hdd2: "Ratchet & Clank - Going Commando" "Ratchet & Clank 2 - Going Commando"
hdd2:: partition with such name already exists: "Ratchet & Clank - Going Commando".
I did find a workaround though. If I rename the game to something completely random like - hgfh. Then rename again to the desired name, it lets me.
