I'm looking for a gamesys. I know there are some entries in the gamesys called
P-Timerstim
P-Pulsestim
P-Inertstim
P-Pingstim
P-Reset
Vision1
Garretmod
CreatureMod
Minorstore
Icewalkstore
Snowrunstore
...
"P" as a prefix has been used a lot. It might be the authors first name.

What's the name of the gam file?
If you have a mission, and the gam is missing, Dromed will say what gam it's looking for when you try to load it.

I don't know the gam file or the mission file. The names appear under 'missing' in the archetype.

Did you at some point import a multibrush?

As Daraan said, you can get Missing stuff if you import a multibrush, or also if you open a .mis file and the .gam is missing.

I didn't add a multibrush, somebody else did. I already know this. I want to find out which mission was multibrushed.
Will try this, RSoul. Thank you :thumb:
I've a question. The tool works well with some FMs but not with others. I think the tool can't handle characters like "_" or "-" in the zip name. Is a filename with many characters bad (such as "Ack!Theresazombieinthebasementv.11.zip")?
Edit: I renamed everything to numbers, so the characters shouldn't matter any more. But the progress beam is still pending, so there must be another issue. Is a gam file required? Many zips don't have a gam. Maybe the search engine is looking for a gam, it can't find any in a zip and quits.
I wish I knew which FM is the culprit. The program wouldn't tell me.
Edit 2: I figured out what's wrong. Sometimes there are zips in the zips (translations, hints, whatnot). So I need to extract it.

It should make no difference if there's a zip within a zip*
The only way I could get it to hang was when there was a non-archive file in the folder.
Here's a version that only looks for archives (by checking the file extensions), and it displays the current filename on screen in case of an internal problem:

* When I say zip, I mean archive, because this program actually uses 7zip's own dll file, so it'll support other formats too. 7z is the most likeley alternative to zip.

You're a hero :)
I found it. A mighty tool.
