Problem Details:
Since yesterdays update osu! just creates backup databases after each exit.


I also noticed this in osu!.db (with is also new)

Is this really supposed to be saved in such way?

I've tested this on a fresh osu install- same thing happens:


osu! version: 20140609.14 (latest)

Same thing happens here sometimes

But I think it some sort of backup done while updating beatmap index, and sometimes something happens that don't lets deletion of the backup.
That's just a theory tho.

Cannot replicate on fresh install. No, they should not look like that. Something on your system is verrrrrrrrrry fucked.

No .db files here. =3=)

In the first post I've just updated old osu version(like 2 months old) and it was spilling backup db's
Now what I did just now:
-created new folder
-ran osume in it
-got some beatmaps(via osu!direct)
-restarted few times

and no duplicates, but file is still fucked up

Checked with a hex editor, here's my osu!.db file:


I found that this happens also for other s since on osu!Post people found some issues too.
EDIT: more readable version:

mine creates the .db and then it delete it

Something is ... reeally wrong... Not sure how to replicate that.

Can someone actually attach a db file. rather than you know, a screnshot?

30mb file.
http://thehowl.it/osuot/osu!.db

from fresh osu install (4beatmap sets - https://db.tt/69pnqa3o )
39kb
https://db.tt/fLFGZ5z4
or just 1 map ( https://osu-ppy-sh.jeuxcrack.net/b/292429 )
3kb
https://db.tt/iDstVOLM

Seems to be fixed for me(Don't know about others) on fresh osu! (will have to delete and refresh database in my standard osu! I guess) nvm file is fixed :- )



/me now going to decipher new vals in it :p

dunno if this is a fucked up file or a normal osu!.db file, so posting here
