Post all your database changes here

[LB11]

As the topic states, if you feel something is not correct in the databases, or have a game not in them, post it here and we will get them fixed.

If you feel a category is not correct please check www.allgame.com first to see how it is listed there.

Keep in mind that the PC database has game names in there. If your shortcut (rom) is not named the same way it may not pull up the info even though it is in the database. Unfortunately there is no universal naming scheme like "goodname" or "NO-Intro" for PC games.

Ill see if I can create a list of all PC games in the database so you can quickly look if your game is there and name the link accordingly.

If its possible can a mod make this a pinned topic. Thanks

Okay according to this page we are missing the attached games for the Sega Dreamcast.

Oh TAB spacing should be 8 char...or things may look all nasty.

I was thinking more along the lines of when someone finds a game they have and use without info I could add it in. Thats gonna take forever!

Heh well I'll do the DC I guess...I own most the USA DC games anyways...don't play them....but own them.

That makes my heart hurt Nologic!

Is there a quick rename tool that could, say, compare your PC Games names in the DB and rename the shortcuts accordingly? Sounds easier than it is probably...

It's not quick but my fuzzy match tool has the ability to export a batch file which will rename files for you, you'll have to manually confirm the list of results though so depending how many games you have it could take a while, I've used it to rename my playstation, dreamcast and saturn rom sets so they match the databases

You can get the latest version in the last database beta topic, drop your list of shortcuts in the left pane and the mdb list in the right, turn off the category mode and hit go

Guys. Im unpinning this topic as it doesn't see much action. If anything changes Ill re-pin it.

[LB11]

I hope that means we were pretty thorough!

[Brian Hoffman]

I believe it does.

You guys really did an awesome job.
