Entry names?
Gents, I just noticed that there's a huge mess of files from Micropose soccer versions.
Some of them are called simply 'Micropose soccer'
some ...outdoor, some ...indoor, some 5-a-side some 6-a-side. and actually there are various versoins
I was planning to rename them all to 'Microprose Soccer - XXX' xxx=being the version of the game.
That way hoping to get a bit of clarity in here.
Can i go through all of them without people moaning that i renamed the entries, or are there any objections upfront?

Just remember to put the original name of the release in the aka field then else we'll still get duplicates. |

Thanks for the tip Zyron, i think that should be manditory when changing files from now on actually and advice i'll certainly stick to!
Other then that, if i look at the remember edition i finally realised there only was 1 version, containing both the euro and american (6-a-side) version.
If I look at the Afl version TPM even has a note there mentioning he fucked up the side-b (6-a-side) in doing their version. Other have both versions but as a loose file, so there's no telling if the original crack was 1 or 2 files after it being copied alongst the line. :(
So i'll just let this one be for the moment, to much of a hassle and still got enough disks to look through as it is. |

I actualled used that tip on International Basketball today Zyron. There were several entries added as 'basketball' so i changed them all to international basketball (mason researched the title and we came to talk about it) but put basketball in the aka field, is that how you meant? |

Yeah, sort of. One should always use the aka field when there's a difference between the filename & the "real name", may it be the full name of a game or a complete demo name given in the intro. The complete/correct name should be put as title & the often truncated filename (16 chars limit) as aka. |
