Under recent naming conventions, are these titles "Toh Shin Den"?

It's a standardization thing as far as I am aware.

I do not know this.
The database has several disc numbers in Roman numerals and alphabets.

I think this is plextor bug.

The error does not occur in 755 and 4012, is it a bug only in 760?

@sarami
Please see this topic. http://forum.redump.org/topic/38579/
The error occurs only on the PX-760A. Do you know why?

added PX-W4012A logs to the first post.

Heroes of Might and Magic IV issue was not solved.
The new PX-760A outputs the same result.
Edited the first post.

The dumping by PX-755A matched BW-16D1HT.
It appears that the PX-760A has been broken.

Have you tried dumping at a low speed on the Plextor? (4x-16x, varies)
Could also be the CD laser going bad on it, 7xx drives are known for that.

It's probably a lifetime. I don't want to use an unstable drive, so I'll use a different drive.
Thanks for the advice.

This looks like a Europe region, but TotSC only runs in the Canada/US. (Others are region free)

What is the region?

Because it is your duty as a mod to verify all the fields before accepting, any mistake is your mistake smile

It is an ideal, not a realistic. First, the rules do not exists.

No one ever used "Bundled with Magazine" in PC or MAC datfiles (in the recent history, at least). And fuzzball itself submitted all the Maclife/MacPeople/MacUser discs with the Covermount tag.

Yes, I referred to the submissions of other monthly magazines.

I think "Covermount" is a mod's (Lizard) mistake.

"Covermount" seems to have a long history.

These are "Covermount" from 2009.
http://redump.org/disc/9594/changes/
http://redump.org/disc/10120/changes/

These were changed from "Bundled with Magazne" to "Covermount" in May 2018.

Reprint is a very special case when the game was printed again with the same serials and covers but with different contents and the releases are somehow distinguishable.

So, most "Reprint" is wrong, right?

Have the rules for EXE date changed?
It needs to be announced.

Where did you find reprint? It seems to be worded rather strangely for this site.

It would probably cause too much work for you and the responsible moderator, to write a fix request for everything that is unfitting.

I just don't want to get lost myself, but unifying the wording would be better.

Q2.
What is the difference between "Reprint" and "Rerelease"?
Is there a distinction between them?

I withdraw this proposal.

AFAIK, anything related to FM Towns CDs is allowed.

Thanks, I'll keep this exceptional (and strange) rule in mind.

All the others are either games or stuff related to Dreamcast (this PC disc is a devkit for Dreamcast) and FM Towns, which is allowed.

Does this mean that all FM Towns applications will be allowed?

Thank you for the information.
I read these, but why are there a few Microsoft Windows and many FM Towns applications registered?
