If you can't do the languages or metadata, yes I think you've done everything you can. Will add them later today, will post here if there's any problems.

Go to main ps2 menu by starting with no disc in. In settings somewhere change language. Load disc until language presence has been determined. Eject disc. Reset to go back to ps2 menu. Repeat for every language.

Added the verifications, will leave snowboard racer 2 for now. For Myth Makers Super Kart GP, Can you double check the end of your ringcode please? You've said 108 but it looks like a typo.

Can you check the languages via the bios, especially for:

  • Minority report (already has a comment regarding languages)

  • Snowboard Racer 2 (new disc)

  • Games which currently only have english as a language, as the languages may not have been checked properly

And by the way what doest it mean "seems like the original"? He should clearly state whether he was able to produce 2 matching dumps or not and list those hash values.

The 'original' comment was regarding edition, he has dumped it twice.

This part of the ringcode doesnt care. As long as the major part matches, the disc is the same.

What you mean by this? Can you confirm the hashes already in the DB? If so, please edit your first post.

He thinks his disc is original, the dump he is trying to verify (tosseac's disc) is midas pocket edition. The hashes are different and not in db so it's a new dump.

Please don't! I'm quite sure he didn't checked the language using every possible Bios setting.

I'm saying keep the multi4 as is, as koffein's multi4 is more likely to be correct. You seem to be agreeing with me with the latter half of your comment.

Note 2: Could only find the english language on Marvel Nemesis: Rise of the Imperfects instead of four

Possibly subtitles or something else. I'll leave the languages as is unless you're 100% sure.

Note 3: DreamWorks Madagascar differ 1 day in exe date with platinum version in DB

Have you set the isobuster settings correctly? Go here (options->file system settings->general->timestamps) and set both to local.

Note 4: Minority Report: Everybody Runs does not seem to have a Mould SID Code

Not everything has a mould sid.

Added. If you could get the full ringcode (mastering code, master sid, mould sid, toolstamp) from now on that would be good, especially for dumps missing a full ringcode. To learn which bit is which, find a ps2 disc you own with a full ringcode in the database, and match it up. Sometimes elements like toolstamp and mould sid are not present.

We need the internal version for every game (found at the end of param.sfo). Also is the mould sid definitely IFPI O### and not IFPI Q###?

If possible can you check the languages, and also if possible can you dump the metadata.

GOTY edition is hard to categorise as it could mean many things, in my limited experience it means little more than a re-release with the latest patch, which is what I meant by it. When something gets re-released as game +  major expansion pack/major dlc combo on the same disc , then I think it should be in its own group (ie up to 3 groups: standalone game, expansion pack, combo). Some things will be borderline, it'll have to be discussed on a case by case basis.

It's all subject to opinion, and some of it will be hard to sort out (particularly pc, consoles play much nicer normally). Basically I think the golden rule should be if a disc could go into multiple groups, put it in a new group. If we follow it we wont go far wrong.

My ideal:

  • Follow a region order but make the generic name as generic as possible (Resident Evil > Biohazard, no additional tags like region)

  • Group re-releases of the same game (goty, dual shock etc), keep expansions (dynasty warriors xtreme legends, empires) separate and collections (deus ex complete) separate. At first glance it might seem like a good idea to group some of these situations, but it forms too many complications and introduces as many negatives as positives

  • Have the backend a number id, no parent as such (the dat creation code handles the release to grab the generic name from). clone-clone-clone... seems easier to implement + edit than parent-clone-clone... and more flexible

The dat could store an id instead of a generic name. This makes post-processing with a datter mandatory for many situations so is not ideal, but a clone dat of any sort is good.

The disc keys can definitely be added because you've verified them by matching hashes. The other 2 are almost certainly fine too (they are dumped at same time as the disc key and i haven't seen a disc key reused), I'll add them despite not being dumped firsthand and the pic 0x73 instead of 0x84 (better than nothing, it's very unlikely they're wrong and a verify can change them if necessary).

If it's been rated by the ACB, doesn't that mean it's been sold officially in australia?

http://www.1up.com/previews/colosseum

And if this "preview" build is anything like the preview discs Koei typically shoots over to our offices, then we can basically assume that Colosseum, set for release in July, is essentially finished on the development end of things.

If it's the same preview, it sounds like a beta to me.

Ok. Thought it might have been taken from the spine, where the end of the barcode is often below the serial.

What's the serial printed on the disc? Also, can you provide a more complete ringcode and check the languages if possible?

Added all, 2 pending enquiries.

http://redump.org/disc/6117/ : Is the serial on the disc label without #?
http://redump.org/disc/26925/ : Is the barcode definitely correct? Google yields no results, I know this may be because it's a local release.
