Undumped Wiki / Sexual Trivia - Kinky Kit and Game Co.

« on: 15 April 2009, 10:39 »

Anyone got an idea of why this game is listed? It's dumped and in Mame. Some particular version undumped? Any evidence? Otherwise I'm leaning on removing it.

Just saw Incog created categories for bad dumps and partial dumps. Are they useful or even needed with S_bastian implementation in place?

Undumped Wiki / Developer names

« on: 14 April 2009, 10:31 »

Browsing the Mame source and the undumped list, I encountered many differences between developers' names in Mame and in our list.
One example is 8ing/Eighting, which is called 8ing in our list and Eighting in Mame source. Should we trust Mame and change our list?

Undumped Wiki / Re: Different revisions/regions of already dumped games

I would edit the already existing page to show the undumped title and note in the page text that Rev A is already dumped.

Undumped Wiki / Re: World Rally Championship

Well, according to http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6OQntOMmDLs&feature=relatedthis video the dumped roms do display World Rally Championship as title in Mame, so I think it can be safely removed.

As you posted in the pinned thread, I'm in favour of removing them, since they will appear in the "bad dump/no dump" list.

Yeah, I think it would be better to list them in a subpage, otherwise cps2 games with dozens of regions/versions would clog up the entire undumped list.

Undumped Wiki / Re: Partially dumped games

Ok, if noone objects I will remove any entry of partially dumped game I find.

I think the format you propose would work fine.
Laserdisc, floppy disk and whatever should be listed.
Samples aren't worth the work to me, but I've been always against them, so I'm not the best person to ask.

Undumped Wiki / Pro Bowling (Data East)

« on: 09 April 2009, 10:07 »

The Pro Bowling entry seems iffy to me. The Deco Cassette version is dumped and in MAME and a quick google search coudn't find any evidence of a dedicated hw version ever exisiting.
I seem to remember there was an excellent source of Data East information called D.E.E.P or something similar, but I can't find it anymore.
If anyone can confirm the existance of a dedicated hw version, please post some infos. Otherwise I'm gonna remove it.

EDIT: Terranean e Zeroize too, please.

Undumped Wiki / Different revisions/regions of already dumped games

« on: 09 April 2009, 09:58 »

In the undumped list, some entries refer to different revisions/regions of already dumped games (for example, the World region of Fighting Fantasy from Data East).
I think we should agree on one standard.
a) we list every known undumped revision/region of every dumped game
b) we don't list known known undumped revisions/regions of dumped games
c) we list only significant known undumped revisions/regions of dumped games, with the lister explaining in the game page why that revision/region has particular significance (for example, different gameply, different graphics, adaptations...)

Undumped Wiki / Partially dumped games

« on: 09 April 2009, 09:53 »

In the undumped list, some entries refer to partially dumped games (for example, Explorer from Data East).
I think we should agree on one standard.
a) We include all games which are only partially dumped
b) We exclude them and create an autogenerated list from Mame
I vote for b.
Opinions?

Undumped Wiki / What happens when an undumped game gets dumped?

« on: 09 April 2009, 09:39 »

The front page states:

When a consensus is reached that a game is already dumped or in MAME, please do not delete the page, change category:undumped to category:dumped and remove the listing from the main list

This is easy to understand.
But what happens when a game on the undumped list gets dumped and a page for it doesn't exist yet?
Yesterday, while I was deleting some games already in Mame, I always created the page and set it as "category: dumped". Other more prominent users as Haze and Incog simply delete the entry from the undumped list.
What is the official way? Is it worth it to clarify it on the front page?
Thanks
