Multiple Disc Images
« on: February 12, 2014, 04:59:17 pm »
I tried searching, but didn't find anything. Is there any way to add a second disc image for a release, or is that not a current option or the database?

I was just curious because I was going to add the images or Vitua Fighter 3tb [JP] and it comes with Project Berkley (Shenmue) as the second disc.

Currently there is no way to do this. What I have done in the past is to put both discs on my scanner and make one image of both discs.

Ya when I do multi disc games I scan all the discs and make one image file. Like I did with the .hack games

Thanks guys. I hadn't see those games. I will take a similar approach.

Hrm, what about games such as Alundra?  It had multiple disk artworks that you randomly got, the exact same data on the disk & nothing on the cover to distinguish one from the other.  Unless someone had went out of their way to collect them all - which would be truly impressive - there's no way one person could upload an image of all of them.

Granted, this is probably a super-rare case and I'm not even a stickler for having the disk art (I have to draw the line somewhere lest my OCD drives me insane ;) ) but just as devil's advocate wondering how that would be handled.

It would be listed as a variant. Like how we have Albert Odyssey listed

Ah, OK - makes sense.
