Nice one....

What's the story with 'Misc' though? Are these literally just blank images?

We've been trying to move away from including these... especially when emulators can simply create them themselves.

Those blank images were already there, only now recognised as such.

Duncan, one thing I want to say about blank images.  I remember one game, Mail Order Monsters, that had to have a save disk with a special title.  The game would not make this disk (if I remember correctly).  Are you verifying that the game can make a working character/data disk?

Good point, I'll put it on the list to check. Probably the same with 'Garfield' disks.

FYI... I left out the 'Misc' DAT for now. Let's revisit for next time.

I'm keen to get 'pointless' blank images out of TOSEC (i.e. synthetic ones generated by an emu of whatever), though obviously if a physical disk (which just happens to be blank) was included in a a boxed game then that's a bit different.

Starting work on the first release of 2013, which will only include fixes. Attached a list of roms found in multiple locations. For instance a game found in both 'games' and 'previews'. Final location should be determined, please post corrections in this topic.
Cheers,
Duncan.

Took me a while, but I got a large chunk of C64 tap files named and the dat file in my FTP folder for Duncan to check out.

Started working on a second batch of tap files that Duncan wanted.
