I used your CFG repo for my own game library and since I fixed some missing entries, I figure I would share back.


The cfg were modified using OPL Manager V24.

Descriptions were mostly sourced from IMDB, and which I sometime edited to fit under the 255 characters limit.

Release dates were sourced from wikipedia and should match the region of the specific ISO (i.e. a PAL version of the game will show the EU release date). It looks like the rest of the CFG files use the mm-dd-yyyy time format, so this is what I kept using.

Game genre, rating and developer were also sourced from wikipedia. Genres don't seem to follow a rigid nomenclature, so I tried to use the one from OPL Manager as much as possible. I noticed another PR aiming to standardize RPG to "Role Playing Games", so I also used that label.

OPL compatibility mode were sourced from the PS2-Home compatibility list. I only applied the recommended modes that are common to all media sources, this way people can choose the mode relevant to their own setup (SMB, USB, internal hdd, etc).

Parental rating was sourced using pegi's official website for europe ISOs, esrb for american ISOs. In a few edge cases, I used the info available on covers scans (e.g. Front Mission 5 uses the japanese rating system).

Some titles were changed using the OPL Manager database. For example, OPL Manager fixed "Jak and Daxter The L" to "Jak and Daxter: The Lost Frontier".


I tested the changes with OPL v1.2.0-Beta-2201-4b6cc2, using both the default theme and a custom theme.
