How it works
After finding the best MobyGames link candidate for every game you will be presented this Detect MobyGames Links Preview dialog.
The left list (found matches)
• | Unlike any list in Metropolis Launcher this list may display more than one row for each data item (default are 2 rows). You can organize the cells using the column headers - just drag and drop the column headers how you would like to view the list. |
• | All data items in this list are games that had previously no link to a MobyGames release |
• | If a best match has been found, you'll have values in Moby Release, Moby Year, Moby Created, Developer, Publisher etc. |
• | The Apply checkbox should be checked/unchecked for each data item (tick it if you want to apply the linking to the MobyGames release mentioned in the Moby Release column) |
• | The Match Accuracy shows how well the MobyGames release name fitted the Gamename with a score from 0..100 |
• | If a Match Accuracy of 100 has been calculated, the Apply checkbox will automatically be checked (don't blindly ignore them though!) |
The right list (Moby Releases)
• | This list contains all MobyGames releases available for the platform |
• | If you click a data item in the left list and it has a best match, the right list will pre-select the appropriate MobyGames release |
• | If you want to link a MobyGames release from this list to one or more games in the left list, select the games in the left list (using SHIFT / CTRL) and doubleclick the MobyGames release in the right list. This overwrites the best match for these games. |
• | You can open the MobyGames website for the release by opening the context menu (right click) and choose the Open Moby Page menu item |
Finally, press and every game where the Apply checkbox is checked will be linked to its best match (or overwritten link).
