Version (datfile)

Standard

For rereleases, if there is another difference suitable to maintain filename separation (e.g. different languages between original and rerelease), no datfile version is required.

If there is no other difference and this would result in a duplicate filename, there are two potential scenarios:

• Same game, different edition, different version, no languages listed -- use the serial number as the datfile version
• Same game, different edition, different version, same languages listed -- use the version (e.g. v01.01) as the datfile version

Worked examples

http://redump.org/disc/67446/ and http://redump.org/disc/98611/, as they have no languages listed, would both end up with a datfile name of "Bioshock (Japan)", resulting in a duplicate filename.

In this case, as neither has any languages listed, we follow the logic in the first bullet point above and these become "Bioshock (Japan) (BLJS-10041)" and "Bioshock (Japan) (BLJS-10189)" respectively.

http://redump.org/disc/8998/ and http://redump.org/disc/52546/ have a similar problem, although in this case both have the same languages listed so we differentiate here by version, giving us "inFamous (USA) (En,Fr,Es) (v01.00)" and "inFamous (USA) (En,Fr,Es) (v02.00)" respectively.
