Internal Serial
- Internal Serial for PS3 is taken exactly as contained in the PARAM.SFO file and will look something like "TITLE_ID: BLES00503" which would be: [T:ISN] BLES00503
- If you don't have PARAM.SFO file and the game was dumped with MPF, you can get this information from the bottom of the *_disc.txt file from logs.
Version
- Version numbers are entered for PS3 exactly as listed in PARAM.SFO or *_disc.txt file from logs.
- For example, if it says "VERSION: 01.01", then 01.01 is entered in redump for the version (not 1.01).
- If pulling the version yourself, make sure to pull the correct version which is under TITLE_ID.
Volume Label
- Many PS3 discs have a generic volume label such as "PS3VOLUME" and those are typically omitted from redump.
- However, if the Volume Label is unique / different from that, it can go in the comments - for example, [T:VOL] ACIII (Assassin's Creed III example).
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.
