Commodore 64 TOSEC Files/ROMs XML easy way to add genre xml?

Hello,

I have the full TOSEC Game (ROMs/files) for the commodore 64.

I generated my own XML in HLHQ but the xml doesn't show genre type.

I also downloaded from hyperlist the XML and Genre xml but a lot less game files.

Is there an easy way to 'merge' or add Genres to my full xml file I generated?

 

Tried using Don's Toolset/ merge and generate list, etc... but didn't have any luck :/

 

Any help is appreciated.

There's no easy way to do it that I know of if you don't create your list from one that already has the genre info filled in. Otherwise you have to fill it in yourself. Personally I don't know why you would want to generate from a full tosec set because of all the alternates in there and I dislike their naming convention.

Thanks for the reply,

Yeah, I don't care much for the TOSEC 100 different entries for the same game/variations of same game..but there are some games (missing or working) that aren't on other collections.

Thanks though, may go with the one on hyperlist and manually add/edit others.

Why not just use the official C64 HyperSpin database that wahoobrian created. It's already populated - took him ages!

And it contains what has to be the most complete list of games for the c64 as its referencing many different sets. It's THE curated c64 list.

As always with my posts these days - there's a PM waiting for you to check out ;)
