rating label in xml

[Peliculon]

Hi, the labels calls <rating> in the officials xml for HyperSpin what use have? For example this two:

    <game name="1on1gov" index="true" image="1">
        <description>1 on 1 Government (Japan)</description>
        <cloneof></cloneof>
        <crc></crc>
        <manufacturer>Tecmo</manufacturer>
        <year>2000</year>
        <genre>Sports / Basketball</genre>
        <rating>AAMA - Green (Suitable For All Ages)</rating>
        <enabled>Yes</enabled>
    </game>

 

    <game name="openice" index="true" image="2">
        <description>2 On 2 Open Ice Challenge (rev 1.21)</description>
        <cloneof></cloneof>
        <crc></crc>
        <manufacturer>Midway</manufacturer>
        <year>1995</year>
        <genre>Sports / Hockey</genre>
        <rating>AAMA - Yellow (Animated Violence Mild)</rating>
        <enabled>Yes</enabled>
    </game>

 

There appears AAMA - Green (Suitable For All Ages) and AAMA - Yellow (Animated Violence Mild). Im suppose that this works for something, but i didnt saw nothing appearing in the screen when i use HyperSpin (because im supposing that this rating labels are for showing some picture in the screen but i dont see nothing about it).

 

So, if there is something for activate this in HyperSpin and show in the screen... how i do that?

I think these are used for your launcher splash/loading/intro screen?

Personally I have changed all my ratings with a find and replace via notepad++ to match my own region. 

    <game name="1on1gov" index="true" image="1">
        <description>1 on 1 Government (Japan)</description>
        <cloneof></cloneof>
        <crc></crc>
        <manufacturer>Tecmo</manufacturer>
        <year>2000</year>
        <genre>Sports / Basketball</genre>
        <rating>AU - General</rating>
        <enabled>Yes</enabled>
    </game>

Then as I use Rocketlauncher in the RocketLauncher/Media/Ratings/_Default folder I have these images. (Default usually has more but not these for my AU Region.)

Note: The images names must match the rating you are using for the region you are using. These are Case Sensitive also I do believe.

 

So when I load a game via Hyperspin, Rocketlauncher as the launcher matches the rating in the database to the image files above and I get this embedded in my Intro Screen.

Note: My Intro screen has been customized to match a Universal theme I setup. So you may still need to set this up for yourself, but there are a few variations out there and you can customize it at a system or even game level I believe.

 

The below is my default settings for Rocketlaucher Fades if it helps also.
You can see Show Rating As "Image" is selected, Pretty sure you can just show it has text also.

 

Cheers,

I use Sublime Text 2 for editing xml.

Humm well, I think that i'll put the <rating> labels in to the xml, but for me doesn't works because when I activate Fades my HyperSpin comes crazy so I have them disable. But yeah, i did what you said and works. Thank you anyways! =)
