Talk:Auto detection
Joachim Eberhard would like to point out the following:
Since I have a lot of different versions of games, especially starting from Monkey Island, I would like to point out that the game descriptions are already much too simple to tell the various versions in the launcher apart.
By reducing game descriptions again, this would become even more disturbing.
Actually, I'd hoped that ScummVM would use the extra details already known for games internally to display them to the user.
Also, we sorted the md5 list to rougly match the order ScummVM uses to sort the games. That is, by spoken language name (Dutch, English, French, German...), not by alphabetical order of the short abbreviations (de, en, es, fr....).
While I could understand the shortening of the language description, I personally don't like the idea of leaving out information, just because we decide that one particular version is the most common one.
