Question on some Serie MAX releases and DAT filenames

Post by Lugamo »

In the wiki, there's this guideline:
For IBM PC, "Xplosiv" and "Sold Out Software" are added to version (datfile) for said editions, because these discs have modified (branded) autoruns and setups.

While this does not apply to most Serie MAX release, I've found this to be the case with some of them. All of the examples I could find are attached to this thread.

There was an original (likely big box) release of Fallout which came with this manual, which wouldn't have this Serie MAX launcher. There's also an undumped Serie Plus release of Virtual Pool 2 (available for sale sadly without the big box) which also wouldn't have this new launcher. And finally there are two versions of Bugs Bunny: Perdido en el tiempo (Bugs Bunny: Lost in Time), a regular edition, and a Serie MAX release, one of which likely has the custom launcher. The original local release of Actua Soccer 3 was originally published by Microbyte, too.

My question is, should those releases which have a new launcher have their DAT name changed?
