What Database am I using?

Post by noctambulist »

This may have been answered somewhere else, but I couldn't find it so forgive me for repeating questions.

Is there any way to tell what database I'm using? I honestly can't remember which version of Unfaking I have installed and in reading over the Challenge rules it dawned on me that I should know this.

If all else fails, I believe there is a link to the proper DB in one of the announce threads.

I could just reinstall Unfake V1, I guess and run multiple databases. But it would be nice to know if I have to or not.

Do you have the editor? You could open it up and see what deals have been done I guess. I don't know if there's any way to tell what DB you're running before you start the game.

Try comparing file sizes with the various databases that should work

Hmmm... :-k There isn't actually anything in-game specific but come to think of it maybe when you install a different database project you should drop a new folder or file into the database folder and rename it to "Unfake v1" or "Smetana Rosters" or something so "down the road" you can have the answer for that question 8-)

That's a good idea. I'll do that next time. That would be a nice feature in the next EHM, to just have a thing in the Game Options menu that lists what database you are running.
