Downloads Reference Database

Answer

Question:By mistake I've deleted the reference base with the downloaded games. I have subsequently re-installed the Megabase. However, it won't update (with new games...) because I had already downloaded them before deleting the Megabase (Status "downloaded"). Can I somehow reset the status and download the data again?

Answer: Games can be downloaded more than once. Simply mark the games to be downloaded and then click on "Load selected entries".

The downloading of games can be carried out using the following steps:

1. After logging onto the Update-Server mark the game updates which you wish to download (clicking the left mouse key or shift key to make a multiple selection).

2. The next step is to click on the "Load Selected Entries" in the upper menu.

3. The program now collects all of the selected updates. Depending on the speed of the computer this can take a few minutes. Wait until this is completed before carrying out the next action.

4. Finally the dialogue box appears "Select database" where you can select whether the games should be attached to the reference database (in this case Mega2015) or whether the games should remain as individual databases. You can, if you wish, also call up another database by click on the three points and specifying this in the Windows-Selection box.

5. Click OK to start importing the games.

Important: Adding updates to a large database such as the Mega Database can, depending on the speed of your computer, take a long time to update due to the classification.

Tip: It is recommended to carry out both procedures - add the data to Mega as well as keeping a copy of the individual databases. The advantage of this is that you then have an overview of the database updates on your hard drive.
