TDC documentation archive
This folder contains docs, walkthrus, solves, etc for games from the TDC. Cracks, cheats and trainers are located in a similar folder.
These typically come from scene releases and are often attached inside game zips.
The goal of TDC is to not include extraneous files which were not part of the original release, so that extra data ends up here.
Ideally, the file name of the zip would be identical to the game zip that it represents, with [genre] changed to [documentation] or whatever.
Version #s, [a1], (Installer) etc dropped from the filename since these files are not that specific, with the exception of trainers and cracks;
the version # if it exists, is left in since they may byte patch a game.
Language information is often useful and sometimes required as different languages of a game expect different words to be typed in at the doc check.
Documentation often comes in 3 formats:
Quick Docs - Just a summary of what keys do what.
Documentation - Typed up information from the manual. Often it is a summary.
Manual - A scanned and/or pdf formatted copy of the physical manual. Manuals also have pieces, such as maps, warranty cards, quick references guides, etc.
