Tosec Naming

When I checked the names in the TOSEC and I saw Chaos Engine, The and Chaos Engine 2, The . It seems they are wrong . Because true names are The Chaos Engine , The Chaos Engine 2 . why they are wrong ?

Because of the sorting. Otherwise a lot of games would be listed under 'T'.

Have a look here : http://www.tosecdev.org/index.php/to...ing-convention

It's quite common when, as has been pointed out, sorting filenames that are based on games' names. Get used to it

This is the only Tossec naming thread I could find.
There are a few games I want to upload -
are there any flags for Extended Adfs?
one of them will also be a cyclone copy any flags?
and may have been tampered with ie Startup-sequence edited? and flags?

Boo Boo; there's a whole section "project.TOSEC (amiga only)" on EAB: http://eab.abime.net/forumdisplay.php?f=33

As for naming conventions; see here: http://www.tosecdev.org/tosec-naming-convention

From looking through "Commodore Amiga - Games - [ADF] (TOSEC-v2015-12-28_CM).dat" in Notepad, here are some examples:

... A.M.C. - Astro Marine Corps (1990)(Dinamic)(Disk 1 of 2)[extended adf].adf
... A.M.C. - Astro Marine Corps (1990)(Dinamic)(Disk 2 of 2)[extended adf].adf
... Beyond Dark Castle (1989)(Activision)(Disk 1 of 2)[extended adf]
... Beyond Dark Castle (1989)(Activision)(Disk 2 of 2)[extended adf]
... Deep Space v1.00a (1986)(Psygnosis)[extended adf].adf
... Great Courts (1989)(Ubi Soft)[extended adf].adf
