Game Gallery: US versions of Rayman 2 and F355 Challenge: Passione Rossa mistaken for Japanese versions

[JimCarlTay]

Platform / OS: Dreamcast / Windows 10

Github hash: https://github.com/flyinghead/flycast/commit/ca613db (June 11 master build)

Hardware: 12th Gen Intel Core i5-12400 (CPU), Intel UHD Graphics 730 (GPU)

Description of the Issue

When adding the US BIN/CUE sets of the two above-mentioned games to the designated Dreamcast content location, they end up receiving cover art and names of the games' Japanese versions instead of the US versions upon opening the emulator.

UPDATE: A similar problem happened with NBA 2K (BIN/CUE set "NBA 2K (USA)"), but since the game name is the same for all regions, it only concerns the cover art used, which is the Japanese one instead of the US one.

Debugging Steps Tested

• Unpack/extract the ZIP files containing the BIN/CUE sets for the two games ("Rayman 2 - The Great Escape (USA)" & "F355 Challenge - Passione Rossa (USA)") in the Dreamcast content location
• Open Flycast
• Flycast ends up using the Japanese versions' game names and cover art instead of the correct versions' (USA) game names and cover art

Flycast uses disk identifiers (UID) to fetch covers, and only uses the game name if the disk id isn't found. Unfortunately F355 and Rayman 2 use non-standard disk ids, which are not referenced on https://thegamesdb.net. I need to contact them to have them added for these 2 games and a few others.

The NBA 2K issue was also a TGDB issue: the US edition had the JP cover and the PAL edition had the US cover. It is now fixed: https://thegamesdb.net/search.php?name=NBA+2K&platform_id[]=16

UIDs for F355 Challenge and Rayman 2 have been fixed.
