Per our staff discussions and review of the redump site codes, request to remove the following codes from the "Extras" section of the 'Additional Info' tab for MPF Disc Information Window:

  • Genre
  • Postgap type (Form 2) checkbox
  • Series
  • V-CD checkbox

This aligns with the updated site codes wiki page here:
http://wiki.redump.org/index.php?title=Special_Site_Codes

Which now lists these 4 elements under the legacy or specialized codes section.

These elements were confusing for dumpers, especially new users, and are only used in legacy or very very specialized situations in redump, and thus should be removed from MPF. Thanks!
