Color and Icon Key

💡 TIP:
RomVault 3.5 and above (and some WIP builds) supports custom graphics packs. Custom graphics should be placed in ZIP archive named graphics.zip or in a folder called graphics in the RomVault directory. Refer to the Graphics Packs section for more details.

Anyone is free to create their own graphics and share with the community. For example, the graphics pack below was created to assist color blind users by changing the ROM statuses to use unique iconography for better differentiation.

Accessible graphics pack: graphics.zip

ⓘ NOTE:
RomVault's MIA ROM status is based on the presence of the mia="yes" tags in the DATs. Most No-Intro DATs include this tag for MIA ROMs. All DATs provided by DatVault support this special tag for MIA tracking.

The MIA tags in DatVault DATs are submitted by the community and removed automatically when MIA ROMs are found and scanned using RomVault. The community-driven approach ensures DatVault DATs contain the most up-to-date information about MIA ROMs right in the RomVault UI, so there is no need to refer to external wikis for MIA information. Refer to the MIA ROM Tracking section for more details.
