The database hasn't been updated yet. They're working on it. They're taking a long time because the process to adding the games is manual, and they have a lot of requests at the moment. It
*has* been approved however.
You can manually add it for now if you want, by going to C:\Users\<username>\AppData\Local\Echobit\Evolve, and editing gamesdb.xml, and adding this code after the last game entry:
Code: Select all
<game>
<id>4222</id>
<name>Zandronum</name>
<conditions>
<cond name="is-zan-exe-present" type="exe-present" exe="zandronum.exe"/>
<cond name="has-zan-pk3" type="file-present" file="{exedir}\zandronum.pk3"/>
</conditions>
<detection>
<variant order="1" name="default">
<if cond="is-zan-exe-present"/>
<if cond="has-zan-pk3"/>
</variant>
</detection>
</game>

Well I didn't really try it but I know Evolve's use because it installs itself when you update AMD drivers with a tiny checkbox that is very easy to miss :_.
Evolve has only two things for a game anyway :
A) Tracks hours played..
B) Some optimization things which never even came close to be the best quality\performance configuration.
Tbh I'd rather keep evolve off. Unless you want to get points and use them for a 1\10000 chance to get free games its just a gigantic waste of cpu.
What? You're not really making much sense. Also, the overlay and game tracking are two separate things. Free games for time played? Nothing has ever been mentioned about this in my use of the program. Also, what is this optimization thing? Are we even thinking of the same program? I'm thinking ATI must be distributing something with a similar name. Evolve doesn't even much much CPU either. Sounds like you're describing
Raptr, not Evolve.
Two things for a game? How about matchmaking for any game, LAN tunneling, Twitch/Hitbox broadcasting, FPS Meter, and a whole slew of other things?

Pff.. come to find out that in order for the overlay to work, you must have Windows Vista or newer.. Ohwell, XP is officially ded, but until I can get myself a new pc, I'm pretty much fucked. :/
Install Windows 7 32-bit, and turn off the visual bells and whistles and disable all but the necessary services. You'll get an OS that'll run about the same as XP, possibly better.
