I'll get these message upon adding and starting Art of Murder - FBI Confidential
The game in 'Games:GamesVM/Wintermute/FBI Confidential/game.url' seems to be unknown. Please, report the following data to the ScummVM team along with name of the game you tried to add and its version/language/etc.: {"data.dcp", 0, "7e4c1dc8b1fb08541f7784d6288acfc8", 633692059},
User picked target 'wmefan-Art_of_Murder-win' (gameid 'wintermute')... Looking for a plugin supporting this gameid... Wintermute Starting 'Wintermute engine game' The game in 'Games:GamesVM/Wintermute/FBI Confidential/game.url' seems to be unknown.

The game has also a pretty wrong looking name entry, it gets detected as

I don't know where that /aom0817/ comes from

I've made a small patch for this. If the translation tags are like that in all localized entries, it should work with all localized games:

Thanks Filipos (again) :-)
I will try as soon as i get the chance.
But: I checked at the WME games page ( http://res.dead-code.org/doku.php/games:start ) and Art of Murder is said to be 2.5D and may also be out of scope of ScummVM.
If it is, once again, sorry for the item and the extra work.
I should really have checked before i put all those items up

Fixed in commit a1dea147bba16006b1fb45f9ae22b7d7a008d99e, after talking with somaen. The translation tags are now removed from entries taken from the fallback detector.
This game is out of ScummVM's scope, as it's a 2.5D game. Thus, I'm closing this as fixed

Reopening since we are now adding 2.5D to detection table.

/aom0817/ is a translation tag, since the game detects through the fallback detection scheme (thus the "(fangame)"), it grabs the Caption-field from the startup-settings for the game, and uses that as a game title. A localized game will have tags like that in it's strings to allow for replacing the strings with the localized equivalents, but the fallback detector does not have any logic in place to care about such things. (nor is it a priority to add any such logic, as the fallback detector is meant to be just that, a fallback).
