ShortName=hl2
LauncherDirKey=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Valve\Steam\InstallPath
LauncherExe=steam.exe
DetectExe=SteamApps\*\half-life 2\HL2.exe
CommandLineMustNotContain[0]="\sourcemods\planofattack"
CommandLineMustNotContain[1]="\sourcemods\hl2substance"
CommandLineMustNotContain[2]="\sourcemods\gmod"
CommandLineMustNotContain[3]="\sourcemods\dystopia"
CommandLineMustNotContain[4]="\sourcemods\hidden"
CommandLineMustNotContain[5]="\SourceMods\Goldeneye"
CommandLineMustNotContain[6]="\SourceMods\empires"
CommandLineMustNotContain[7]="\SourceMods\kzmod"

add this after it....

CommandLineMustNotContain[8]="\SourceMods\pvkii"

and then at the bottom of the file...

[1097]
LongName=Pirates Vikings and Knights 2
ShortName=pvkii
LauncherDirKey=HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Valve\Steam\InstallPath
LauncherExe=steam.exe
DetectExe=SteamApps\*\source sdk base\HL2.exe

LauncherPasswordArgs=+password %UA_GAME_HOST_PASSWORD%
LauncherNetworkArgs="%UA_LAUNCHER_PASSWORD_ARGS% +connect %UA_GAME_HOST_NAME%:%UA_GAME_HOST_PORT%"
Launch=%UA_LAUNCHER_EXE_PATH% -applaunch 215 -game "%UA_LAUNCHER_EXE_DIR%\steamapps\sourcemods\pvkii" %UA_LAUNCHER_EXTRA_ARGS% %UA_LAUNCHER_NETWORK_ARGS%
ServerStatusType=SOURCE
ServerGameName=Pirates, Vikings and Knights II
ServerBroadcastPort=27015:6,4242
ServerEncodingType=UTF8

so all they really have to do, is change the gameid to what they like, and then get the pvkii icon, and then an entry on however they record gametime, and I've done the detection part for them.
