Dreamcast GDI Compatibility List

[DCF]

Great job dragoncity! Thank you very much for this list, you put a lot of effort into it.

Could you make copy of your list with english notes?

[dragoncity]

Thank you.

Erf I try "=GOOGLETRANSLATE(J3; » fr « ; » en « )" but...ERROR !!

So maybe..when I have time

Next Step,test the games don't work.

For that I will use an Dreamcast US (Region Changer PAL >> US + NTSC)
and an Original Dreamcast JAP.

So I have 3 dreamcast > PAL US and JAP.

And I want to see if the games who can't launch with PAL,maybe launch with an Dreamcast US or JAP!

Hmm to the best of my memory the Chuchu Rocket works for me, but maybe PAL version...
Also the Floigan Brothers I remember works in RC3 (in RC4 not test).

It's why I would like to test in other region of dreamcast.

Have you a Pal,Us or Jap Dreamcast Swat?

All my test it's with Rc4 and Pal version.

For chuchu rocket only us version can be launch with cdda but after 2-3minutes of game ...Freeze...

[dragoncity]

Can you tell me if you have an Dreamcast US (or other),if these games works :

- Aerowings 2 (black screen after name choice)
- Chuchu Rocket (freeze after 2-3 minutes of game)
- Deadly Skies (son cdda it's horrible !!)
- F1 World Grand Prix II (freeze after 15seconds of game)
- Floigan Brothers (black screen)
- Fur Fighters (black screen)
- KAO the Kangaroo (freeze directly in the game)
- Looney Tunes Space Race (black screen)
- Metropolis Street Racer (blackscreen after video)
- Nba 2K (freeze after video)
- Re-Volt (the race will not start)
- Stupid Invaders (freeze directly in the game)

So if you have a solution for these games,tell me

And for these games,bugs or others :

- Alone In The Dark The New Nightmare (lag during kinematic)
- Hydro Thunder (music lag during the game)
- MDK2 (music bug a little during the game)
- Resident Evil 2 (very important lag during kinematic)

Less expensive..maybe it works ^^

Surely will work, I already bought several adapters like those. Just make sure to use an IDE cable with less than 20 cm length. Also, the ground lines are very important in order to have a good stability.

I *THINK* this game worked for me (PAL version GDI OPT), I will retest it tonight and report you back.

- Looney Tunes Space Race (black screen)
I don't remember anymore, I think it worked in ISO version, I'll retest it.

- Metropolis Street Racer (blackscreen after video)
Not work, same problem you had.

- Re-Volt (the race will not start)
Not work, same problem you had.

Yes, this cinematic lag is normal, but the in-game plays well.

- Hydro Thunder (music lag during the game)
Yes, same here. I used to play this game with CDDA disabled.

- Resident Evil 2 (very important lag during kinematic)
Yes, same here.

[megavolt85]

- Metropolis Street Racer (blackscreen after video)

it's for all, problem in loader

[dragoncity]

Add in my list :

Ultimate Fighting Championship >> OPT + SYNC 2

If not freeze after UFC mode

I would like to know if it works or not Thank you!

Tested it and doesn't work in ISO form, but it works in CDI with RC3 via HDD and SD, not on RC4. With RC4 it freezes after the Warner logo.

[dragoncity]

The same for me..why works in rc3 and not rc4...possible to fix it?

[Gillbert]

By the way, I tested the PAL version of Looney Tunes.

There are other few games which work on RC3 but not on RC4, Pinball Trilogy is one example.
And, there are some games which work in CDI format but not in GDI... I don't remember a example now.
Also... I know at least one game which only works in ISO format, but not in GDI nor CDI: San Francisco 2049.

[dragoncity]

So 2 games works in RC3

KAO the Kangaroo (without cdda..)
Looney Tunes Space Race

I updated my list

For test it's crazy I boot the cdi rc3..and after it read my ds folder...

[gorgyrip]

You can add to the list another working game from the hdd: Twinkle Star Sprites v1.002 (2000)(SNK)(NTSC)(JP)(M3)[!]

According to the list, the following games should work, but they don't work for me (all are in gdi format):
Ikaruga v1.002 (2002)(ESP)(NTSC)(JP)[!]
Radirgy v1.002 (2005)(Milestone)(NTSC)(JP)[!]
Trizeal v1.000 (2005)(Triangle Service)(NTSC)(JP)(en)[!]
Street Fighter Alpha 3 v1.001 (2000)(Capcom)(NTSC)(US)[!]
Rayman 2 - The Great Escape v1.003 (2000)(Ubi Soft)(NTSC)(US)(M5)[!]
Alone in the Dark - The New Nightmare v1.000 (2001)(Infogrames)(PAL)(Disc 1 of 2)[!] - when I select a character I get black screen, also audio is choppy.
How can I fix those?

Try disable DMA.

I tried that, but it doesn't work.

[SWAT]

Used 0x8cf80000 memory?

[gorgyrip]

(20.11.2016 07:06)SWAT писал(а):  Used 0x8cf80000 memory?

Yes. I've used that. There a many games that should work, but they don't work for me.

[dragoncity]

@Gorgyrip

Alone In The Dark The New Nightmare : 0x8cfe8000 (Without DMA !)
Ikaruga : ONLY in GDI OPTIMIZED
Street Fighter Alpha 3 : GDI or GDI OPT,no problem
Rayman 2 - The Great Escape : 0x8cfe8000

For me I use Dreamshell RC4,but not the last "build",if not all my games..problem.
So I update iso_loader manually.

Look my config:

Error in compatibility list. Need use 0x8cfe8000

[gorgyrip]

Thank you, guys. Alone in the Dark now works with the correct offset. Ikaruga optimized it's working too.

Now I'm having problems with the CDDA for these games:
Mortal Kombat Gold v1.006 (1999)(Midway)(PAL)[!]
PenPen TriIcelon v1.020 (1999)(Infogrames)(NTSC)(US)[!]
Star Wars - Demolition v1.001 (2000)(Lucas Arts)(NTSC)(US)[!]
Vanishing Point v1.002 (2001)(Acclaim)(PAL)(M5)[!]

Is it because I'm using the no_gdrom bios? Or should I use an older version of Dreamshell?
