Dreamcast GDI Compatibility List

[dragoncity]

Millenium Racer - Y2K Fighters v1.000 (2001)(Creat Studios)(Region Free)(devkit)
It's already an OPT GDI.

I tested in SSD,works perfectly and with music !

Config : Without DMA and CDDA

[Gillbert]

I've just tested it and does work fine from both SD Card and HDD (DMA disabled), and with music, just have to enable CDDA emulation.

Note: Do not optimize the GDI files.

[dragoncity]

Gillbert,the release by JC "Japanese_Cake",it's with ISO files

track01.iso etc..

And when you launch with iso_loader,it's already "true dma" activated.

So OPT GDI.

So I just disabled DMA and Add CDDA

I'm aware about that, I just wrote a note for users who maybe aren't.

[dragoncity]

Ok no worries

The dreamcast community just amazing!

[fafadou]

did you have try the mlt games with the last version of DS file ?

I have an error of junk disc with sturmwind ?!? and all the others mlt games don't boot with mine sd card reader...

With the last release of beats of rage, I had to repack the .cdi for playing it with dramshell maybe the last release works with your isoloader ?

Maybe I should try with an older version version of iso loader but I want to know if you have the same problem

i'm repacking deep fighter .cdi and it works with my set now, no cdda for now but it works :-) i share it soon.

[dragoncity]

Hellooo :-)

Do you think if I overclock the dreamcast : 200mhz to 240mhz, the games with dreamshell will works better? Like Resident Evil 2 during kinematic or others ?


Thank you

I'm curious about that too but I think that it has more to do with loader itself (software part).
Anyway, SWAT and Megavolt are the guys to clarify that subject.

You have to make a SDISO from CDI image using this method. Then use 0x8cf80000 memory setting on Dreamshell.

[dragoncity]

Yes I wait Swat and Megavolt :-)

[SWAT]

I think overclock can help improve framerate, but in some games maybe glithes.

[fafadou]

It may be a good try to overclock the SH4. familyguy from assembler games forum has done a good mod for this but I suppose it's not available from now.

I've found ! sturmwind and others mlt run with RC3 version ^^

[dragoncity]

I saw "revert to old loaders" >> https://github.com/DC-SWAT/DreamShell/co...ster/build

Can you explain "Megavolt" ..?

[megavolt85]

loaders from github don't work.
now on github loaders from site archive

[dragoncity]

Yes since a long time I said on github doesn't work ^^

I use your DS it's perfect

What's your (and swat) new project? Compatibility or something else?

I will be ready to test a future version

[megavolt85]

now work with G1 driver, rewrite ATA and GD-ROM part, add ATAPI support (CD/DVD drive)
with new driver DS can work with two HDD alredy

That's really a great news!

One thing I would like to see on bootloader bios would be the ability to use the G1-ATA mod in master instead of slave only. Maybe an way to bypass that condition on GD-ROM bus and give an option to force G1-ATA to operate in master mode, even if we lost the ability to read from GD-ROM.

That would be very useful when using some IDE-to-SD Card devices (or any other devices) which operate in master mode only, like this one.

[megavolt85]

only if this device can work in LBA mode, old CHS don't supported

small test new driver

Код:

MASTER LBA48 ATA drive 117219767 Kb - WDC WD1200JB-00GVC0
SLAVE LBA48 ATA drive 78149687 Kb - ST380011A
MASTER device part0 FAT32X - 117219736 Kb
SLAVE device part0 FAT32X - 78148161 Kb

[Gillbert]

Oh, that's nice then! Yes, the device I'm talking about can operate in LBA mode (it's a Sintech chipset)

[fafadou]

Ah ok it's a fantastic new :-)

So I have to replace the four files by the new ones ? Or there is a new release of the DS folder somewhere ?

Thanks for your amazing work, waiting impatiently for new release.
