Yes I do. None of the Visual Concepts games will boot with it.

one thing i forgot say is aero wings 2 works if you play in hard mode if you select normal results in black screen but. lol is strange but some way game works

[fafadou]

Oh this one is very strange... The resident evil code veronica issue with the tiger enigma is still present with all 0.7 loader.
I try to find a save for sharing.

Strange, with SATA mod I could perfectly play LOONEY TUNES SPACE RACER (without CDDA), and now with IDE mod, the game freezes on the MPEGsofdec logo. Using loader (8, 9, 10) of Dragoncity pack.

So actually there is different issue with stuff, I guess each piece of equipment has its advantages and shortcomings compared to the others.
I'm still thinking, a good things is to have the choice between master and slave mode, in order to find a better CF or SATA converter. I don't know if it's easy or not, if it will be really an issue.

The better things to do is to let @megavolt85 chooses the better way to go on. When I look the wonderful things he has done with this loader already, it's not a challenge to be absolutly confident :-D

Thanks to the one who gaves me this save of resident evil code veronica, the first save here is before the tiger room, just a few rooms to get through :

Be carrefull it's a NTSC save.
Hope you can have a look, it's an issue with the gdemu too... Please let us go out of this loop ^^

To the CF card users, have you tried using this 44 pin ide cf card adapter and sd card to cf adapter?

I don't use that CF->IDE adapter in particular however they are passive converters and any one will work as good as another.

As for the SD->CF adapter, I know dragoncity has experience with them and has found that they work with Katana games but not with WinCE titles. Weigh your options appropriately.

Very interesting !

I updated my list !

[MastaG]

Hi, is it possible to play half-life from cf card?
EDIT: Nevermind, it wasn't picked up by the preset.
All it needs is DMA, works great.

only hardware player can have good compatibility
I look for the cheap decision for CDDA mod

А аппаратуру gdrom использовать для этого не получится? Может вопрос глупый. Но там же как раз заточенные на это микросхемы.

[megavolt85]

если только диск с CDDA вставлять, но это так себе затея

[megavolt85]

added Hydra Castle Labyrinth

[dragoncity]

Work great I added in my list !

Good job megavolt

[megavolt85]

Hydra Castle Labyrinth updated, added hotfix

На DreamShell у меня не запустилась (остальные homebrew тоже не работают). Коммерческие игры запускаются без проблем, а вот homebrew нет.

попробовал, при запуске игры появляется логотип сеги и после этого черный экран.

With sdcard hydra castle run well, don't try it with hdd for now. Maybe you have to descramble before using with hdd.


@megavolt85 I play hydra castle to the second boss, rumble pack runs marvellously, french localisation too, I delighted the game :-)

Just a problem, with the original version, there are regularly 2 disc access very fast, now there is only one around 1 second long and each time the game freeze and the controller is not active during this disc access... Is it possible to repack this like the original ? Or do this disk access during a screen changing ?

Other thing for french version if it's possible :
CopperPick -> Pioche de Cuivre (ok just for help you to locate)
Break through blocks -> Brise les blocs en 3 coups (missing the "s")

A new jewel you have done :-D
