ISO Loader 0.8.x Beta + preview of DreamShell v4.0 RC 5

[pcwzrd13]

@SWAT Tested Speed Devils today from an IDE HDD and from another CF card but got the same results (music crashes after every race). The CF card I think is the same one you're using, a SanDisk Extreme 120MB/s UDMA7. So it's not the card/drive that's the issue. Very strange. I'm also not seeing the white loading screen that you're seeing. My loading screen is normal.

You used true async DMA or PIO?
The game disc image the same or exists different versions? Try my image: https://mega.nz/file/roBVyCiI#xaXRKXW8eK...R25CwOZVvk

@SWAT DMA/True Async. NTSC-U Dreamcast with the DS Loader BIOS.

I'll give that image a try tomorrow.

@SWAT That image you uploaded is "Speed Devils Online", not the regular Speed Devils. That's probably why we're getting different results.

This is the correct one:

I get it here and will try: http://www.dc-swat.ru/forum/thread-3851.html

I finally received my stuff for my dreamcast power supply and CF reader.

I think I put that this evening, do you need some particular tests @Swat ?

Nothing special. Just test what you want.

Did a few tests and found the cause.
The fact is that the game reinitializes the GD syscalls without stopping CDDA playback. I added a stop to init, sound not freezing now, but control is still buggy, I don’t know how to fix it yet.

Is it possible to change the language of other countries, Japanese or other languages,

Hello, does anyone have the configuration for Zero Gunner 2? I have already tried several but it has not worked, only with 8c004000 and 8c004800 without DMA but it crashes at any time.

I use CF Card and GDI image.

Thanks!.

Edit 1:
With 8cfe0000 it works up to stage 3

[Freudi93]

Are there any differences If console is Region ntsc-j? Should i Change it to PAL or Not necessary?

Try 8c004000 with different heap mode: KATANA heap, Maple DMA buffer, behind the loader, 8cfe0000/8cfe8000

In most cases it's not necessary.

[Freudi93]

In which cases it is necessary?

It didn't work for me and I made many combinations in the loader parameters.

8c004000|Katana| Maple DMA
8c004000|Katana| Heap Katana
8c004000|Katana| Begin Loader
8c004000|Katana| 8cfe0000
8c004000|Katana| 8cfe8000

8cfe0000|Katana| Maple DMA
8cfe0000|Katana| Heap Katana
8cfe0000|Katana| Begin Loader

8cfe8000|Katana| Maple DMA
8cfe8000|Katana| Heap Katana
8cfe8000|Katana| Begin Loader


I have a video, in which the stage called "Submergence City" crashes after killing the semi-boss, always at that time.

Just few games maybe, not sure. Almost unnecessary.

Thanks for testing. Need research, can't help now.

Добрый день.

В версии 0.8 Beta был исправлен данный баг: http://www.dc-swat.ru/forum/thread-3525-...l#pid42471 ?
Если нет, то планируется ли исправление в будущем?

Here the opening of Skies of Arcadia worked normally.
I used an IDE HDD.
Too bad DreamShell doesn't work when GDemu is connected to dreamcast. From what I've read it's GDemu's fault for DreamShell not working with GDemu installed.
Thank you for your work.

Hello,

You can connect GDEMU with HDD or CF MOD, in this video they explain it but it is in Spanish, there the diagram shows at minute 7:44.

Thanks for the video.
My native language is Portuguese, so even though the video is in Spanish, I can understand almost everything, as both languages are similar.
