Questions

[kxxx]

Hi there! First off, I want to say that it's very cool there is still so much going on in the world of the Dreamcast.

Last year I bought my first Dreamcast, specfically to play two games I had played previously on Nintendo 64. It is the black Sega Sports console and I love it.

Lately I've been looking into ways to get the most out of this system. This has led me here.

The first thing I'd like to do is either acquire a VGA box or perform the VGA mod. I'll likely be getting an extra system to practice this on. I don't have any specific questions about this, but if you have any idea how I could make an external box myself (instead of opening up my system) that would be helpful.

The second thing I would like to do is purchase an SD card adapter. I don't need any help with that specifically, but it does relate to the next thing.

Lastly, I'd like to maintain the system for as long as possible.

From what I understand, Dreamshell can help me do so.

So here is what I've gathered. Please correct me if any of these are wrong:

1. In order to play Dreamcast games and run emulators from an SD card, I need Dreamshell.

2.There is no way to run Dreamshell other than a disc without performing a BIOS mod on my system. From there I could install Dreamshell as a BIOS.

3. Dreamshell BIOS will allow me to play any Dreamcast game regardless of region.

4. Not all Dreamcast games will run through the SDCARD. Will I still be able to use the GDROM drive without having to change anything in the case of playing Crazy Taxi or another game determined not to work?

Thanks you for your help on this. If you could recommend which version of Dreamshell is best suited to my needs if not the latest I would appreciate it.

Thanks and keep up the good work!

Welcome!

1. I do not see any other solutions.
2. Currently yes.
3. You do not necessarily have a BIOS mod to run the games from the SD of any region.
4. Of course.

Please, little more information...
But how to back file. Image file after modification does not boot the disc. "Please insert disc ..."
(Emulator test)

After editing an image file, not boot disc... what to do?
(Sorry for the stupid question. But I'd appreciate some assistance.)
Thanks!

What you mean by "back file"?

> Image file after modification does not boot the disc

What disc are you trying to boot?

>After editing an image file, not boot disc... what to do?

You're probably broke something. With such a little quantity of information it's hard to tell something more specific.

Thanks reply!
The Head Hunter game disc in AHF folder. Used HexEditor change game subtitles edited, and save files.
5060HZ.AHF
ANGELA_F1.AHF
etc.

Replaced files, making image file.. (...) Possible problem selfboot.
How to restore it. or without damage files back.

I tried Icoming game which are in the txt files in Language folder.
Used tools SlefBoot. I used another tools create IP.bin file, Selfboot Inducer 5 create cdi file, running emulator...
Then collapse emulator. Something wrong.
