For those games pack (TJ&E etc...) it's maybe due to my CF card size at 128Go. If I remember well you are using a smaller one, it's maybe the issue. We know the best sd card for gdemu is not beyond 32Go.

I'm also waiting for the sata to ide converter that @Crismod mentioned, we'll see if it's more compatible.

On discord forum, you correcting me when I said that dreamshell doesn't read .cdi and .bin, did you think about 0.6.1 loader ? It was a terrible efficient one too, reading atomiswave, most of wince games, and cdda TMU 2 has no distorsions even if the cdda loop was not include. Yeah I keep it in mind, even if it's not compatible with RC5 the last time I tried it.
You work so hard on loaders, it's normal there are some fantastic ones that complete the last wonderful release

It's one of dreamshell strength, every user can selected is stuff, nowhere we can see that

I use SanDisk Extreme Pro 128 GB 160 MB/s UDMA 7.
All these games that you listed working fine for me, including Atomiswave.
Also @megavolt85 tested these games on IDE HDD and it's fine too.

The loader 0.6.1 doesn't have IRQ support so they uses more memory for CDDA buffer, high memory btw in fixed place. But I think I understand what you mean, because I implemented the heap so we could lose some good cases. If the game cleanup the memory at startup and we should use high memory for heap because CDDA buffer is big (IRQ disabled or loader at 4000+). If the heap placed in high memory and game reset this memory, so the loader is dead too, and doesn't matter if binary is untouched, in the heap stored all the states. Hmm I'll think about this situation.
In theory, solution of this can be useful for Looney Tunes. This game working on 0.6.1?
