Might be a problem with the games list (the file inside the menu). Like an invalid character.
Are you using Gdmenu Card Manager? (I think you're not using it, as your menu is in CDI and the app saves it in GDI format).
Send me your games list via PM and I can take a look to find some common errors

Download the latest version of ".NET Desktop Runtime 5":
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/dotnet/5.0
Get the installer for windows (x64 or x86).

Hi,
No, don't need to install visual studio.
Looks like you are installing the SDK? Don't need the SDK...
You need to install only the Runtime: ".NET Desktop Runtime 5"

I found a better link to get it:
https://dotnet.microsoft.com/download/d ... .0/runtime
Go for the "Run desktop apps"

And yes, the microsoft page for .NET is very confusing.
I also updated the first page with the link and better instructions.

Many thanks Sonik!
I was selecting the wrong Type of app !

Reason i want to try your card maker is to speed up load times, as mad sheep seems to take around 50 seconds to get going.

Can i ask another favor?
Im looking for a working PSO V2 sylverent Gdi patcher
i have tried 2 allready without success.

I look forward to testing your GDEMU App :)

Ciao Sonik,

I was very happy to give a try at your tool. However .y clone gdemu doesn't seem to recognise at all my SD card after that and asks me to insert a disk.
Any clue what it can be? Should I revert to the old tool? Also I noticed your tool doesn't rename the files within the folders, is that normal?

Thanks for answering

Hi!

It will rename the main file (gdi/cdi/mds) to "disc.(gdi/cdi/mds)". It won't touch any other file name.

I need more info to help. Are you on windows? using the latest version of the app?
Do an quick look ate the files on the card.. There's the 01 or 001 folder? What's inside?
There's an gdemu.ini file on the root of the card?

I'm on windows 10. Gdemu.ini is there. Folders were renamed into 01, 02 etc. Disc were renamed into disc.gdi or disc.cdi
