How to patch language a GDI games ? Any tutorial ?

Post#1 » Wed Mar 24, 2021 11:25 pm

Hi: I was looking for instructions for patching (using xdelta or deltapatch 2.0) a GDI file but I could not find anything in the whole web. I just need to apply language patch to some games but the softwares I have do not allows me to charge the GDI

if anyone know how to do it just post it, thanx

I'm guessing that you need to extract the GDI, apply the delta patch to track03.bin, and then rebuild the GDI. Is there no readme included?

Here's a GDI extractor/rebuilder tool:

Okay, so your issue was that you were using a truncated GDI, rather than the original full one. Use this version instead:

As you can see, I was able to patch and boot the game:

Thank you, so you refer GDI with BIN files, not GDI-Optimized (iso) ?

Right, just stick with the standard TOSEC-style vanilla GDIs.
