Are there any users of the CDI who burned to disc that can say they've also experienced this?
https://github.com/DerekPascarella/Rain ... t/issues/2I had someone submit a bug report stating the following:
Code: Select all
Sometimes the music gets stuck on a short ~1 second loop that persists until the next track starts.
Not a big deal, but has happened to me a few times.
I'm playing on a Japanese Dreamcast using a burned CD-R of the 1.0 release.
BTW thanks for the awesome translation! I'm actually really enjoying this game. The controls aren't so bad when you get used to them.
My response was as follows:
Code: Select all
Thank you for submitting this report and letting me know. I haven't heard similar from any other CD-R users, nor seen it in any playthrough streams done by CD-R users. I can't say for sure, but it might be your burn media to blame, or even your GD-ROM drive.
While the issue could be with the patch itself, to be fair there never was an "official" CDI release. This game (along with most of my other Dreamcast translation patches) was released to target GDIs. However, as an added bonus I like to build a CDI and get it out into the community, that way players can enjoy it even if they don’t have an ODE. As a result, the CDI version is sometimes not fully tested, which I indicate at the time of release.
That said, several people told me they played it in its entirety without issue, so I considered the CDI version stable. I'll take a look at it again, though. It's possible the audio tracks can be further optimized for CD-R, which means downsampled to lower quality.
