Which is hard to burn? The boot disk or the actual games?

The 2009 versions are the easiest to burn. The 2011 versions which allowed you to load other games from the 3 retail discs was notoriously hard to burn. In 2011 when I was doing this I also wasted over 20 discs trying to discover the absolute best way to burn them. They burn best in DiscJuggler, and with settings completely different to normal DC games.

You can find the 3 retail games here in the Bleem downloads section. I asked Impulse to sticky the most important threads for us in that section so now they are easy to find. They are a complete collection, and include the PSX games as well as the boot discs.

The individual pages for each retail come from the 2009 release. The ones that boot other games with disc check skipped are in this thread and do require wildly different settings to burn. The absolutely will not burn correctly in anything else other than Discjuggler. The 2009 versions should burn fine as normal.

If you try to burn that one it is in the bleem_cd_check_fix.7z file. I included the settings in the comments below that I had to use for them. Tekken 3 was one of the hardest to get working.

How can I get authorisation to see this thread?

You have to get your post count up. I am not sure if it is 5 posts but I think it is between 5-10.
