Make Fresh Burned/Copy Games

Post by AgentMomo »

Hi my game plan is to , when needed too , If I need to burn/copy a game to Bypass the Region stuff ,

How am I suppose to do this ?

I do know I can download ISO of CDI's but I do not want that , I want to make my own fresh ones with a legit copy of the game.

I tried it once with IMG Burn with the CDI Plug-in for a NHL 2K CDI that I downloaded and when it burned the Dreamcast read it as

a 1 track 74 min music cd :lol:

What do I need for me to make Fresh Copies from Legit Game CDS ?

Cant really do that thats why there is the releases gdrom there 1gb some games have copyprotection even if you did you end up with the same as you downloaded..

If it could be done like that would been no need for the scene groups that repacked the games down to fit on cdrs..

Like Ian Micheal said its all on a game by game basis. For example ECHELON decided to rip the intro video on the release of NHL2K2 to fit a 80min CD-R. Kalisto had to rip some CDDA music on NHL2K.

AH Okay I am totally understanding this now , Apparently their was a special device needed to dump CDI from Dreamcast to Computer.

Yeah I am just needing to use the Upload CDI/ISOs of Sport games. Oddly not all the Hockey and Football games seen a Japan unless they are indeed that rare to find ?
