Giga Wing 1 won't run
Posted: Tue Sep 03, 2024 7:18 am
I cannot get Giga Wing 1 to run on my GDEMU. It just resets to Dreamcast intro screen. All other games work fine. Anyone experienced this and/or have a solution? Thanks!
Based off how you are saying the name I assume you are using the copy from my thread in downloads? If so please download again. Every game works. Also make sure you have space on vmu card.
Yes its from your thread
Glad you're enjoying the collection so far!bayram wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 3:40 pmYes its from your threadI tried downloading it again and it still wont work; reboots after Dreamcast splash screen. I have over 100 GB free space on the card. All other games I've tried from the thread, bar Virtua Cop 2, works perfectly. In the case of Virtua Cop 2 i found another GDI that had not been cropped and that one worked. Might the issue be the cropping of the file? Thank you for all your efforts sir!
Edit - come to think of it, I tried another two other Giga Wing files, one CDI and one GDI that also were not cropped and those didn't work either. So I have no clue what might be the issue :/ Any suggestions?
I also use a 5.20 gdemu clone, hooked up to a 26 inch Bang Olufsen CRT tv by the way of a SCART cable. It makes zero sense to me why this one game should not workdubcity wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 5:05 pmGlad you're enjoying the collection so far!bayram wrote: ↑Wed Sep 04, 2024 3:40 pmYes its from your threadI tried downloading it again and it still wont work; reboots after Dreamcast splash screen.

I have downloaded gigawing and put only it on an sd card. It works and I play a little. Watch this video.
Here is my setup: 5.20 gdemu clone, vga cable, gbs-c upscaler, insignia 32 inch tv
Maybe there is something in your setup that makes the game not wanna work.
The difference is your scart cable. You should apply rgb patch found here: https://dreamcast-talk.com/forum/viewto ... 39#p141589bayram wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2024 1:33 pmI also use a 5.20 gdemu clone, hooked up to a 26 inch Bang Olufsen CRT tv by the way of a SCART cable.

Ah yes, that must be it! How do I proceed to apply these patches? Thanks!dubcity wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2024 4:17 pmThe difference is your scart cable.

You need an app that can apply ppf patches. Use PPF-O-Matic.bayram wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2024 5:24 pmAh yes, that must be it! How do I proceed to apply these patches?

Thank you! I applied the gdi disk image as well as the rgb patch that you provided to the corresponding places, but the game still wont boot. Am I missing something? I see that the docs says that I need to use a BIN file. I guess that means that I can`t use the games from your list?dubcity wrote: ↑Thu Sep 05, 2024 7:04 pmYou need an app that can apply ppf patches.
