C'MON I NEED OTHER IDEA
 

Hy, everyone.
Today I mod my dc pal with 4 wires to try to change my situation, but nothing change!
I think my problem is about non mil-cd.....
I need to know a simple method to chande audio/data image to data/data image.
My image are all bootable and audio/data so I need a trick to test data/data.
Please.
Thanks

Did you try to boot Utopia boot CD ?
You'll be fixed !

Otherwise, you'll have to use Bin2Boot method to make data/data selfboot games. It's quite easy to do.

from what i have read all pal dreamcast's seem compitable with the audio/data mode it seems as though they only altered the ntsc dreamcast's!!

TO MEGALEXXX - IMPORTANT -
 

Hy Mega, now my last test!
Finally, my friend give me old Dc.
And now the surprise, every cd/r go fine!!!!
Ok now I'm "INKAZZATO" in english sounds like furious!
I try utopia boot cd on my dc and go fine.
But I think that utopia is not audio/data but data/data.
I try utopia disk on my dc with only game without auto boot(Re c.v.)and it's go fine!
Now at finally I know problem.
If I can remove self boot from my cd i can play with my dc!
But faq about non mil-cd it's wrong.
Now I try to explain.
CDI file NRG file in share are everyone autoboot, but faq try to explain to create an autoboot game(data/data) from a non autoboot game(need utopia).
So most passages are wrong.
I try to create iso9660 with cdrwin and after burn with nero, but game seems go but after dc return at menu of choise!
I try to use on iso9660 file bin2boot. But don't work. I think because there in the file there's autoboot.
Cdrip0.6 don't work in 90% of autoboot file. it tells that file is broken.....and stop.
Often Isobuster don't open iso
the same problem with cdmage that crash PC!!!!(with memory manager installed!!!!!
SO please Megalexxx tell me something.
In 3 days I study the entire dc sector but everything seems to go differently.
I think that faq are too old for this time.
Please tell me if I'm going fine and if my study are Ok.
And last give me a simple but real simple method to remove autoboot, from cdi file that just had.
Thanks for time you dedicated to me.
Thanks to all.

_ I think the FAQ telling how to create selfboot games from nonboot games is good
_ CDMage locks when your CDI image is too recent (it doesn't support latest versions of DiskJuggler). In that case, you must use CDIRip and IsoFix.
_ I think tutorials to create nonboot games from selfboot games (even if there's no need to), or to "convert" audio/data CD to data/data CD have already been written. Anyway :

_ to remove selfboot (I didn't try that) :
1) copy all files from your burnt CD to a directory (or extract them with any tool you want)
2) extract ip.bin from your selfboot CD using my tool (IPExtractor)
3) look for every files containing "CD001" and binhack them to 0 (i.e. "binhack xxx.bin 0").
4) burn the whole files to a CD as data, and finalize session

_ to "convert" audio/data to data/data :
1) copy all files from your burnt CD to a directory (or extract them with any tool you want)
2) extract ip.bin from your selfboot CD using my tool (IPExtractor)
3) look for every files containing "CD001" and binhack them to 0 (i.e. "binhack xxx.bin 0").
4) use CDRWin to build an ISO9660 image (uncheck "preserve full pathname" and "include archive files only", check "include idden files", "long filenames", "include system files" and
"recurse subdirectories")
5) use Bin2Boot on the resulting image

This should work for games without CDDA.
Can someone confirm ?
