HOW TO BURN AGAIN AN ALREADY SELF-BOOT CD
 
hi there, I have the following problem: I have changed the adx files in my THPS2 game, so I get different musics in the soundtrack... I followed the selfboot tutorial to put data back to my cd, but my cd is already self-boot, so I donīt have IP.BIN... I tryied to follow the tutorial using cdrecord to burn the audio session and the data session, the cd was burned right (I skiped the ipbinhack part cause i donīt have ip.bin) but it didnīt work, the cd I got didnīt selfboot nor boot with a boot cd... does anyone can tell me how to put things back to the cd (doesnīt matter if ill get a non-selfboot, I just want to change my soundtrack using as source a self-boot cd of THPS2)...

If you skip an IPBINHACK step - you're fool ;)
In IP.BIN file stores all the main info about current CD. This file is necessarily.
Your problem is that you can't see 1st session of the cd where the Ip.BIN is located. It's not a problem - cause I have over 30 copied games and I made it selfbootable or simply copying already bootable game on other cd using an Ip.BIN file from SpaceChannel5. As I can understand it's no matter what ip.bin file you're using - cause echelon self-boot tool made all necessery changes of it. It works for me fine.
So, just copy all the files from the cd (from the 2nd session of it), remove read-only attribute. Then copy any ip.bin from any of your cd to the same directory. Follow the self-boot programm instructions as nothing happens.
I use this technique when I don't know how to back-up already self-boot games. Not all burning software can handle with multisession discs. Later I found DiskJuggler can.

wow!!! this one rocks... I donīt know if it works, but itīs much easier than what I did... in order to make it work, as I didnīt have a IP.BIN file, I converted it to a non-selfboot CD, using a tutorial (I donīt remember the address from where I got it)... itīs just like making a CDI using CDRWIN, than use CDIRIP to get an ISO from the CDI file, and then using ISOFIX to reorder it (then I got a bootfile.bin, which I renamed to IP.BIN)... I donīt remember the owner of this tutorial, but credits go to someone nicknamed DIRTYGIRL (thank ya)... then I had to extract files using isobuster, do some crazy hex edit, change the ADX files to replace the original soundtrack, and reburn it... TOO MUCH WORK! Iīd rather use your method (it sounds great)...
