Have you tried PAL Patcher ?

Pal Patcher does not work with this game Megalexxx.
The only way I ever got it to run was by plugging my RF
cable in, instead of my Scart Lead.

Could you please send me your 1st_read.bin ?

I have the same problem.
I have a pal dreamcast and i've downloaded and burned 3 different versions of GL but each time my dreamcast show me the music menu.
I thought that was a burning problem ???

not the MUSIC MENU BUT THE DC MENU
Sorry :-(

Ok guys, try this :
_ make an image of your CD using DiscJuggler
_ open it with an hex editor
_ look for "ED 88 28 36 89 03 88 44 8B"
_ replace it by "ED 88 28 36 89 03 88 09 00"
_ save, burn and enjoy ! :)

Cheers Megalexxx, works a treat. About time I had this running right. Now If I could just get Urban Chaos (U) to do the same.

i'll try tomorrow and i'll post the feedback.

GREAT !! it works ! but Megalexx how did you find this hex strings ???

Easy : I'm a God. ;P

No, I just compared with my (working) version.
And since I've got a few notes on PAL patches, I'm used to look for that.

it's a very little modification compared with the kalisto patch (>500 ko). And it works with any iso version of this game. You should release a patch and up it to megagames cauz i've burned 3 or 4 CDs to make this game working and i know several pal dreamcast users in this case.
It will be usefull for guys that don't have the orignal kalisto iso.

Thanks again.

PS: aurais-tu un truc dans ce genre pour sega rally 2 qui aurait bien besoin d'un coup de 60HZ !!?? ;-)

Megagames doesn't refresh its patches list. I've send some patches recently, but they didn't put them on their site.

You can't make a generic patch for all images of a single game.
This is how PPF patches work : they specify the place, the number of bytes to change and the new bytes to write. There's also a control on your file's length (that's why you sometimes get a message "file size different from original, patch anyway ?") and there could be a control on the very first bytes in the file.
Since each image is different from a burning program to another, there's no way to specify a static place for the bytes to patch since they can be at different place from an image to another...

I wrote a program that looks for specific patterns and can then patch them, but I made it very generic. I could add this patch, but my proggy is already VERY SLOW (it scan all the image, looking for loads of data).

Lots of people are looking for a 60 Hz patch for Sega Rally 2. I haven't seen one yet.

Heureux de voir que je ne suis pas le seul francais ici. :)
Je pensais a un projet pour lister tous les patches PAL / 60 Hz pour tous les jeux. Tu as du temps libre ? ;)

Ok pas de problème pour ton projet.
je suis ok :cool:

Problems with this HEX-Code
