Tell you more?

There's nothing to tell. You only need to free up about 1 mb to get this to selfboot on an 80min, Echelon just didn't look hard enough.

There's actually about 20 mb worth of duplicate files. You simply leave the first file in tact and convert to zero bytes all the others which contain the same data. Then it's simply a matter of patching the LBA/Size information from one to the other... of course to do this manually would take you hours. I'd be happy to post the tools I wrote quickly this morning, except that it'd take me an hour to write out some documentation for it and that I'm not willing to do right now, I suspect most people don't really care.

But like I said, you only need to free about 1 mb which is 2 or 3 of the biggest duplicate files, and anyone can do that. The CD file system is pretty straight forward, just use your hex editor.

I've never heard of the game you mentioned. Did you manage to selfboot WWTBAM? They used some weird execuatable format to pack the 1ST_READ.BIN and make it incompatable with binhack. Perhaps it needs to be descrambled or something, who knows?
