I finally figured it out after about 100 CDs (I know that sounds a little extreme, but I wanted it that bad). My major problem was that in using cdrecord, it always set the offset to 11702 while obsidian is set to 11700. I tried to use cdrwin, which supposedly would burn audio.raw to 11700, however it wouldn’t recognize my burner. I even followed someone’s advice and use cuttrack to chop audio.raw down so that it would burn to 11700, but no matter how far I trimmed it down to, the offset was still 11702. So next I had to resort to hex editing. In reading some of the threads on this forum the general consensus was to change the 7th and 8th bytes in front of every occurrence of CD001 in the 4 bin files. Supposedly 1st_read.bin and manifest.bin had 2 occurrences of CD001 and the other 2 bins had 1 occurrence each. This was true, except that the 7th and 8th bytes were supposed to be 5A2E and were supposed to be changed to 5C2E. The problems with my files was that ginreset.bin and mde_us.bin had no occurrences of 5A2E and the other 2 bins only had 1 occurrence each of 5A2E. I read on these forums that a few other people have had this problem, and could not find anyone that had a solution to it. So what I finally decided to do was hex edit the 7th and 8th bytes in front of every occurrence of CD001 in those bins, whether or not 5A2E was present. I then used Ultimate Selfboot to create and burn the disc and it finally worked. It doesn’t look like there are that many people still trying to get segagen to work, but if you still are, I hope this helps.
