When to hack...ripper in need of help

Ok, I'm new to the ripping scene. I've read a bunch of tutorials and have a few questions.

How do you check/now when a bin file needs to be hacked? And how do you determin witch program to use when hacking? (I.E. dahack, or hack3, etc..)

[scorpion225]

GDROM Protection Crack-Katana
use Hack3.exe

If your Rip still doesn't work like "hanging after the licensed screen or restart"
Use Hack4.exe

then follow echelons sbg

GDROM Protection Crack-Katana/CDDA
Use Dahack.exe and CDDA.exe

then follow echelons sbg

GDROM Protection Wince-Games
Use Bincon

Bincon 0WINCEOS.BIN 1WINCEOS.BIN

Delete 0WINCEOS.BIN

Rename 1WINCEOS.BIN 0WINCEOS.BIN

Start IPBIN4WIN, Open up the ip.bin file,
turn the "SXXA OS Used" Box on
Click Patch.

Follow Echelon selfboot method step by step

your question whitch bins you should have to patch: mostly you must only patch the 1st_read.bin, if not try patch all of them, the programs do nothing if they don´t must be patched.
