sounds like one of your files is corrupt

but for a laugh look for bin2boot, rip your game back on your pc as a bin file, and dump your bin file on bin2boot, you'll be given a disk juggler image, burn that and see if you have any luck, know it helped me with some games like mortal kombat gold

besides, your english aint that bad

There's a "country protection fix" for this game :

thanx for your posts

i tried the protection fix but it says filesize does not match,
or should i continue anyway ???

i can create a selfbootable cdi with bin2boot. but the pal
protection is still there, or not ???

i also used pal patcher 0.93 but he finds nothing

any ideas ???

thanx for help

bye

try patching it and seeing if it runs, if it does be sure to send both boot files to megalexx for his research

Bin2Boot doesn't remove anything. It only set LBA value to 0 in the 1st read file. Nothing else. So the protection will still be there.

Try to apply your patch even if it says the filesize is wrong : it sometimes works.
