Need help making Wacky Races selfboot.

[tein357]

Any help would be appreciated, I have tried the ECHELON method with no success. Is there some special hack that needs to be done to the 1ST_READ.BIN to make it selfboot? (like with F355 Challenge)

I was about to just give up but I thought I would post here first.

Thanks,
Noe.

Afaik I used bin2boot to make this one bootable.
Bin2Boot
I used it on the original kalisto us release.
Good luck

Thanks,

I have the Kalisto (bin/cue) release also and bin2boot did the trick. I even tried to use AutoDummy to pad the bin a little before I used bin2boot and that also worked fine

I was actually able to use the bin2boot tool to selfboot some other games that I have had trouble with in the past:

Street Fighter 3 Double Impact
Rayman 2

I had to make bin/cue images of them first using CDRWIN but after that bin2boot made it easy.

NOTE #1: Using AutoDummy on Street Fighter 3 Double Impact seemed to make one of the games on the disc unplayable (it just would not load and stayed at a black screen when the game was selected). I believe it was the one on the left (Street Fighter 3). Fortunately, I did not really need to use AutoDummy on this game, it seemed to already have a large dummy file that took the game all the way up to 77 minutes after it was made selfboot with bin2boot. I was just being greedy and trying to get it up to 80 minutes

NOTE #2: Rayman 2 seems to have a real problem with non-Sega VMU memory cards. It could not save to my MadCatz memory card at all and caused all of the in-game menus to function very slowly. Fortunately, I had an old (dead battery) Sega VMU laying around so everything work fine now.

Thanks again,
Noe.

with only bin2boot the game voices are still choppy. any suggestion for the file order? any sort file is available?
because the LBA for the sb files using bin2boot is really strange. a dummy helps ?
