Have you unchecked "read only" attribute for 1st_read.bin ?
What is your error message ?

pr3ston · #3 05-09-2002, 08:54

the files are not read only

i get this error messeage:

I already had this problem, but I can't remember how I did...

You can try to "binhack" your file on your own :
_ open your 1st_read.bin using an hex editor
_ look for "CD001"

you should find something like "xx xx 00 00 01 00 00 00 43 44 30 30 31" just before (43 44 30 30 31 = "CD001")

_ change "xx xx" by "5C 2E"

hy

i opend the 1st_read.bin with hex workshop but

he says the specified string was not found

wich hex editor do you use for that ???

thanx

Strange...
This should be the reason why binhack doesn't work.

I use Hedit.

Did you try bin2boot ?

pr3ston · #7 06-09-2002, 07:07

hy again

i tried it also with hedit but i still can't find this string

then i tried bin2boot and he says that:

beta made by xeal - xeal.cjb.net

This program needs the name of the bin file.
Usage example: bin2boot binfile.bin
C:\Selfboot>bin2boot txr.bin
bin2boot - makes selfboot cdi from bin
beta made by xeal - xeal.cjb.net

Name of bin file: txr.bin
Mode 1 track
bin file size: 782686800
total sectors: 332775
big path table sector: 30
Finding the ip.bin...
A record for ip.bin was found.
sector: 308104
size: 32768
So far, so good.

Hacking ip.bin, boot file...

Boot filename: 1ST_READ.BIN
A record for the boot file could not be found.

C:\Selfboot>

any ideas ???

thanx

bye

I wonder if your image is correct...
I had this problem once : all files were here, and the game worked ok, but when I extracted files, they weren't correct.

Try to scan it for corruption with CDMage...

pr3ston · #9 09-09-2002, 12:06

cdmage says invalid format of file

other question:
maybe do you have the game

can you send me your 1st_read.bin ?

[email protected]

bye

Megalexxx · #10 09-09-2002, 15:07

You'll need more then 1st_read.bin if your iso is corrupted...
Have you tried to correct it with CDMage, or IsoBuster ?

pr3ston · #11 10-09-2002, 07:51

how can i correct it ?

i can't load it in cdmage, i get an error and then the programm

hangs!

thanx
