How do you hack an exe?

[mr.mr.]

how do you hack a dreamcast exe to accept downsampled wav files?

[Flavangel]

You can't hack an .EXE, but just an .BIN file to make your games read the .WAV files!

CYA!

Then how exactly do you hack a bin file..do i need a hex editor and what values do i need to change?

[Flavangel]

You need dahack.exe and cdda.exe.
Go to Xena's Homepage to download them.

Usage:
Search with Windows for "*.BIN" files containing "CD001".
On the files you found apply (Using the MS-DOS Prompt):
dahack ".BIN file" 2nd msinfo number
cdda ".BIN file"
And your .BIN files will be hacked and able to read your .WAV files!
Happy? ;-)

You don't get a DC EXE to except downsampled WAV files, you record them to CDR as audio files, on the first session. You then use dahack & CDDA on bootbin, after getting msinfo number from CDR with audio tracks on (don't forget to leave CDR open).

ie

at DOS prompt

cdrecord -dev=0,4,0 -msinfo (where 0,4,0 is scsi bus address)

msinfo maybe something like 122498

so:-
dahack 1st_read.bin 122498
cdda 1st_read.bin

what flavangel has put doesn't seem to make sense.

Bye now
