Ok, so I found a site where I got a backup(I own the game... No really, I do;P) for Ultimate Fighting Championship and I download it. All goes well, I un-RAR it and all, burn it ok, but the damn thing won't work on my DC! I've already wasted 3 CDs on this, and I would like some feedback.
1st try, I didn't know much what to do, so I followed a guide at the site where I acquired the iso. I'm gonna quote what they said, because if I linked to it I would be linking to ISOs, and would be banned;)
"1-9. (Some crap about downloading and un-RARing)
10. Start Discjuggler.
11. Click File ----> New
12. You see a popup window, select CD Image to CD Recorder and press OK.
13. In the Source box, type in the location of the cdi file.
14. Under the Advanced tab, under Mode, select Mode 1.
15. In the Action box, select Write. Change nothing else.
16. Click on Start. Click Ok when it asks you to start actual burn.
17. When the recording is done, Put the CD in your Dreamcast and turn it on.
18. You see the Dreamcast logo and the Sega logo and then the game boots! No need for a boot cd!
Note: If you still get errors while burning then try lowering your burning speed and/or enable RAW write.
If Discjuggler doesn't recognise your burner then try CDI2NERO"
This didn't work. I tested it with and without the Utopia 1.1 boot cd and nothing.
2nd try. I had noticed that DJ said the cdi file had 2 sections, and from reading around the forums I concluded that the first one was audio and 2nd was video or gameplay(I don't really remember now) and linked to a guide on some site(which I can't find now, it had xead or something in the name) that said to use some weirdass programs to decompress the cdi into 2 isos and burn them with CDRWIN. I do so, and it STILL doesn't work.
3rd try. From reading some more posts around the forums, I decide to uninstall Discjuggler, reinstall it and burn without changing a SINGLE SETTING. Once again, it burns but won't work on the DC.
I'm using DJ 3.50.800, Utopia boot CD 1.1, and my DC was made in August 2000. I left the computer alone during the burning process in all 3 occasions, and on all 3, I tested to see if it was self-booting, and then with the bootcd. Any feedback would be appreciated, since this is pissing me off:P
