Any Hope of a Generic Echelon intro remover?

[Trotterwatch]

I think the only reason Chris wants to remove the intro is for the emulator Chanka. Unfortunately at the moment the emulator has a hiccup when running games with Echelon intros - as such the removal of them would help with running games and setting up a proper compatability list.

I understand your point though.

also, on some games with intros, you cant use gameshark codes with it.

I agree with You hrb2k. But You can use codes on this games but they not working (Tennis 2k2, Bomberman Online, NHL 2k2 ?, Conflict Zone etc.)

But....anybody tested games with ech intro on non-selfboot?
Binhack (dos) cant patch this bins to lba 0, maybe other apps can (like binpatch).

thats because most echelon intro'd 1st_read.bins are compressed. if you know the lba hex value of the bin and you open it in a hex editor, searching CD001, the lba reference wont match the hex code of the lba because of compression. so if you binhack it anyway, you're prolly change something else, too.
