I dumped a GC game and got 1 file named xxxx.bin (approx 1500mb).

Can I just rename it to xxxx.iso and then burn it, or do I have to convert it somehow?

Bug report:

When dumping an GC disc and the character at disc offset 0x06 is not NULL it is added to the destination file name. The problem is, that this character is most an control character that is not allowed as file name. superdump will hang after trying to write the image.

Possible solution: Replace in your snprintf() call "%s" with "%.6s"




@Muyfa666: Yes, rename it or use a better burning program that allow other extensions.

I have also had this problem with the second disc of resident evil disc 2. Disc 1 dumps fine but when i go to dump disc 2 it causes an error due to a character that isn't supported in file names.

It would be great if there could be used FAT32-USB-devices with superdump.
Then you will be able to dump a gamedisc in one part.
Is it possible for you to release it, too? ;)

AFAIK, FTPii will allow you to do that. You run it on the Wii with the disc inserted, then use an FTP client on your PC to connect to it, and it should show the disc, navigate to it and there should be an ISO; copy that to your PC and wait for it to do it's thing, and you're done.

    yall im torn... ive been hacking away at tales of phantasia GBA (the USA version) and have so many documents of reverse engineering i've done
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I just found out that the EU version is better in literally every way, better sound quality, better lighting, and there's even a patch someone made to make the text look nicer
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    Do I restart now using what i've learned on the EU version since it's a better overall experience? or do I continue with the US version since that is what ive been using, and if someone decides to play my hack, it would most likely be that version?
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    @TwoSpikedHands, I'll preface this with the fact that I know nothing about the game, but, I think it depends on what your goals are. Are you trying to make a definitive version of the game? You may want to refocus your efforts on the EU version then. Or, are you trying to make a better US version? In which case, the only way to make a better US version is to keep on plugging away at that one ;)
  • Sicklyboy @ Sicklyboy:
    I'm not familiar with the technicalities of the differences between the two versions, but I'm wondering if at least some of those differences are things that you could port over to the US version in your patch without having to include copyrighted assets from the EU version
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    @Sicklyboy I am wanting to fully change the game and bend it to my will lol. I would like to eventually have the ability to add more characters, enemies, even have a completely different story if i wanted. I already have the ability to change the tilemaps in the US version, so I can basically make my own map and warp to it in game - so I'm pretty far into it!
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I really would like to make a hack that I would enjoy playing, and maybe other people would too. swapping to the EU version would also mean my US friends could not legally play it
