    Homebrew RetroArch Switch

    Heya loving this port, just wanted to point out that there seems to be some sort of problem with the dithering option on PCSXReARMed. I've tried every combination of turning it on and off and restarting but it just seems to do nothing, whereas the PC core's dithering option works the instant you...

    Hacking [RCM Payload] Hekate - CTCaer mod

    Ahh okay, that makes sense! I think another way of optimizing it would be to calculate the hashes of the NAND during dumping the NAND, store them in an array then save them alongside the NAND as something like rawnand.sha (with 4MB blocks this is only 232KB of memory), then when verifying you...

    Hacking [RCM Payload] Hekate - CTCaer mod

    Isn't SHA256 a little bit overkill for file verification? CRC32 would be more than enough to compare sectors and would be way faster...

    FFXIII is 32.6GB of movies

    1.) 6.8GB is nothing to be sniffed at for gamedata. 2.) This is the first game this gen to have CG video at the same quality of Blu-ray movies, 1080p high-bitrate H.264 video with lossless audio. That 32.6GB is probably only around 2 hours of video.

    Gaming KH BBS UPDATES

    This is bull. It's not a 6.20 thing, seeing as the game runs flawlessly in 5.50 with a UMD. There are no calls to the UPDATE directory anywhere in the EBOOT, so the game never looks at it. This is defintely copy protection within the games code, one I'm sure even a 6.20 CFW wouldn't circumvent...

    Gaming Kingdom Hearts Birth by Sleep has been leaked

    Here are my thoughts, copied and pasted from another forum. It's not a decryption issue with the EBOOT for sure, but I think it's definitely a decryption issue. If you look at BBS1.DAT (BBS2.DAT and BBS3.DAT as well) in a hex editor, you'll notice they start of with a the header 00504744 (PGD)...

    ROM Hack Riping ds game encoded video

    I'm 99% sure that TWEWY doesn't have any FMV, the cutscenes with voice acting are just created with sprites and an audio track.

    Gaming Vote the graphics of Kingdom Hearts 358/2 Days

    The models and textures are on par with Vagrant Story... but the game looks closer to a PS2 game just because of the art-direction, they did a great job of making everything look better than it should.

    ROM Hack KH 358/2

    Just to clarify, me and psycoblaster are two different people. I was going to do something like this (and what I would have done with Crisis Core if I hadn't gotten frustrated with trying to implement a VWF), but it appears psycoblaster's done heaps of amazing work on this already, so I'll wait...

    ROM Hack KH 358/2

    Yeah, the fourth option is literally "chara change", so Character Selection or Character Change would be the best translations.
