GCN Looking for the tool that use NGC iso files

spotanjo3 · Dec 2, 2020

I am looking for the tool that verify gamecube iso to see if it is trimmed or untouched iso. Because I prefer untouched iso and untrimmed at all. Is there ?

After a "little" Searching and looking,I remembered on this nice Package:

I am not sure,it have this Option for Verification,it is more the GameCube Counterpart to the WiiBackup Manager.

Good Luck.
Thank you.

Hi back!

Thanks for replying asap.

Not sure about that too but I will take a look at it. For now, I should wait until there are other tools for it then I can test few and report back at what I find. I wait for now. Anybody else knows other tools ?

Aren't untrimmed Gamecube Images all the same size?
1459978240 bytes to be precise - if you see something different, then you know your images are dumped wrong.

I think the NKit Tool(s)
(NKit Processing App) have this verifying Option.
I have not used/tested it actual with GameCube ISO´s.

Repair: Can repair GameCube and Wii Game Images to match verified redump Images.
This happens with the help of "recovery files" with which the ISO is rebuilt.
It also repairs modified disc headers, unscrubbed blocks, missing disc partitions and shifted GameCube file systems.

Thank you. If they are trimmed then what bytes to be precise ? So I can compare them.

By the way, mine is according to your bytes to be precise so its untrimmed.

I noticed it before you mentioned it but I will have to grab my Windows 10 Laptop to do that. Anyway, I am using my macOS laptop right now. Tonight, I will get Windows 10 laptop to check it out and report to you.

Trimmed ISOs only store game data only and NO garbage bytes. Garbage bytes is why all 1:1 ISOs are 1459978240 bytes.
If the size is smaller than it's trimmed. If bigger than it's a bad dump or one of the few games that can't be trimmed which return a bigger size.

On Mac, if the bytes match when you control+click the ISO and "Get Info" then you can run the MD5 Terminal command and compare it to redump.org. Open Terminal and type MD5 with a space and then drag and drop the ISO into the windows and hit enter/return. Then compare the result to the website I gave you.

Much appreciated for your time. By the way, I already know about my macOS. I am experience user of macOS.

I just mentioned that mine just match according to your statement.

Right. I read further information on Google some more. I understand and thanks for your time.
