you have the new CIOS249 installed with DVDX installed Advanced over the top of it?

DVDX after you update CIOS

Have you got any backups to work?

Yeh an DVD+RW disc might be pushing it. Try a standard -r disc burnt at x4 with a game you know should work for a first run.

Place it in a new folder into "apps", and rename it boot.dol

Hi,
im getting the same -4100 error message when i try to load up backups....i know that i have done everything correctly, and believe the problem is when im burning the partition file. Like some other users on here, i am using IMGburn, and i think i need to change the book type to DVD-ROM, but when i go to do it, i can select my driver and i select DVD-ROM, but when i hit the change button an error message appears saying "no additional sence information". Am i doing somthing wrong, like selecting the wrong drive?, or maybe my firmware for it needs updating? Help on this would be appreciated.

Honestly, the issue is that everyone keeps using imgburn. Imgburn is a free burner and unfortuantely, you get what you pay for. Nero burned a disc for me on the first try and I didn't have to change any settings AND I'm using dvd+rw media!

I also tried using nero, but i get the same results, it burns as a DVD+R instead of DVD-ROM, + i tried updating my DVD writers firmware through device manager, and it tells me i have the latest. Really stuck here

Ive been reading up on the internet, and others have spoke of the same thing happening when they tried to change the book type, the conclusion the have come to is that the DVD writer, or its firmware, does not support changing the book type. But i dont no how true this is, hoping i will not have to buy another DVD writer.

What should I do?

You need to tell us what type of drive you have. The actual name that shows up when you are selecting which drive to durn with, and also what type of media you are using. Normally when a value error occurs it is because th edrive does not support typesetting. A firmware update can 'normally' fix this issue.

Yeah same thing, I can change DVD+R / DVD+RW / +R DL but no -RW ;-(

Any other program to modify the book type on a -RW ?

you don't need to modify any - format and it is not supported to do so anyway
you only need to booktype + format media


I can only get the -4100 error no matter what I do, could it be because I have a chip installed? (D2Pro Clone)

    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
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I am definitely considering porting over some of the EU features without using the actual ROM itself, tbh that would probably be the best way to go about it... but i'm sad that the voice acting is so.... not good on the US version. May not be a way around that though
  • TwoSpikedHands @ TwoSpikedHands:
    I appreciate the insight!
