Using the latest version downloaded through Nintendont, but I'll grab the latest from the Google Code page just to be sure.



1.44 GB (1,550,199,046 bytes) - is this shrunk or full-size? If it's shrunk, what can I do?


It's more than full size, ISO images are no more than 1.35 GB or 1,459,978,240 bytes, so maybe the ISO image is corrupt. Did you verify the SHA-1, CRC32 and other hashes on redump.org? You need to either redump it or...get a clean ISO dump that's 1,459,978,240 bytes exactly.

Eternal Arcadia (Japanese Skies of Arcadia) works fine here on latest version (2.296).

I seem to recall that it must not be shrunk using DMToolbox because it corrupts the image rather than shrinking (it produces an oversized image, like above)

The SHA-1 and MD5 is not the same as the one on this page http://redump.org/disc/5552/ as checked using CHK.

That... Cant be right. GameCube disks are 1.35 GB, MAX, shrunk or not. Your ISO is either fake or very corrupted

So then, how can I fix it? I cannot recall where the image was stored..

I'm afraid there's probably not much that can be done. The image is corrupt so you'll have to get a fresh image from wherever you got it before.

Did you rip the game yourself you download it from the interwebz?

I don't have the ability to rip it right now.

Hmm.. thanks for the quick replies. At least now I know where the problem lies.

There are plenty of places to obtain a clean dump, however, we can't tell you other than to use Google ;) Your ISO is corrupted I'm afraid.


5 Games. That is all that is left of the red demon.

Seriously!!?:blink:

Maybe he's using a Mac which uses a different calculation for file size. 1.46GB is normal size when using a Mac.

Windows uses the proper 1024MB = 1GB where as a Mac uses 1000MB = 1GB.

^As I said earlier in the thread, it's a known issue. For some reason, trimming that specific game with DMToolbox results in an oversized 1.46GB image for some reason. I had the same problem, it is one of the few untrimmed games I have.

I didn't see your post and I didn't see that he gave the bytes which would have canceled my theory but it should be known that not all people use Windows and a 1.46GB file size on a Mac is normal. I remember a while back when people were telling this person that his ISO was corrupt when it turned out he was using a Mac and his ISO was fine.

Can you try r214 and then r215 please. I am curious to see if the changes in r215 affect you.

    If your throat closes, putting oxygen in your mouth will not solve anything - as you will be introducing oxygen prior to the area of obstruction
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Just kiss me Kyle.
  • x65943 @ x65943:
    You either need to be intubated to bypass obstruction or create a stoma inferior to the the area of obstruction to survive

  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
    Keep them both
    separated or you'll have more PSUs each year.
  • K3N1 @ K3N1:
    Well one you insert one PSU into the other one you get power
  • JuanMena @ JuanMena:
