Ok guys , I've my first psx intro/demo almost done, now I need to test it on the real hardware! I bought some times ago a gameshark and I've flashed it with caetla , but eventually I realized that the par port of this Gs i broken, so I don't want to spend 20$+postage to get a new Gs. I'm sick to waste a cd for every time I have to test my code on real hardware, so I've find this " Multisession Exe Loader v0.3 ", a little program coded by Loser (back in 2001). This is a great tool that make u able to use 1 cd up to 45 times (in multi session) , but I can't find a proper way o burn my multisession disk OH: Everytime I burn a cd my psx seems that it is capable to recognize only the first session :/ have anybody tried this and got it to works ? PS: This program is tested in cdrwin 4 , but this piece of s..oftware is incompatible with my burner :evil:
PS1 and PS2 retail units are supposed to read only silver discs. What made you think SONY would bother with adding multisession support on the PS CD/DVD drives ? (I mean even the debugger/devkit versions) :shrug: So, that won't work at all...
wasnt something with "not" closing sessions ? I dunno, ive read it somewhere infesticating xbox dvd's. nothing to do with it, but is a serial connection or memorycard good? btw, is it posible to store small apps on a memory card? I mean, demoscene is also about small size
You Are wrong man , The multisession support is emulated in The "multisession exe loader" ... I'm not a noob Some years ago i've used this program and I remember that it worked with cdrwin .. Now that i can't use cdrwin , i can't get it to work.
gotta be honest mate i've never heard of a PSX being able to read multi-session discs and as far as im aware the tool that loser from Paradox released was for booting multiple executables from a menu (like a demo disc or multi-game game disc) and not for booting executables from other sessions in the disc
I think that once the OP realizes that what is making the drive only see the first session of the disc is the PLAYSTATION CD-ROM drive firmware he will stop arguing. :shrug:
Dunno , I remember that I've used this with cdrwin some years ago and it worked :/ Btw, this is not an important thing , I can still code and test my intro with an emulator Anyway , thank you oliveira and co.
Yah that's the idea... Just making you not waste time with something that isn't really likely to work. :thumbsup:
Avanaboy is right though, I remember reading about this back in the day... I'm pretty sure people used it. Please don't insist, it's not like Loser isn't (equally) knowledgeable on PSX dev.
