Patching GDI images

What do you need by the console output of selfboot.bat ? Do you want the selfboot.nrg ?

 

Oh I see, the log how can I copy the text when I press any bouton it's closed like the writting text at the end...

 

Try running it from a console and outputting the text in a file like this: "selfboot.bat >> log.txt"
I don't use windows often anymore so I'm not sure exactly.

 

It's ok :

FG's SB DATA Pack! - SELFBOOT v1.4 - All-32bit edition

This .bat Will create a 45000LBA data/data
backup from extracted files with no need
to apply LBA hacks to the bins. However
some non-LBA based copy protection might need
to be cracked in order for the backup to works.
GO to the DCRipping Database for a list of
copy protections.
http://www.bucanero.com.ar/dreamcast/ripdb/?

Put around 65 megs in the data1 folder and
ALL the files in the data folder Duplicated
files will be burnt only once.

You can add a 0.0 dummy file in data to accelarate
loadings, it won't apear in the filesystem.

The ip.bin must be in the root folder.

This program will hack an
IP.BIN to a 45000 LBA and
won't modify the BOOT.BIN

If LBA.BIN is detected it
will hack the BOOT.BIN in
CDDA mode to the LBA stated
in LBA.BIN

If WINCEOS is detected it
will hack the BOOT.BIN in
WINCEOS mode.

The BOOT.BIN specified in
the IP.BIN must be in the

That looks very normal. Maybe just try to use an older version of daemon tools, maybe they dropped support for such old nrg format. I use a daemon tools lite 4.30.4.0027 in a XP vm and it works well.

Bonne chance!

PS:

You shoul put a quote environment around the console text, to make it less clunky in the thread.

 

Thanks for your help again. I'll try with this version of daemon tool.
I don't see what do you mean in your last sentence
If you or someone else have time to have a look here my selfboot.nrg with 1st_read.bin ppf patch and orginal patch like give japanese cake and the ip.bin modified by the great megavolt's tool :
http://frd.li/e12b52db2917679f8e4aa180a9cb4140
here the .cdi ppf patched with cdi4dc :
http://frd.li/e1f1dce924069abd2b0351d72cac9d73
and finally the .cdi file with patch "original" :
http://frd.li/e1f1dce924069abd2b0351d72cac9d73

Now I try to build some .gdi maybe it will work like this, after all, the patch is for gdi's file.
I will try my best ;-)

 

I meant to put the text in a quote environment, like

You don't need to change the flags in the IP. BIN if you use binhack32 BTW, it does it for you.

 

When I patched the CDI images, I extracted the image so I had all the files I then replaced the 1st_read.bin with the scrambled version included in the download, hex edited the extracted ip.bin (added the 1) then used bootmake to build a new CDI using the ip.bin that was extracted, burned it and that it.

I done it when he first released the patches, I also patched the GDI version for my UGC.

 

Ah ok family guy I do like

Thanks for your proceeding, I did the same as you I think. I used GDI2DATA for exctracting the files. Do you use another one ?
But normally we must have the same files... I do like you said again maybe I have forgot something, now I know the 1st_read.bin patch is ok.

 

I tried to patch recv and it works at the first time.
I think my files are not patchable...
I have a last favor, could send me or put in firedrop (for a short time) your soa patch version please ?

 

Japanese_cake did it ^^ all the games patched are here :
https://mega.nz/#F!g0QWlJgI!qfUWBc8sNoubMZ1CeBV0vg

Hurry up ! He probably not left the games a long time.
Enjoy !

 

Of course I have found my way when the complete patch version is available ^^

 

I know this is a tad off topic, but I have been poking and prodding around in my gdi dump of PSOv2 and I have been trying to see which locations to apply the PSO-Patcher-v2 patches to force the image to connect to Sylverant and avoid the Hunter License check. I have looked around in the source for the strings to hex edit in so I can just hex the new values in before rebuilding the gdi. Any suggestions or is there any one out there that have done this already? Using boot and swap discs with GDEmu, in general, is a pain.

 

The patches are located in patches.h of the source code. But they are memory addresses, not locations on the disc. Some of the addresses could be referencing locations in 1ST_READ.BIN, but I don't think any of them are because most of the PSOv2 addresses in patches.h are in the 0x8C32xxxx range, but 1ST_READ.BIN is typically loaded at 0x8c010000 in most games. Unless PSO loads it's 1ST_READ somewhere different from normal DC games, those patches probably require a patcher that can modify memory.

Such a patcher doesn't exist yet, because if it did people would be using it to pre-patch games with widescreen.

 

The 1st_read.bin can be a few MBs though, so this address could be in it.

IIRC, the binaries are encrypted/obfuscated so you can't plainly see the server address, but the version that was made for dc-talk is in clear text. That might not help you to make a patched gdi, but it might be a good source of info for someone trying to reverse engineer the binaries to do so.

 

Do you still have this tool? I'm looking to add some RGB patches in

 

It's called RebuildGDI and can be found there: http://sheep.host22.com/

PS: I'm working on a similar feature for gditools, that won't extract the data though. But now you gave me the idea to allow patching the 1st_read.bin on the fly, as long as its size doesn't change!

 

I fixed the link, I moved to my google drive a while ago and forgot to update the link :$

 

Need some help. I would like to patch gdi images with the widescreen codes and play it with GDEMU. So my question is how do you I know from the posted widescreen codes here which hex value should I change and which hex value should I use?

For example:

MSR Widescreen
02106B5C - 3F99999A
021111F4 – 3F900000

 

I am not sure but I found a tool who can change your ip.bin without use hexedit and you can change the widescreen inside.
I find it and I'll give you. I hope it can help you.
