Dreamcast Ressurrection - 2009 (since 2008)

Check snesorama.us forums for more releases

I couldn't find the original RARsets of this game, so I had to do something I don't like: use unknown sources. Well, I downloaded a random image set of the of discs on internet and unpacked files. Then I downloaded the GD dumps and unpacked files. Using CRC to compare the files, I found out that the files were the same of the GD (so not corrupted), except 1st_read.bin (of course, it needs to be modified in order to boot from CD) and some video files that were downsampled. In disc 1, only opening video was downsampled. In disc 2, some more. So I watched the downsampled videos to guarantee they were playing until the end. After that, I could conclude my files were okay. So I burned the game with correct file order (same of GD), putting extras files in beggining and a little dummy file to fill the CD.

Features of my release:
- Not corrupted files.
- Correct file order, what means faster loadings and less noise of Dreamcast reader.
- Selfboot.
- Dummied for 700mb CDs. Extras files of course were put in dummy area. Note that dummy file is very small, so it won't make a big difference on loading times.

About the game:
- It has VGA Box support.

Other comments:
- Some videos were downsampled (not for me) to fit CD. The original files (not downsampled) from the videos are in a separated folder in this release. I don't know what you would want to do with them, but I like to make complete releases so there they are.
- CD part of GD had some extra .txt files. They were put in "EXTRAS" folder of each disc, together with the audio warning track. Another useless thing, but made only to make release complete.
- Release comes with manual and covers.

Our releases are for Dreamcast console. If you use emulator, this release will work, but it will work exactly like any other release (except that you have guarantee for no corrupted files). If you play in emulator, I recommend you to try GD dumps instead. If you play in console, you'll notice a nice improvement in this release compared to others.

That's my second release, I hope to make more soon.
