I recommend you always getting my releases of my uploads in the forums above, because sometimes I release fixes or re-launch some games that have problems. If you get my uploads you'll be sure of having the latest releases. Additionally, you'll get the original package, not images made from discs, so you'll be sure that nothing is corrupted. =================================================================================================== -------------------------------------------------- Sword Of The Berserk: Guts' Rage (NTSC-U) *Repack* -------------------------------------------------- Ripped: Nothing. Downsampled: 2 videos; 44khz audio -> 32khz. Source: GD dump. === ATTENTION: === You need to execute the "unpack.bat" before burning, it will unpack the .ecm file and create your .cdi image. If you need to apply any patch, do it in the unpacked .cdi file, not in the .ecm file. ================== I didn't give enough attention to the last release and really have messed things up. This is a much better one, so if you like this game and have the old release, grab this one now. Read the old readme below before keep reading this one. The encoder I was using was not very good about dark scenes, so I've used a much better one and difference in videos shouldn't be noticeable anymore. EI**S video in the beggining was already crappy in the original, so don't blame me for that. Data is loaded on-the-fly, nothing to do about the annoying reader's sound? Wrong. File order was adjusted wisely, and audio was downsampled to 32khz. You hardly will notice any difference in audio, even if you're using a good sound system. You will however notice a great improvement in performance: much less reader's noise. Downsampling audio was not an easy choice, but now playing the game I'm pretty sure it was the better thing to do. PAL users, this game will already boot in 60hz on your consoles. Have fun. Features of my release: - Not corrupted files at all, it was made with GD dump files. - Used custom DCRES optimization techniques. It means faster loadings and less Dreamcast reader noise. - Selfboot. About the game: - It has VGA Box support. Other comments: - "Extras" folder in the pack contains some useless stuff. - Release comes with manual and covers. =================== OLD RELEASE README: =================== -------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- DDDDDDDDDDDDD CCCCCCCCCCCCCRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR D::::::::::::DDD CCC::::::::::::CR::::::::::::::::R D:::::::::::::::DD CC:::::::::::::::CR::::::RRRRRR:::::R DDD:::::DDDDD:::::D C:::::CCCCCCCC::::CRR:::::R R:::::R D:::::D D:::::D C:::::C CCCCCC R::::R R:::::R eeeeeeeeeeee ssssssssss D:::::D D:::::DC:::::C R::::R R:::::R ee::::::::::::ee ss::::::::::s D:::::D D:::::DC:::::C R::::RRRRRR:::::R e::::::eeeee:::::eess:::::::::::::s D:::::D D:::::DC:::::C R:::::::::::::RR e::::::e e:::::es::::::ssss:::::s D:::::D D:::::DC:::::C R::::RRRRRR:::::R e:::::::eeeee::::::e s:::::s ssssss D:::::D D:::::DC:::::C R::::R R:::::Re:::::::::::::::::e s::::::s D:::::D D:::::DC:::::C R::::R R:::::Re::::::eeeeeeeeeee s::::::s D:::::D D:::::D C:::::C CCCCCC R::::R R:::::Re:::::::e ssssss s:::::s DDD:::::DDDDD:::::D C:::::CCCCCCCC::::CRR:::::R R:::::Re::::::::e s:::::ssss::::::s D:::::::::::::::DD CC:::::::::::::::CR::::::R R:::::R e::::::::eeeeeeee s::::::::::::::s D::::::::::::DDD CCC::::::::::::CR::::::R R:::::R ee:::::::::::::e s:::::::::::ss DDDDDDDDDDDDD CCCCCCCCCCCCCRRRRRRRR RRRRRRR eeeeeeeeeeeeee sssssssssss --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- =================================================================================================== Dreamcast Resurrection - 2009 (since 2008) =================================================================================================== Check for more releases at these forums (search for user "TuxTheWise"): snesorama.us (all releases, see my signature) segahub.org (recent releases) dreamcast-talk.com (recent releases) =================================================================================================== NOTE: I've seen some people uploading my releases in other servers.

Downsampled: 2 videos. Source: GD dump. Two videos had too high bitrates. They were re-encoded with a lower (but still high) bitrate so they can be played in full speed on a CD-R. I tried to optimize file order to reduce reader movement, but there was not much to be done since this game stream data on-the-fly. Enjoy this nice Dreamcast production. Features of my release: - Not corrupted files at all, it was made with GD dump files. - Dummied for 700mb CDs. - Used custom file order. - Selfboot. About the game: - It has VGA Box support.
