Another Dreamcast ISO thread...

Post by wclem »

I am trying to burn these ISO's and of course some are larger than CD. Anyone out there wanna lend a bit of advise on how to handle these? Point me to the right thread or such. Or just answer here LOL. Thanks guys...


Also, is there a boot disc/ gameshark combined disc out there?

Unfortunately, You're going to have to use downsampled versions of the games if you want to fit them on CD-Rs. Usually this means compressed/removed audio files and FMVs for any game over 700MB.

If you're using 700 meg CDs and you're fetching rips, they should be fine. Make sure your burning software isn't set to only be expecting 650 meg CDs and burn at 4X. I you really are finding downloads that haven't been downsized already, jut look elsewhere.

Maybe this will clear things for you:

The search always does the trick.

Maybe you could specify more on the ISOs, where you got them and their sizes.

For the second question maybe this will help:
