Hi, I would like to create an account here to document my dumps.

I own over 1500+ physical games for various disc-based consoles that would be of interest for this database (PC, 3DO, SS, DC, PS1, PS2, PS3, PS4, PS5, PSP, XBOX, 360, ONE, XSX, GC, WII, WIIU).

I already went through the Redump Project DB and there are several game versions that I own which aren't listed in the DB. And many more that are awaiting a 2nd dump to go from "Blue" status to "Green" status.

I would start by focusing on my PS3 and PSP dumps given that your dumping rules for other platforms are just ridiculous (like using CFW Plextor drives to dump most CD/DVD stuff). What a shame because I have some very rare undocumented 3DO and PS2 stuff that just won't ever be accepted on this database if I am forced to purchase these extremely expensive disc drives. But anyways, I already have enough PS3 and PSP stuff that this database is missing therefore it already makes sense to create an account just for these two in the meantime.

Hey there, it sounds like you have a great collection of games and an interest to help.  I will do everything I can to support you here.

First, I'm very sorry for the inconvenience but our site is having issues with hotmail / outlook, and also gmail accounts.  If you can please try again with a different e-mail address, we can get you added.  If you need a free and easy one, we know that protonmail works. https://proton.me/

As for the plextor drive requirement, if you have a serious interest in contributing, I can help you out with sourcing a drive and/or assist with the purchase, and/or try to help coordinate the preservation of the rare games you have.  There are a number of ways in which we can assist you here.

Please let me know if you have any other questions, and/or reach out in the discord (if you'd like), where I can help even further:

If you don't have/use discord, I can assist you on here or via e-mail.

Thank you for your interest!

For the record, you can use pretty much any DVD drive to dump (most) DVD games. OG Xbox games are an exception.

http://wiki.redump.org/index.php?title= … 2F_DVD-ROM

DVD-Video and DVD-ROM dumping is supported with virtually ANY drive that supports the DVD format. For your first dump/submission, please dump twice to verify matching hashes for any potentially misbehaving DVD-ROM drives.

You're very much right about CDs, though.

I will not create a new email just for Redump. I want it to stay at only one email. Do you know how long it could take before that hotmail/outlook issue gets fixed?

It is unclear how long.  What I've done, is used the one you signed up with for now.  Please click the link below - if you don't receive the e-mail (may go to spam), let me know as I can always e-mail you directly with a sign-on password -- you just may not get e-mail notifications from the site directly.

Welcome, obtain your password here.
(check the spam folder in case there will be no message in your inbox)

Please make sure you read and understand the dumping process and the way you have to submit the dumping logs before posting your dump info.

Thanks, since you have already created my account, I'm now using the "LeoneFamily(alt)" temporary username.

I used the link you provided but didn't get any email. If you'd be willing to do that other method to e-mail me directly that would be appreciated.

I so far have already started dumping discs for the last 2 days using the offical methods & guides, so I'll post a bunch of submissions all at once when my account gets created. So far I have 23 discs dumped (and dumping the 24th as I'm writing this).

Thank you.  I'll e-mail you login information.

IMPORTANT:  It's great that you've been dumping and it seems to have been going well!  Please submit just one submission the very first time, via the forum, so we can review and help provide feedback if anything needs to be updated or done differently.  Once we help there, then you can submit all the rest and we can move forward. 

Thank you and I'll be in touch!

Alrighty - I've e-mailed you your login information as well as some other tips and information.  Just let me know if you don't get that or if you have any questions.

The best place to get future assistance is in our Discord.

However, once you get your account setup, you can use the forum for questions as well if you need.

Thanks!
