IIRC both Daemon Tools and Alcohol needed SPTD to work. SPTD had issues with my burners, that why I moved to Virtual Clone Drive.

Re-Volt already had the correct data. The latest change only affected some discs. All those discs are fixed now:

Re-Volt only had the correct data because I sent you the sub file from cdtool or have you forgotten? DIC wasn't able to create the intention file for it, now it can.

Tried again with the new version. Here's the intention file output: https://pastebin.com/6L0DfLeK

I'll try to test it tonight to see if dumps correctly now.

Sarami, I submitted a feature request on github on December 30th, but never got any replies. Should I repost it here?

Hello

There are 35 pages of replies here and I'll go back through a few of them (more if i can find a thread search tool), but I figured I'd take a short-cut and ask directly:

I mainly try to dump game system discs (Saturn, PS1, PS2, Dreamcast, SegaCD, NeoGeoCD, 3DO).  I saw no specific instructions for any of those formats EXCEPT dreamcast.

Am I to understand that I just need to follow the CD dump guide with nothing else needed in order to produce Redump verifiable dumps?

Did you read the readme.txt that came with DIC?

What influence does a virtual image mounted in Daemon Tools have in your physical drive?

The only way I can imagine this being done without a trap disc is with a hacked firmware for the drive.

Sarami: And you could not implement the trap disc in the program for "gd" option?
That way we forget about having to do the swap.

I'm quite positive that's impossible. The idea of the trap disc is to fool the drive into thinking there's a 99 min CD in.

How can you fool the drive without swapping?

Of course they'll "fall through the cracks" if only the first page of that forum is looked into.

@mods: Seriously, if you're already going to waste precious time of your life to add some dumps, please go from oldest to newest. The dumpers have also wasted their precious time to post the info.

PS: I'm not even talking about any of my dumps. It just bothers me that redumps that aren't even a week old are being added while 2+ years redumps are just forgotten there.

Is there any particular reason for new verifications to be added before the ones from 2014?

tossEAC, is a drill really necessary or can it be done by hand?

What about DIC?

I'm just quoting Yori Yoshizuki here:

Could someone write at redump.org forum

these entries are dupes:

Beneath a Steel Sky (USA) (En,Fr,De,Es,It,Pt,Sv) (Alt)

Demon Gate (USA) (v1.2) (666) (Alt)

Final Fantasy VII (USA) (Disc 3) (Alt)

Just convert them from bin+cue to iso

then strip them down 307200 bytes

and voilà same as main dumps.

I haven't whole USA collection to check.

Usually many single bin+cue entries are overdumped with 307200 bytes.

Proggies used are not always exact with extraction.

My two cents

My plextor can't dump this disc and my other drives don't support d8 command, so I can't use the /rc option in DIC.
I'm trying to dump the disc with CD Manipulator to see if I can get consistent results.

What is the proper way to dump Safedisc games that have corrupted sectors outside of the protection range (because of scratches on the disc)? If I use DIC without the /rc option or CDManipulator without the Ignore read errors, will it work?

I didn't reject your idea at all. Actually, I got pretty mad once when I saw tons of new discs being added when there were a couple of my verifications just seating there completely ignored.

What I said was: it's possible that the people who coded the site at the very beginning are not around anymore and/or may not have the time to code a new functionality.

I actually don't know who were the people in charge of coding back then, but I don't think they were the same people that updated the database.

I kind of don't believe that. Someone coded what we have now on this website. Is that person gone? Doesn't this project belong to all the same people that have been around forever? And if they have time to add new discs and a verification every now and then, they have time to code the forms, even if it's over the course of a long time and they do almost nothing else with the site. Sure the site slows down even more for a time, but the result is that it speeds up tremendously FOREVER, PERMANENTLY.

Yes, someone coded this site before, but that was almost 10 years ago. The people who coded it may not be the same that add dumps to the db and could easily be gone now. This is speculation on my part, but, for sure, a lot can change in a person's life in a decade.

I agree that there should be a verification form just like there is a new disc form.
I think the problem is that there's no one to code that among the mods/admins or, if there is, they just don't have the time.

If your discs have different types of protection, you can't just use a standard bat file for dumping.
