I disagree sad The thing is that some games could be of different versions, also have some different audio track hashes, and if you dump the cd not completely, it could be that your damaged tracks differs from the other discs and you would not notice it !

It's a pity, because I have some damaged discs in my own too (some of them just the last track), but they must be in a good condition to add them to the database. We want to have clean system/db, and it is more important than quick dump collecting.

Moreover, I am also one of few German guys tongue and will get some more other German games in next time, so don't worry about it wink

If they have German or French or etc. they should be titled as on the cover in specified Language.
But should the title be added with wrong title, mods will change it wink

Well, I see, you will also separate different media types.

If there are no combined media, then I would also welcome your idea too, also CD / DVD / BD / etc. big_smile

Nevertheless, this is no real reason!? We everybody are also no twins too big_smile

But seriously, if there should be later "Media Description Files" for DVD-9 or BLU-RAY dumps (I do not mean MDS files),
would you want to separate them then also from DVD-5?

Yes, I have still never seen such a thing too, but who knows maybe there are such exotic games?

But, what's the reason to split CD and DVD in two dats?

The button that says 'Start Comprasion' - should that be 'Start Compression'?

I saw that too, but...he can fix it in his final version smile

If you take a file/files out of the directory that the program hasnt compressed yet, it makes a 32kb 7z file for each one

yeah, the loop function should be fixed...

great big_smile

just one thing, I believe current settings in your tool let 7z compress images as solid archive ?!
that could be a problem if you will rename file names later after compression if the db name changes !?

what do you think?

Maybe it's best to always use the serial on the label of the disc, and to list multiple serials in case several editions have the same checksums. And only list version numbers for different serial games in the database, not add them to the filename in the dat.

that is it what I have tried to say !

Anyway, I'm not gonna interfere with this. If anyone is gonna change stuff from now on, please make sure Dremora is aware of it, so that at least there's some sense in what's happening and more than 1 people are aware of the changes that are made.

agreed !

And what's if the game contains several Discs and they are of different format CD/DVD ?
Then they shall not be found any more in the same DAT !?

not that I squander ps2gamer2k7

you have just to use psxt001z --track function to find offset, and than you can use this in EAC to extract all other tracks.
but the problem is just, sometimes offset is different for some tracks, gaps are rare, gaps includes garbage,
or the fact that worst ones is, that tracks could be cut off (often track2 or last track) !

The file above is not compressed with ur tool, so decompress and compress it again for right checksums.

P.S. if u check the Paradox DB file, u will see that the strings are decrypted and so u can see a path (line 93) to ur project files wink
       I have accepted that this tool of made by You ))
