hey guys hope you can help with this. i have the bios and flash in the same folder where chankast is. i have the game mounted on daemon tools and everything but when i try to start chankast it freezes on me. also the file name is "hydro_thunder.cdi" so im not sure if it has to do with the fact that its .cdi instead of .iso. this happens with both 0.2a and 0.25a me need help.
Perhaps the game it's not compatible with Chankast, not self-bootable or it's a Echelon release (has an intro that crashes the emulator). You can fix it if being not bootable it's the cause, make a little forum search ;)
i did do a forum search and all i found was to use utopia boot loader or something like that. but me no know how to use utopia or what the download is suppose to contain. so first question would be how do i use utopia and what is the download suppose to contain so i know i got the right file.
Take a look at these threads, you can find what to do and where to find the Utopia Boot Disc :cool:
To make it easier, here's Daemon Tools site
thanks i'll post once i get it working or if i come to another problem.
hey!! your a mod now when did that happen. congrats man!!
It was three days ago. Let's keep the site nice as now, thanks a lot for your support :)
Of course feel free to post your feedback about chankast. Hope it helps
alright first i tried another game which is .cdi aswell. the file name is DC dead or alive 2 LE (self).cdi. so im thinking its self bootable but im not sure. and i found this site that has a bunch of versions of utopia boot loader.
some of them are:Utopia DC BootCD Discjuggler Format.
the rest are like this but in diffrent formats. and im not really sure on what exactly im supposed to do after i download utopia.
Your DOA2 looks to be self boot, so it only needs to be mounted with Daemon Tools, and the virtual drive selected on Chankast, then start the emulation
About UBD, got the first version, no matter the format. Mount it, start Chankast with the emulated drive untill the loader screen it's shown. Now mount your ISO replacing the UBD previously mounted. Go to Chankast and enjoy :cool:
ok i tried to run DOA2 by mounting it on DT then i started the emulation. waited like
2 1/2 mins befores i decided it froze and it did. i went to click on the x button but nothing(a clear sign that it's frozen). im wondering if the plugin matter like CDrom interface xxx and the aspi one. does it matter which one i choose. i have the drive set to F: which is my DT drive so i really don't know what the problem is.
I'm not sure if DOA2 it's compatible with Chankast, I think not. Furthermore, every Echelon release it's not compatible with this emulator.
