This is the problem, you need this DC Bios file first, and also dc_flash.bin. It has been ask many times, a forum search would help you, and now Google too :cool:

You're using "Inplut Interface xxx". If you want the plugins used on the help file, go "Plugins" -> "Input Plugins" -> "Input Interface by ElSemi".

Btw, do you know the people here have a real life too? Also, please don't make 4 post in a row, ok :rolleyes:

insert game disc
is there any link where its explained how to use daemon tools correctly?

No problem :cool:

Your game should be a non self-bootable DC ISO image. You need to download the Utopia Boot Disc, make a forum or google search to find it. I recommend you the CloneCD image.

Once you got it, you need to mount the UBD image first, then Start emulation. The UBD will show some funny screen, now mount your DC ISO image (your game) instead the UBD, wait some seconds, and hopefullly the game will boot

UBD it's Utopia Boot Disc as you know now :p

The .cdi extensions it's from Padus DiscJuggler and should work with Daemon Tools, but looks the UBD image from CloneCD works better with Chankast and Daemon Tool
What I said about CloneCD was the type of the UBD ISO (a .ccd, .img and .sub files), but it doesn't matter if it works for you as the CloneCD images also works on Daemon Tools.

Btw I'm not sure if you're talking about you DC (real hardware) or Chankast now, anyway the usage of the UBD is more or less the same. Just by the case, you have to boot this CD or image first it on your DC / emulator if the game it's not self bootable: If the burnt CD / image doesn't boot when try to play it, most probably it's not a self boot CD / image so need to insert/emulate the UBD then swap disc/images

I think your game it's either not correctly burnt on a CD, the image it's corrupted or it has some intro stuff that prevents it from working (this case for Chankast only).

It's not worth it. I got Marvel vs Capcom 2 working but it ran at about 15 - 22 fps.

You mean DC image ;) not rom.
Yeah, it's correct. Mostly of the image dc game files are .cdi and .cue, .bin.
