Emu Roms

[Genome]

sorry this is quasi-offtopic but is chankast working now? last time i was here (many months ago) chankast worked but it couldnt really support any dreamcast games. my questions i guess are. 1. does it work. 2 does it have cd-rom support. 3. how big are the isos

(sorry i went o/t there but i just had to ask. good luck getting your emu to work man)

I have to do this without having the emu now, so I hope my answers are correct
1. It works pretty good. It supports a lot of DC games already at good speed.
2. Don't know. Definately not GD-ROM, but perhaps CD-ROM.
3. The ISOs can be up to a bit above 1GB, since that's the capacity of a GD-ROM. Most games are around 700MB though (unpacked).

I agree with alco but I want to add something about question 2: It can perfectly run CD-ROMs (never GD-ROMs), I meant recorded ISOs on CD, even runs Utopia Boot Discs so non-selfbootable games might work this way. It makes no diference from emulated media on DT btw.

ok dude i clicked on that file in the ASPI or whatever thing and it works now loading in Chankast. the cds work now i dont get that error anymore and now i can mount the CDI file but is it supposed to load by itself or do i push start?

It's supposed to load by itself if it's self bootable. Check this thread for more info. A forum search would help too.
