I found this util called vmutool recently and haven't tried it yet but supposedly it'll do the trick. http://sf.gds.tuwien.ac.at/v/vm/vmutool/ Make sure you get the latest version (070) and post how it works for you.

I'm not sure about the dat files, but most images on the DC are stored on pvr format, which is the PowerVR chipset's native texture format. I think there are a couple of utils to convert these images to bmp. I'll post a link if I find one.

haha thanks a lot for the suggestion!! I had visited my nearest gamestop just a couple of days ago and they only had a few genesis games, but after reading your post I decided to give it a shot again and voila! this time they had a nice selection, mostly crap, but I did manage to find phantasy...

That's exactly what I thought when I first saw them, but since one of the boxes is written in Japanese, I'd figure it's geared towards the Japanese market and as far as I know, Japan has a VERY strict policy on illegal stuff. Besides, not only does the box have a sega logo, it also says...

Sorry for the late reply, I just found this thread while looking at older posts... anyway, are you still interested in the song? I have it as an mp3 and I'm sure it's in a CDR lying somewhere around Let me know and I'll look for it and upload it somewhere.

here, I finally found the links to the pics: Thanks for the TecToy link, Curtis. I already checked their website and the mega drive 3 they sell seems to be a completely different thing from the one above... I wonder if these things are actually legit... and if they work with normal md/gen...

The other day, while surfing a hong kong game retailer's site I found two megadrive models that caught my eye. One of them was called "megadrive 21" and the other one "mega drive 3" and looked like cheap dreamcast controllers with several genesis games built into the controller itself. But what...

so basically if you're in the US, you have to pay $25 for a crappy planetweb browser that should be almost free to begin with, and if you're in Europe you actually get PSOv2 for free along with the browser!!??!! haha what's sega of america thinking about??

I don't think it'd be possible to remove the z80 from the genesis architecture and still keep most games running properly. Quite a few games poll the z80 every now and then and if they don't get a response they'll just hang waiting for it.

hmmm.. I didn't know the Saturn has a 68k... I'm sort of an enthusiast about this kind of stuff but by no means an expert. What does the Saturn use it for anyway?? sound?

Yeah, the sound emulation is pretty bad, and the games run in an interlaced video mode which makes them look funny. When I first heard about the Smash Pack I had huge expectations for it. I guess they could have done a better job considering it's a commercial emulator. ??? I thought Sega would...

It takes about half an hour to dump an ISO from a GD using a program called bbrip or something like that (imagine the strain your DC's laser is put through). After that, depending on the game, it can get pretty tough to make it into a playable CDR, as you may have to hack the executables to...

X'Eye Great!! That's exactly the info I was looking for!! Thanks!!

I'm not an expert at CloneCD formats but I *think* that it stores CD images as a standard 2352 bytes/sector file with an .img suffix and the extended subchannel data in a separate file with a different extension, so as you said the .img file format should be exactly the same as a .bin file from...

X'Eye Thanks for the clue. I did try using the search function before posting the question, but no results were found; try searching for "x'eye" and nothing will come up. Anyway, my main question isn't about the AC adapter but about the TV hookups. I haven't been able to find out what type of...

X'Eye Hi everyone. A friend is selling his X'Eye but he lost both the AC Adapter and the TV hookup cables... since I have absolutely no idea about the x'eye, I guess it's not a big deal finding an AC that'll work with it but what about the TV hookups?? Does anyone happen to know what type it...

As far as I know, the only real difference between MS corporate versions and standard versions of their programs is the type of product keys they accept. XP corp edition is supposed to be installed with certain corporate keys that bypass the activation process so that network administrators can...

About 6 months ago, I ordered a replacement lens assembly for my old PSX and another one for my DC from lan-kwei as they were the only place where I could find them in stock. I also ordered a couple of cheap DC hookup cables and had everything shipped via EMS. I received the package a week later...
