The v0.2 of the tool, that works with ISOS, for the moment supports all ISOS except JJK-160 and 33S-2 which have different CD structures than JJK-140 and 33S-1 respectively. This will be updated soon.
Regarding what contains every CD, CD2 contains always what can't fit in CD1 following this rule:
20 --> 10
50 --> 30
60 --> 40
That means that IF target CD has no file 20, 2nd CD will have file 20 in the position of 10. However if target CD has 20 it will go in CD1.
i.e. if we want to play JOJOBA on a JOJO cartridge, the 1st CD will have correct files 10,20,30,31,40 and 41 (meaning SIMMS 1,2,3 and 4).
From the 2nd CD only interest us the files 50 and 51 which will be located in position of 30 and 31 (SIMM 3).
To make it correctly, install first CD2 (will update SIMM3) replace SIMM3 with an new one, update using CD1 and place the SIMM3 extracted in the 1st update into position SIMM5. Notice that in both updates we should keep something in SIMM5, for the BIOS to let us upgrade.
I hope it's clear now :)

@Ian, thanks for list.
ReplyDeleteCome on guys, we need those missing dumps. Check your CPS III sets and let us know if you have any of the missing ones.
I have a bunch of original JoJo's Venture and New Generation CD's, is there a quick way to tell what version exact version you have?
ReplyDeleteSee the red arrow in this picture:

I believe this should be the fastest way to identify the game version.
Even better would be to insert the CD in a computer and check the CD's name.
Yes, the centre ring on the CD is the best place to check, or the disc name if you put the disc in a PC.
ReplyDeleteBear in mind that I am unsure of the exact codes for discs that have not been dumped.
So if you have a CD with a code number that is *not* listed in the "dumps we have" lists above, then it's almost certainly a revision that is needed. ;)
I converted SF33 to work with JBA's cart : the result is 2 ISO images with exactly the same silenames. What does this mean ? Aren't the files supposed to have different names (for different SIMMs) ? After flashing CD1, the game starts but backgrounds are garbled.

ReplyDeleteI converted the SF33 ISO to run with JBA cart. The result is 2 ISO containing files with exactly the same names on both discs. What does this mean ? What is the thing with the "92" and "93" files ? Do I have to "upload" both discs ? I guess all this makes the "simm swap" trick a bit more complicated). Anyway, once CD1 is uploaded, the game starts but backgrounds are garbled. I didn't find anything helpful in the readme file. (oh and BTW, the link to download the tool does not work, we have a "please wait" indefinitely).
