When you say it will not load, you mean it won't start anymore? Or it start but copy/shrink isn't working anymore?

bman83 commented 4 years ago

Hi Lou,

Thanks for your email.

I found out the game "conflict zone" does not work when being shrunk. So the issue Occurred after your software processed "conflict zone" and then froze during the shrink process.

I restarted UGLY and then I could not process anymore files

Once again.

Thankyou for your work it's much appreciated.

Are you working on any other programs?

A SONY PS2 version of your UGLY software will be great

Thanks for the information, I'll make some tests with Conflict Zone to understand what went wrong and I'll keep you updated quickly. If you know in which folder it was copied, you could try to remove it for now.

Are you working on any other programs? I am not for now, but I might in the future. I would like to focus on the Dreamcast for the time being. I might try the PS2 as I have one, but I don't know when :/.

Hi Lou,

Thanks for the email.

I have been loading the games onto a gdemu, I downloaded the TOSEC rom set. I have been processing the USA NTSC files as they work best with VGA.

The following games also have issues when shrinking 1 CONFLICT ZONE 2 CHICKEN RUN (PAL) 3 DUCATTI WORLD 4 MATT HOFFMAN BMX 5 NIGHTMARE CREATURES 6 OMIKRON 7 BOTH SOUTHPARK GAMES.

When scrolling in the gdmenu 0.6 and you highlight the above games the screen goes black. I think that means the iso header is damaged when trying to load the disc image picture

If you could verify that the images are shrunk somehow that would be good.

Also if there was a function to show if the isos are compatible with VGA that would be good. There is a list here.

List of games that DON'T WORK with VGA Period:

21 - Two One Airforce Delta Black Matrix (game boots, sound is heard, no image is displayed) Caesar's Palace 2000 Cho Hatsumei Boy Kanipan: Bousou Robot no Nazo D Vine Luv Dance Dance Revolution 2nd Mix Dance Dance Revolution Club Version Dancing Blade Katteni Momo Tenshi II: Tears of Eden deSPIRIA Dino Crisis (menu can be force booted, but actual game crashes) E.S ECW Anarchy Rulz ECW Hardcore Revolution Eisei Meijin III: Game Creator Yoshimura Nobuhiro no Zunou Imperial no Taka: Fighter of Zero Jikkyo Powerful Pro Yakyu: Dreamcast Edition Jinsei Game For Dreamcast Jissen Pachislo Hissyouhou @ VPachi July King of Fighters '99 Dream Match King of Fighters '99 Evolution Kita He - Photo Memories Konohana 2: Todoka Nai Requiem Konohana: True Report L.O.L - Lack of Love Langrisser Millennium Last Blade 2 Mahjong Taikai II Special MTV Skateboarding Nanatsu no Hikan Senritsu no Hohoemi Nijyuei Nobunaga no Yabou: Reppuuden Nobunaga no Yabou: Shouseiroku Plasma Sword Psychic Force 2012 Psychological Game Rayblade Ring Terror's Realm Rune Caster Sangokushi VI With Power Kit Soul Fighter Sunrise Eiyuutan Tanaka Torahiko no Urutoraryu Syogi Ibisyaanaguma Hen Winning Post 4 Program 2000 World Neverland 2 Plus: The Waktic Republic of Pluto WWF Attitude Yukyu Gensokyoku 3: Perpetual Blue Yumebaken '99 Internet

I've added a timeout to avoid this problem with non working games with an error recommending the user to copy the game without shrinking. I've contacted the developer of gditools and he is unsure of why this happens for now.

I might make a blacklist to warn the user against shrinking the list of games which are known as not working.

Louhike commented 4 years ago

It won't fix the problem but at least the program won't crash anymore.

Louhike commented 4 years ago

And it will be released with 0.6.2 version.

bman83 commented 4 years ago

Hi Lou I tested the games they work when not shrunk

Louhike commented 4 years ago

I unfortunatly can't see your capture. They do no work when you try to launch them on GDEmu? Or is it the tool which failed? I just tried with some of them and had no problem.

Thanks for the feedback!
