Activision Classics PS2 Extraction With Duckstation + Script #151

Open mjBrickman opened 3 months ago

mjBrickman commented 3 months ago

Using Duckstation, I ran games within Activision Classics and dumped the RAM to a file for each game as [game].bin. I then altered a script I found online for the PC version to work with the PS1 version. Here is my altered script below:

#!/bin/bash
for f in *.bin; do
        g="${f%%.bin}"
        for len in 2048 4096 8192 16384; do
                count=$((len/4))
                dd if="$f" of=out/"$g.$len" skip=163073 bs=4 count="$count"
        done

done

I ran the script under WSL2 and used No-Intro's database and matched up the output sizes to find the correct game files. The original script and info is in the link below. https://forums.atariage.com/topic/336118-how-to-extract-roms-from-the-activision-anthology-for-pc-and-a-request-for-info-on-the-included-roms/
