redump.info Forum

<r>A forum I was a member of died. There was a thread on there for a GC / Wii compression tool called, I believe, nNASOS. The original tool was NASOS / Not Another Shrinker or Scrubber. I believe this was made by Redump moderator <URL url="https://forum.redump.info/user/3/"><s>[url=https://forum ...

<t>Great tool. If there was a way to put a batch of ISOs through it, and after "compressing" each one, put each .dec file back through the program (in RAM) and verify the reformed ISO matches a certain (Redump) hash, it would be almost perfect. It doesn't have to follow that exact process, but I do ...

<r>No ****ing way. How did you determine the algorithm? Do you plan on releasing the source code?<br/>
<br/>
My go-to for testing was going to be Animal Crossing, but it seems like I don't have any untouched images lying around. I've already used them for various tests.<br/>

So I dug up <URL ...

GPack does / did something similar. It's open-source too.

No clue how you can get it into the Redump DB, but the GameCube parent/clone dat is 95% done. Only thing missing is the multi-game demos.

I'm with Ecco. There should be a naming standard for the generic titles.

<r>Some of these may be from Wii games. Check if the disc code matches a GC game.<br/>

These stupid Ultimate Codes discs are rare, but ...

<t>Once again, the idea that Redump.org would switch from 1:1 dumps to something else is absurd. It would create much more trouble than it is worth, even from the point of view that nothing is lost when scrubbing.<br/>
<br/>
This thread was not created to sway Redump.org policy to something else. I ...

<t>Oh really? Redump.org has no intentions of scrubbing anything? Never would have thought of that. >_><br/>
<br/>
I have no intentions of changing redump.org policy. It would be nice, but it would have several downsides. I'm guessing "no scrubbing" is a subset of "disc preservation". I thought it'd ...

Where should I have posted this? I posted in "General discussion: Dumping, soft, emulation etc. ". Isn't this related to "dumping" and "emulation"?

edit: I see the error of my ways.
