Redump Forum

<r><QUOTE author="pohclan"><s>[quote=pohclan]</s>I'm sorry, but because the Dumping guide mentions that the software needs the dat file in order to dump the game I haven't tried yet.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>

CleanRip doesn't require the datfile for dumping (every dump I have made has been done ...

<r>You don't actually need the datfile in order to dump games. Also, in case you can't get the datfile from Redump, CleanRip lets you download a Wii datfile that's publicly hosted on a different server. The only problem with not having the datfile is that you won't know whether something is a new ...

<r><QUOTE author="Chrll"><s>[quote=Chrll]</s>Once I get the Dumper status, should I resubmit them on the New Disc form? Because otherwise they are not searchable in the disc database.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>

No, you shouldn't resubmit dumps that you already have submitted. When you submit a dump on ...

<r>I believe the serial and version fields were added as a response to a request I made this year: <URL url="/viewtopic.php?t=16965"><s>[url=/viewtopic.php?t=16965]</s>/viewtopic.php?t=16965 … n-dolphin/<e>[/url]</e></URL><br/>

Or maybe you just meant I could include links to the miss lists for the user to ...

<t>I suppose I could add a notice if you try to verify a disc that isn't in redump, but I don't know of a reliable way to distinguish between legit GameCube discs that should be in redump and custom homebrew GameCube discs that shouldn't be in redump. (For Wii discs I can check the signing and ...

I've created the Dolphin pull request: https://github.com/dolphin-emu/dolphin/pull/8330

Feel free to unsticky this thread now, since there isn't much left to discuss.

<t>Thank you!<br/>

For integrating this into Dolphin, would you prefer that we ship a copy of the dat file with every release of Dolphin, or would you prefer that Dolphin downloads the dat file from redump.org on behalf of the user? The former would place less of a load on the server, but the ...

<r><QUOTE author="iR0b0t"><s>[quote=iR0b0t]</s>Apparently we don't store the version of gamecube and wii discs anymore. I am kind of "delaying" the deletion task for that matter because i don't know yet if we still need it or not.<e>[/quote]</e></QUOTE>
