Is their a small chance you could invent a tool to fix scrubbed isos, that way it would be easier collecting missing Asian dumps in particular, as a lot of the scene releases got scrubbed, rendering them useless to redump collectors, but a scrubbed iso fixing tool, I am guessing would go down a treat Image

Thanks for beta 1, much better to be able to have isos on one drive and the created dec.iso on another, doesn't seem to have any speed increase though, which is strange, but still a good option.

FOXHOUND Would like to ask you something, about some sort of romulus integration, but he has no way of contacting you. Would you like me to find a way you can get hold of him, I'm sure he has an email address or something.

it's possible, but with very few scene isos Image

the kinds of scene isos:

1) 1:1 clean isos
2) scrubbed, simply junk removed (GCtool from paradox) (possible to restore, since FST is untouched)
3) shrinked, junk removed + rellocated files to make smaller iso (not possible, FST is rebuilded)
4) scrubbed and relocated files (starcube group release) (inpossible to recover, FST is rebuilded)

I have already such tool, but there is a very small chance of success
tossEAC, which Asian dumps are missing?

Code: Select all

Sure, how can I contact?

Thank you for making this. I had a few non scene files I got my hands on that were scrubbed and I needed a way to unscrub them when I found this. It worked perfectly...except for the ones I later found had been rebuilt to remove the update partition which caused this tool to crash. It would be nice if this tool would output some text to say what it's doing so I'm not staring a a blinking cursor wondering if it's working. Also just by the nature of how you wrote it I found I can just drag the ISO to it and it will run without having to open the command prompt and type anything.

Should we add the hash of the .iso.dec to the database as well? Or create a dedicated dat file ?
