Hey guys, I got a image of Resident Evil (U) [SLUS-00170] and when I check it with psxt001z I get the following output

Code: Select all

psxt001z by Dremora, v0.21 beta 1

File: Track 01.bin
Size (bytes):   680732304
From image:     680379504
Size (sectors): 289427
From image:     289277
EDC in Form 2 sectors: YES
ID: SLUS-00170
Date: 1996-03-07
System area: US EDC
The dump from the db gives this:

Code: Select all

psxt001z by Dremora, v0.21 beta 1

File: Resident Evil (U) [SLUS-00170].bin
Size (bytes):   680379504 (OK)
Size (sectors): 289277 (OK)
EDC in Form 2 sectors: NO
ID: SLUS-00170
Date: 1996-03-07
System area: US NoEDC
Can a bad dump "fool" psxt001z or this might be another version?

if you look at it closer:

Code: Select all

psxt001z by Dremora, v0.21 beta 1

File: Track 01.bin
Size (bytes):   680732304 <-- 2 seconds postgap were added
From image:     680379504 <-- original dump size
Size (sectors): 289427
From image:     289277
EDC in Form 2 sectors: YES <-- probably it was modified in CDmage to become EDC data !!!
ID: SLUS-00170
Date: 1996-03-07
System area: US EDC
thus is nothing unusual for sprayed p2p images

I wonder why do they have all this trouble of modifying the images...

I don't know the reason for adding postgaps,
but some people think it would be better to have EDC data in their PSX images,
I just think if the original disc works perfectly without EDC why also to add it afterward ?

! THE WORLD IS NOT ENOUGH !
