GDemu: some games don't start

Post by Tackskull »

Hello there,

after 20 years of inactivity, my japanese dreamcast got a retro PSU and GDemu V5.20 mod.


SInce I prepared my memory stick for gdemu, most of the games run pretty well. But there are some specifics games (toy story 2, gauntlet legends and shadow man) in the USA versions that won't run.

Basically when starting this games, I get to the dreamcast bios presentation, than the "SEGA" screen, and then is like the dreamcst is resetting again get back to the bios, than back to the GDemu game list.

What i noticed is that all the games with this problem are the USA version, maybe because my dreamcast is japanese is not able to run them? But i run other american games pretty well. I even use gdemu card creator to patch all the games to be region free, but nothing changed. Probably as I will continue to test new games, I'll find other USA games wich will not run.

Can you guys help me with this? Thanks :D
