Hey all!

New here! Just got me gdemu and 400gb sd card and everything is working great. I tried looking but cant seem to find if there were ever a final cdi ode compatible version of the 3 bleemcast games that were released?

Thanks!

Are there any chances to make it happen on GDEMU? What is the status of it? What are technical issues we need to work around there?

It has crazy protections that need to be fully removed. A developer by the name of japanese_cake has been working on it since January 2019 so it is coming when it is done. No release date stated, but he recently updated us on Twitter not too long ago that he was taking another shot at it but it is proving to be very complex to fully remove 100% of the protections. He said he had one dirty hack he needed to clean up and then he would release it.

Once that is released, then megavolt can add it to his awesome Bleemshell menu for GDEMU and we could potentially use the 3 emulator binaries from the retails as emulation cores thus further improving compatibility. Those 3 retails were originally cracked in 2009, and then again hacked in 2011 to remove the disc check feature which let us boot additional games from them. The save feature still was not working for other games, but on the Tekken 3 emulator disc it lacked analog. So any games you booted with it did not use that control. Maybe it could be re-enabled or faked like it is currently in Bleemshell. But all 3 allowed FMV's to work from any other games you tried booting with them.

I just got a Dreamcast. Yeah there's millions of ways to play PS1 but I'd love to be able to play PS1 on Dreamcast. Please keep us up to date.
