Can't burn the patched Internet Game Pack?

Post by retrospector »

I usually have an easy time burning cdi files on discs. Sometimes my dreamcast can't read certain ones and I chalk it up to it just not being meant to be, and Ill just buy the game on ebay. But I get a unique error message when I try to burn the patched Internet Game Pack. I use Imgburn, and when I load up the cdi file and try to write it, the message says "There doesn't appear to be enough space on the disc to burn this image". The cd is 700mb and the file is a bit bigger. I then get the option to overburn it but that didnt work when I did it. Its my understanding that everyone uses the same 700mb CD-R's to burn their discs, so how did you guys get it working for you?

Any help is appreciated, thanks.

Update. Instead of choosing the Overburn option, I chose to Truncate instead. It burned properly, and my dreamcast was able to run it. Don't know if this means it will glitch out in the future when playing since I am techincally missing some files. Will update again once I get some online games in.

Hum would Truncate just mean slim down the dummy file?
