lol what? i booted already retrodream with a cdi files i created with dreamshell and from there i boot retrodream. yes retrodream can do that. but not fix for me..i0m trying with region changer backup and restore from my other va1 console



Oh I thought you were getting retrodream confused with Dreamshell. While you can boot the Dreamshell ISO with GDEMU it does not function to load games. So that is what I was getting at. You can not load games from GDEMU with it but can use Dreamshell to flash bios. I did this before to flash my bios after building my own image with more updated bios. So that does work.

No I do not. I have a US version VA1. Bios mod is not just to change region, you also can have more features on the dashboard.
