Dream Chess (HDD IDE - SD - CD-R)

Post by Ro Magnus Larsson »

Dream Chess (HDD IDE - SD - CD-R) UPDATED!

A timeless game type and development from 2007-2011. The game is in 3D, you can change 3D views with stick and select different boards and pieces.
Programmed by Walter van Niftrik and Kris McAulay,
Graphics by Andrew Ball, Brandon May, and Rogier van Schaijk, BlueCrab.

In the 7z file there is the original CDI file.
I made the ISO file for Dreamshell + US/Jp covers. (Hex code changed for IDE)
Cover re-designed by me (only there was in existance an old attempt, I hope you like these)
Dreamshell/RetroDream preset by default except OS: Homebrew

The only detail in Dreamshell/RetroDream is that can not reboot from A+B+X+Y+Start

To correct the information here... The game was programmed by Walter van Niftrik and Kris McAulay, with graphics by Andrew Ball, Brandon May, and Rogier van Schaijk, as the AUTHORS fiile indicates along with a number of other people who were involved in it (including myself).

Also, just to point out that this is GPLed, and you need to include the full source code along with it (and the code to any modifications that were made to it, like adding IDE/SD support if anything was changed to do that). Just releasing a binary of the game is in violation of the license.

How can you convert cdi file into iso file which is able to run in dreamshell/retrodream?
I have some cdi file which is not able to run in any preset of dreamshell/retrodream So I think It would be possible to run iso file in dreamshell/retrodream,If you inform me how can you convert cdi into iso file and what address I should change in hex code editor.

I followed the link given, downloaded, unzipped ( with WinRAR, not 7Zip, I prefer WinRAR ), then looked in the folder I put it, to unzip in one place and voila.............NO CDI FILE, only an ISO and NRG file and a few pictures, that's it.
