ah ok, so if I only need to use it on GDEMU, i can only apply the RGB fix. But if i would be interested both to use it on GDEMU and burn it, it is better to apply both patched, is it correct?

You can release it via mega.nz or mediafire.

you could also just download the echelon image and RGB patch from my link and patch it with PPF-O-matic https://www.romhacking.net/utilities/356/

yes, that's correct. I only applied the RGB fix to ECHELON .cdi image with ppf-O-Matic and it perfectly works! :)

i'm looking for Vampire Chronicles for Sega Dreamcast already fixed with the RGB fix, in order to use it with RGB cable on my CRT instead of VGA. But i don't find it, every link is broken.
I found a patch, with 3 files: file_id.diz, adr-vamp.ppf, adr-vamp.nfo but i don't know how to apply it on my gdi image.

thank you

You should read this article:
https://www.retrorgb.com/dreamcast.html


This RGB fix fixes the data that I have seen modified

It's basically ECHELON's fix for the first release (the first ECHELON release doesn't seem to work with vga cables?)

and added support for rgb lines (in the original program, only av and vga lines were judged, rgb lines were excluded)

So, if you are using a gdi file, you should only need to search for the following

58a0090031e33da0322d0000f46a318c

Change the first 58 to 3e to achieve support for rgb lines

Do you think that it is better to use a .gdi image?

Is this "58a0090031e33da0322d0000f46a318c" a MD5 or SHA1 code?

how can I change the firs 2 characters? I have checked the .gdi code using this website: https://emn178.github.io/online-tools/md5_checksum.html or https://emn178.github.io/online-tools/s ... cksum.html

thank you

The hex editor opens track03.bin and searches for the hex string
