Hi I have trouble building 3 GDI's.

Dragon Riders Chronicles of Pern
Draconis Cult of the Wyrm
Max Steel Covert Operations

I am trying to rebuild the 3 (US) GDI's with custom PVRs but have been unsuccessful they dont Boot.
They do seem to build however so not sure whats going on here but if someone could successfully build these with the attached PVRs I would very much appreciate it.

Even explain to me how or what im doing wrong?

Thanks.

I'm on the USB-GDROM side of things. But if I recall correctly these three games only work, if the GDIs are not shrunk. Could that be it? Have you tried to shrink these?

Hi yeah Shrunk and UnShrunk same issue.

I have been using RazorX Easy 0GDTEX.PVR Tool
and Extract Rebuild by Rocky5.

I have also tryed building CDI Versions which I guess is not as simple as extract and Build as CDI which I have used both BootMake and BootDreams.

Maybe it's not the shrinking that's causing the issues, but even altering any of the files that are present. Some kind of copy protection?

Yeah well unfortunately beyond me for now hopefully someone knows something to patch/hexedit etc.

write when download

how are the folder and gdi names? I remember that some tools have problems with names that are too long and don't extract the data correctly. that might be it.

for these games it does not matter, all these games have protection
