Dreamcast-Talk.com

this is probably an odd request, but i really wanted to play the infamous visual novel "Plumbers Dont Wear Ties" on flycast (mainly to test it before i burn it to CD), so i followed the tutorial on the scummvm.org website but the furthest i would get was the "Please insert Game CD" screen (even though i put the game itself inside the file that i turned into a cdi file so it should just load the game?)

am i doing something wrong? my directory is like this:

PlumbersDC
|--PLUMBERS (The game itself)
|--000DUMMY.DAT
|--IP.BIN
|-- PLUMBERS.PLG
|-- SCUMMVM.BIN

thanks

ah, i thought i had 2.8.0, the version of the game i have is the DOS version from Archive.org, works on the PC version for me.

windows version that works not dos

this is where i got my copy of the game, works on PC with ScummVM

honestly i'm having problems with StellaDC as well, i wonder what i'm doing wrong in terms of creating CDi files.
