Thanks1) The torrent only has 104 of the 601 total files, youll have to get the rest via manual download or JDownloader. Does anybody have any ideas as to what's going on here It seems weird to me that the boot disc seems to be reading fine as well as recognizing the game itself, but the game just won't start. The screen then goes black and the game doesn't start up. It tells me to put in the game disc and once I do, the logo for the game comes up.
2) The only two files preventing the download from completing are 'Chaos Field (Japan).zip' and 'Death Crimson OX (USA)'.Since we find it a bit stupid to re-release nearly 200 DC titles over again, and waste the bandwidth of FTP's and end-users, We thought we would release a tutorial & toolset with which you can convert all of your old Utopia loader games to the newer self-boot format.Self-Boot and Multisession code requires 3 Minutes of Overhead on the CD you are burning. 1) The torrent only has 104 of the 601 total files, you'll have to get the rest via manual download or JDownloader.

Download Win32 Binaries for CDRECORD & MKISOFS from:Ftp.fokus.gmd.de/pub/unix/cdrecord/alpha/win32/cdrtools-1.9a03-win32-bin.zip UnZIP this whole file (E-SELFBT.ZIP) to the directory. Make a directory on your hard-disk called "selfboot" So here is your chance to prove your theories, Go ahead and rip down the games you are trying to burn by 3 Minutes if they are Full CDs. Many end-users claimed they could easily rip games and downsize them, but didn't know to read in GD-ROMs. If the data is over this size, Your burn will fail.
If it says this, That means that BLAH.BIN is the boot-filename, and this is the file that you should copy over. Look on the top, It should say something similar to: "V.001XXXXXXXX BLAH.BIN". Insert the Utopia Boot-CD version of the game into your CD-ROM drive, Copy over the IP.BIN and 1ST_READ.BIN from the CD over to the "selfboot"directory on your hard disk.(Note 1: IP.BIN cannot be found on Accession releases, therefore Accession releases cannot be made self-boot from this method.)(Note 2: 1ST_READ.BIN might not be the exact name of the boot filename, If you want to check what the boot filename really is on some games, open up IP.BIN in a hex or text editor.
Make a subdirectory called "data" inside your "selfboot" directory and copy ALL game data files from the Utopia-BootCD game into this directory. OK, So now in your "selfboot" directory, you should have this tutorial unzipped, cdrecord and all related cdrecord tools, and you should also have copied over the IP.BIN and BOOT.BIN from the game that you are working on. Please make sure you don't think that BOOT.BIN is an actual file, It is just a alias as this file can be named many things.)
This file was included in the E-SELFBT.ZIP archive. Click add, then choose the file AUDIO.RAW in your "selfboot" dir. Click the icon in the top right corner: "Load tracks" To start off for both methods, insert a blank disk into your CD-Recorder.Goto the first icon on the top left: "Record Disc" Now, you have 2 ways of achieving the same thing for this step, I will go over both ways and you can choose whichever you want. Also delete the BOOT.BIN (generally 1ST_READ.BIN) from your data tree if you have already put this file in the root of your "selfboot" tree.(Note: All files that you copy from a CD will have Read-Only attributes, You must take these off before continuing.)
This should show you a list of CD-ROM and CD-Recorder units installed in your system. Run the following command from a DOS Prompt: cdrecord -scanbus You should see files such as cdrecord.exe, mkisofs.exe, and cygwin1.dll. In the "selfboot" directory you should have the cdrecord toolset unzipped. If your CD-Recorder cannot use the "Open New Session" option in CDRWIN, You have one more way to do it, that may or may not work.
OK, Now that you have the first session burned, it's time to move onto the second. In your "selfboot" directory, run the following command to record the 1st session of the disk: cdrecord -dev=x,x,x -multi -audio audio.rawYou can optionally include "speed=x" after -audio, Where x is the maximum speed that your CD-Recorder can record at. It will also be referred to as x,x,x for the rest of this tutorial.
Normal values are 0,11700 or 0,11702 for a CD which only has AUDIO.RAW burned on the 1st session. Run the following command:It will spit out a number in the form x,y. Find out the SCSI Bus ID# of your CD-Recorder If you have not done so already. Read over the CDRECORD burn instructions. You should already have all game data files in the subdirectory "data", except for BOOT.BIN and IP.BIN.
It will then modify the BOOT.BIN according to the number that cdrecord -msinfo gave you.Next, It will ask you for the filename of the Bootsector. If it detects that this Executable is a normal Katana Executable, It will ask you for the the -msinfo number that CDRECORD gave you in the last step. If it detects that the BOOT.BIN is a Windows CE Exectuable (0WINCEOS.BIN), It will not modify the 0WINCEOS.BIN. When it prompts you for the Binary file to modify, Pick the BOOT.BIN. In addition you should have the BOOT.BIN (generally called 1ST_READ.BIN) and IP.BIN in this directory.Run the program BINHACK.EXE.
Now, you should have in your "data" directory, All game data files, including BOOT.BIN, But it should not have IP.BIN. It should still be called the original filename that you found out from Step 5. Please make sure that you did not rename the file to actually be called BOOT.BIN. Once the changes are made with BINHACK.EXE to the BOOT.BIN file, Copy the BOOT.BIN over to the "data" directory's root. If it gave you: 0,163012, Input 163012 when BINHACK prompts you for the MSINFO number.) It will hack the IP.BIN for self-boot purposes.(Side Note: Only input the 2nd Number that MSINFO gave you, Ex.
Run the following command while you are in your "selfboot" root directory:Mkisofs -C x,y -V ECHELON -l -o data.iso data"x,y" should be the numbers outputted to you from cdrecord -msinfo earlier. Your next step is to run MKISOFS and make a ISO out of these files. Please note the overhead limitations of Multi-Session & Self-Booting that were mentioned at the beginning of the tutorial, and size your dummy accordingly. Name this dummy "000DUMMY.DAT" and place it into the "data" directory. You must make a normal file dummy.
It is time to burn this file. You should now have a fairly large sized data.iso file sitting in your "selfboot" directory tree now. It will patch IP.BIN as the bootsector on data.iso. It will then prompt you for the ISO filename, Choose the file "data.iso" which you just generated in the last step. It will prompt you for the Bootsector filename, Choose IP.BIN.
Under Recording Options, Select your CD-Recorder. For Image Filename, Choose data.iso in your "selfboot" directory. For Backup Tool/Operation: Select "Record an ISO9660 Image File". Click the 2nd Icon from the Top Left: "File Backup and Tools". You can do this with either CDRWIN or CDRECORD, Just as the Audio Session Burning.
This should show you a list of CD-ROM and CD-Recorder units installed in your system. You should see files such as cdrecord.exe, mkisofs.exe and cygwin1.dll. In the "selfboot" directory you should have the cdrecord toolset unzipped. Click the start button and you are burning.
