Ok has anybody got this running and can give me a disk layout. I've tried putting all the sega cd files on the root of the disk along with the bin with no luck so if anyone could help me that would be great. Thanks in advance

LTK do you think it would be possiable to have disc swapping, and useing an original mega cd disc of Heart of the alien, in a future version?

socalpunkroc: If you have a zip file without readme.1st you can download at HERE or at http://ltk.dciberia.net/dreamcast/dreamcast.htm

Darksaviour69: I think this would be possible, maybe with people interested on original game suport I would add it, if there is no much people I would prefer continue with other proyects. Are you interested on?
