If you want some help, please be more specific as in :

- Did you put the roms on the root of the CD ?
- are the roms names in 8.3 fileformat (means not more then 8 digits)?
- How did you created you selfboot cd image?
- What did you used to burn your cd image?

i need an ip bin dont I??? and nothing seems to work for me since i got XP

[scrabbus]

do i have to put the roms in a folder or just plain???

[scrabbus]

and what would you reccomend I burn this with??? HEEEEELP

[VampiricS]

You sure didn't understood what i was telling you aren't you?

Yes you need an IP.BIN.

Here's how easy it is:

1. Unzip the Hucast file to a folder called HuCast.
2. Then in the same folder, put the .pce files (roms) unzipped there.
3. Put a file called IP.BIN in that same folder.
4. Check that your roms filename aren't longer then 8 digits
5. Use a program like 'DIR2BOOT' to make a selfboot image of that folder.
6. Burn the image file in Alchool 120% if you created a CDI file or Nero 5.x.x if you created a .NRG file.

P.S. : Being on XP aint really a problem to burn Dreamcast homebrew, since many are on WinXP and have no problem.

thanks man, i really apreciate this, how do i make an ip bin????

[VampiricS]

Well like i already told you earlier, if you download selfboot inducer from the link i gave you earlier, it does have an ip.bin file in the folder of the application,just use that one and put the file into your hucast folder with the rest of your file. Please try to at least read carefully the help we provide before asking the same question twice.

This is the last post i do here to help you.
