Recently added GBA dumps

[C. V. Reynolds]

Recently DeriLoko3 added a lot of GBA dumps on the DOM. Where did these dumps come from? Are they from legitimate carts? Are they unhacked/unaltered?

[xuom2]

honestly I don't understand what he is doing. he added n64 archives without adding hashes. i think he has to better understand the interface. i sent him a mail.

same question about NDS z142 and z143

[Collecter]

i herd the gbas are in the goodgba set as for who dumped them i dont know, i tried some of the roms and they seem to be test thingys and some are dumped from a gamecube or whatever

Was he who added the dsi bios?
The 2 nintendo 64 roms had no crc and size but were those legir roms which were missing from no-intro and are they needed? -_-

im very confused after all of those new additions

[Hiccup]

maybe some of the GBAs are from dev kit(s) or they are multiboot ROMs.
multiboot ROMs used to have a dat, btw.

same question about NDS z142 and z143

Those 2 games he hexedit the data in the roms at offset 0200 til 0210 with 00.
That data need to be there in clean roms.

DOM should pick up 3E6924F6?
at this moment it can't work (it takes the first bad dump ignoring the newer), but i will fix.

Hi. Let me describe a few things.

1. No, I did not dump those ROMs, which they were not added into DAT-o-MATIC, until now. I do not know who dumped those GBA ROMs and those N64 ROMs. Those ROMs, which they were never-before-seen, are just posted into random gaming websites, which they are not hacking websites. This includes two Zelda ROMs (They are only big-endian). Let me show you the ROM data.

Legend of Zelda, The - Majora's Mask (Europe) (Collector's Edition)

Code: Select all

Size: 33554431
CRC32: 3bed3980
MD5: 7d55045063cb66ca770d7c64f1b77294
SHA-1: 3522e96ad66991ccb7575b98cb97dbd629e240d1

Zelda no Densetsu - Toki no Ocarina (Japan) (Zelda Collection Edition)

Code: Select all

Size: 33554431
CRC32: 87864287
MD5: ddc81d959f170a593708fad73f7589eb
SHA-1: 2e72e5423fa2dacddb8909e33eb87fa63261610a

2. All those GBA ROMs that I added to DAT-o-MATIC are un-hacked and unaltered. This includes the demos and the Advance Play Edition games. Again, they were never-before-seen. To me, those demos must have come from the development kits. Do you know the Yoshi SDK demo? That came from the development kit.

3. The Korean versions of Pokemon - Black Version 2 and Pokemon - White Version 2 are the things that I was supposed to look at. I was looking around the web to see, if there are more copies of those two games, but there is no luck. So, I decided to find another way to make those two games proper, which is to add the DSi data into the two ROMs. I am not sure, if this might help, but I think that using a hex editor might do the trick.

4. You know those two Zelda ROMs that I mentioned. I was only trying to add the big-endian ROM data, not the byte-swapped ROM data, but it did not work.

You may want to look it up on the Old Computer website or the Iso Zone website.

yes pls can a expert look at the 2 n64 roms if we miss them then add them.

[Hiccup]

Its probably best to make a post here if you aren't sure of the origin.

[Collecter]

if somebody manages to dump the whole dsi bios will the bios be added to encrypted dat or both enc and decrypted?
Are the the 4 bios files we got in the decrypted dat now good and will be kept?

DeriLoko3: Please be sure to never assign a clone entry as another entry's parent. It messes up the system. I cleaned it up last time it happened in the GBA section, but this time I did not. I'm letting you know for the future. Please be aware that I'm only interested in helping, not scolding.

Hi, please PM me an example, I see if I can do some check during edits. Thanks.

This was finally implemented. We can force DOM to pick up the files we specify.
Archive table now holds a new field: "FORCE_BINLIST" (by default: empty).
DOM usually picks up the files in an automatic way, based on submitted sources and releases.
If you add a binlist in "FORCE_BINLIST" field, DOM will pick up that list instead the automatic way.
I remember that what I call "binlist" is a list of file ID, with "-" as separator.
Example: -123-177- loads 2 files with ID 123 and 177.

What are "Advance Play Edition" games anyways?
Were these released on some other platform?
