FF7 Runs from CD Fine But not from Image...

exeloop · May 1st, 2001

Hi,

The Pal Version on FF7 works great on Adripsx, but when I make an Image of it and try to run that It just goes to the boot up screen and gives a cd access error (Ive tried every single cd/image plugin and also tried using Daemon Tools).

The Image is definately good (I used CDRWIN Mode2XA + tried various others) as it works fine with ePSXe (but the game isnt compatible with that emulator atm).

Any suggestions, is this a known problem?

Apart from this the emulator has been great!

I know this... This is one of the few games that I couldn't boot from ISO at home.. just because FF7 files are set as "hidden" and ISO structure seems not to work the same way with these files.
I hope to have this solved soon.

Roor.

Thanks for explaining the situation,

Just wondering if there are any tools that can change the hidden status when writing an image.

Ive tried copying the CD to my harddisk unhiding everything, and then created an Image (with raw sectors) from that in CDR-WIN, but this didnt work.
