Can't play Gran Turismo 2 ROM?

newtosite32 · September 6th, 2011, 07:41

Hello, I used to own the GT2 game but it got lost so I have to download the ROM from the internet. This rom looks different than the others. Usually they are just one .bin file to play the game. With Gran Turismo, there are three files (.ccd, .img.emc, and .sub). The .ccd and .sub file displays an error popup, and the .img.emc displays a blank page.

At first I thought I had a bad download, so I tried another and it has the same files. Any ideas?

Ah nevermind I found the answer

Man these things are impossible to figure out on your own you just have to "know" how to do it or at least what to search for. It would be nice to have some readme file to explain these things.

1.Download and install winzip
2. Go to http://www.neillcorlett.com/ecm/
3.Click on 'Download ECM v1.0' and save to desktop
4.Double click on it to view zipped files
5.Locate 'unecm.exe' and extract to the desktop
6. Copy (for backup in case) tony hawks 4 bin.ecm file to desktop
7.Drag the file onto 'unecm.exe' and select run on the popup window. A dos screen should appear, last line saying 'decoding' with progress in %
8.Finally, the dos window will disappear and leave a second copy on desktop of tony hawks 4 , this time with just a .bin extension
So run this file in epsxe and enjoy!
