Important Notes
===============
If you like PCE, you're going to love this one. Out of the 100+ CDs I tried
and the dozens of HUCard images, it played them all perfectly with just a
handful of ones with minor issues.
------------------
Perfect CUE System
------------------
Thanks to the great people at
http://necstasy.emunova.net/, you should no
longer have to worry if your CUE sheet has the right indices, gaps, layout, etc.
The PCE TOC database is a compilation of verified TOCs from just about every
single PCE CD game in existence. I have incorporated all of that data into
MednafenX-PCE. The only thing you need to be concerned with is making sure
your CUE sheet points to the correct ISO/MP3 files for each track. You
can still use CDDissect to rip your PCE games:
http://xport.xbox-scene.com/cddissect.phpAs long as you have all the ISO/MP3 files and your CUE sheet points to them
correctly, you'll be all set.
Please note the following examples of CUE sheet "FILE" lines:
This is good:
FILE "dynastic_hero02.iso" BINARY
This is bad:
FILE "c:\pcecds\dynastic hero\dynastic_hero02.iso" BINARY
You should not have any paths in your FILE lines. It should simply be the
filename.
--------
CD Games
--------
To play a CD game, select the CUE sheet. You will then be prompted to select
the name of the game so that MednafenX-PCE can load the correct TOC information.
If you are looking for a specific name but cannot find it, then load up
pcetoc_names.txt in notepad or some other text viewer and search for the name of
the game. (Or some portion of the name.)
The game you are trying to play *does* have an entry in the list. You just have to
find it.
----------------
US Encoded Games
----------------
Almost all games will load without issue, but if you just get a black screen
then go to the game configuration menu for that game and toggle the "Force US"
option. That will probably fix the problem. If not, you most likely have a bad
dump.
