Hi all,
I'm trying to boot half-life via raw files on sd-card. I want to try to boot /sd/hl/ip.bin or /sd/hl/halflife_dc.exe. Is loading a game from raw files possible? I'm aware RC3 cannot boot Windows CE games via ISO. But i'm looking into getting half-life to boot from files rather than an ISO. There's a few functions in the game that try to write to files in the game, but can't on GD/CD
Is there any memory addresses i can boot an exe from? Any alternative way?
Thanks for any help
RC3 cannot boot WinCE in any case. And ISO Loader cannot boot games from RAW files without CD image.
Is there any chance RC4 will be able to run the EXE?
ISO Loader in RC4 can boot Windows CE ROM Image (0WINCEOS.BIN), which in turn loads and executing EXE. But need make ISO in any case, because ISO Loader works only with CD images.
Now that RC4 / 4.0 is out (which is very nice, good work ) is there a way to run an Windows CE binary from the console?
Or am I able to run 1ST_READ.BIN from the console, which runs the EXE? Half-Life does not have 0WINCEOS.BIN only 1ST_READ.BIN. Half-Life has some functions that write to various files, I would like to see if they work, when running outside of ISO image
Thanks

Some WinCE games has 1ST_READ.BIN instead of 0WINCEOS.BIN, but in any case this is WinCE ROM, with only one difference, this is additional header in 0WINCEOS.BIN with size 2048 bytes.
Seems you don't understand how it's works. The game doesn't known about additional devices and any "write" functions can't work in any case. Doesn't matter where you launch binary it's will works only with GD drive and it's doesn't have write feature.
Also unfortunately Half Life doesn't boot in RC4
