Yes I made some improvements for CDDA. It's no fundamental changes, but some new features can help improve compatibility.

Great good news ! Angel

I found another preset of First Kiss Story2 which has no freezing symptom at all when I press continuously A,B,X,Y button in gameplay and no blackscreen after one of problematic FMV animation.But Unfortunately there still remain serious problem of freezing when I select save or load option in game.So It is impossible to save or load in gameplay with this preset...

(Direct,0x8CB01800,0x8CB02800,DMA on, SYNC ture or 16, CDDA off, OS auto,Loader auto)


RE: ISO Loader 0.6.x Beta - fafadou - 07.11.2022 20:51

With retrodream we have the preset "true" PIO, and with 4 wheel thunder, for me the loadings
are a little faster with 0.6.11 loader and cdda.
This preset seems to be not available with iso loader, but it's probably just a feeling.

For puyo puyo 4, 0.6.11, preset 0x8C000100, true DMA, cdda, the music crash a little like we have with
Kao the Kangaroo. But comes back good after a moment.

I want to try to load the memory address in the 32M dc,

but the memory address starting with 0x8D cannot be preset in the memory address option.

Is there any way to preset it? For example, the preset is 0x8D00100 or 0x8d004000Big Grin


RE: ISO Loader 0.6.x Beta - fafadou - 25.11.2022 22:15

Oh @Swat what a great job !!!
Is there something new you have find ?
@Swat don't hesitate, to request Dragoncity if you want to work on a new isoloader software and of course if I can do something, I'll be the happiest man Big Grin
The adds is iso loader are great too, I love the design.
[Edit]


@kof888 maybe it's a thing @dragoncity and @cpasjuste could had this in retrodream.
It will be good thing to try Tom Jam & Earl 3 with 32MB dreamcast.

Also if you need, @Megavolt85 had build an homebrew with cdda in gdi opt format :

This game is shadow gangs.

RE: ISO Loader 0.6.x Beta - pcwzrd13 - 27.11.2022 23:02

Looks great SWAT! Will the improvements to CDDA fix the music distortion in some games when it's playing for too long?

Also, what exactly are the benefits of IRQ?


RE: ISO Loader 0.6.x Beta - EduardoKmus - 27.11.2022 23:57

Amazing work!! from now on it will not be necessary to select a memory position manually?


RE: ISO Loader 0.6.x Beta - fafadou - 28.11.2022 02:21

What a delight to see this damn loading screen finally not freezing !
Thank you @Swat

Need more tests, maybe IRQ improved situation. If not, I'll try to fix it by another way.

(27.11.2022 23:02)pcwzrd13 писал(а):  Also, what exactly are the benefits of IRQ?

IRQ hooking gives the best loading speed ever, allows you to reduce memory consumption for CDDA from 32KB to 16KB (main and sound RAM) and something else that is still disabled.

(27.11.2022 23:57)EduardoKmus писал(а):  Amazing work!! from now on it will not be necessary to select a memory position manually?

It will be necessary for some. Also now you can select where loader places buffers like for CDDA, CSO and other dynamic memory. This is named as HEAP.
If loader places at 0x8c000100 (I want to use it as default) and IRQ hooking working (unfortunately not everywhere yet), you can place buffers behind the loader (can use auto) and it will not use the high memory for CDDA in general. It fix some cases.

Yeah, but UT has very slow loadings in general (lazy devs) and IRQ not big help here.


RE: ISO Loader 0.6.x Beta - Zychion - 28.11.2022 07:25

Hey SWAT,

I don't want to be a pain but if you have it on a CF card somewhere, could you try booting up NBA Showtime? The game seems to use CDDA for the announcer which I understand is a super strange case but I'd be interested to see if you've made progress there.

Thanks for all your efforts.
