Wow best news of the day!

No, just be patient. Enjoy all the other working games for now.

Yes. That is the best news in Emulation in the last 2 to 3 years at least. Those guys have been cooking. Linux Loader is absolutely brilliant. The level of polish and overall quality for the supported games is way above what TP provides behind a paywall.

By default in the game folder, but you can change it with command line options -c "C:\yourpath\linuxloader.ini" -o "C:\yourpath\controls.ini"

Thank you so much! Not sure why it did not pop up on archive.org when I initially searched for lindbergh. I guess I need new glasses! Confirmed those do not display the "not clean" message and seem to work.

Thanks, that seems to be for Chihiro not Lindbergh. The bin files on archive.org for Batocera all say "not clean elf". So something is going on. I actually found some information here https://github.com/ArcadeHustle/LindyLiberation Not going to spend time on that, someone already made all the work and the clean files are around. Just need to be patient. It is already a glorious day to have "linux loader", so I can wait until the clean images drop. I have hundreds of other games to test and play anyways. Game DVDs Games are stored on installation DVDs. These contain a section of custom sega header data followed by an ISO file system with multiple partitions. As explained in the security chip section, one of these partitions contains a bash script to unencrypt the other partitions which contain the game data and executable. Although there are multiple partitions, most games only use one partition to store all of the files. Probably should try this and explain better, but this is how you get the data from the DVDS: Mount the DVD drive from a USB Drive Using a hex editor to search the raw image for “CD001” (ISO Marker), this is found at 0x288000 and 0x390000 on HOTD4. Subtract 32768 (0x8000) as per the ISO9660 standard (en.wikipedia.org/wiki/ISO_9660) 0x288000 - 0x8000 = 0x280000 = 2621440 0x390000 - 0x8000 = 3702784 On a linux machine you can then mount these: losetup -o 2621440 /dev/loop1 /dev/scd0 mount -t iso9660 -o ro /dev/loop1 /mnt/cdrom/ These two partitions are encrypted. One contains the game data, and the other will contain a bash script that will unencrypt the game data folder. The PIC chip is used to unencrypt the smaller partition with the bash file, which then uses faster decryption for the game. It’s easy to find most of the bash files that unencrypt the game partitions with static keys by finding pre-decrypted Lindbergh images online. Some games use the same decryption keys, so if you find a game that hasn’t yet been decrypted that could be one way to do it. This is explained in more detail in the security chip section.

Guess we will need to wait then for the official dumps.

Have you tried it with the Lindbergh isos? Just tried and it did not work.

Does anyone know how to decrypt the lindbergh isos on windows to get cleaner dumps?

Yes I have the same problem, but they are "cleaner" than some of the TP versions I had before which had various patched elf files. I have not yet found perfectly clean elfs matching CRCs. I even tried the eggman's archive from myrient and only disk1 and disk9 are part of all the "dumps" but no disk0, so kind of waste of time. We need to wait for a generous folk to share the real clean builds. You don't need to build. Get the " linuxloader-win32.zip" from the release page

Amazing! Finally, what a great option. ABC never worked properly and never improved with Teknoparrot, and being closed source might have been the main reason for that. So awesome to see such a great project and great sharing philosophy. Quick tips: To create controls.ini: linuxloader.exe --create controls To create linuxloader.ini: linuxloader.exe --create config Unless you add it to the command line by default the loader looks for those config files in the game directory for example if you have abc in "D:\Roms\After Burner Climax (SBLR) (Rev. A)\", you should have "D:\Roms\After Burner Climax (SBLR) (Rev. A)\controls.ini" and "D:\Roms\After Burner Climax (SBLR) (Rev. A)\linuxloader.ini" To find clean lindbergh rom search for SegaLindbergh on archive.org (thanks to @murray) To fix Afterburner ABX01 error: Launch the game adding -t option: linuxloader.exe "D:\Roms\After Burner Climax (SBLR) (Rev. A)\abc" -t Enter "Game Assignments" (Q key), then set "cabinet movement" to OFF Quit menu and close game Relaunch game without -t

Oui a 1 ou 2 euros des jeux de cette qualite c'est donne. Je payais mes vieux jeux Amstrad CPC entre 100 et 150 francs a l'epoque donc plus de 15 euros pour des jeux merdiques. Les prix ont bien baisse, c'est pour ca que j'aime steam. Aucune autre platforme a des gros discounts comme ca sur des jeux.

Merci, il a l'air bien classe, je vais le rajouter a la liste. J'ai aussi refait les jeux de baston si ca t'interesse. Acts of Blood - Thanks to @3nigm4: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3031890/ Aussi decouvert ca aujourd'hui: Blades & Battles: https://store.steampowered.com/app/3284260/Blades__Battles/ Kings do not fall: https://store.steampowered.com/app/4231970/Kings_Do_Not_Fall/

Arf pour de bons jeux ca en vaut la peine. Tu as essaye deal gg ca fait de bonnes economies.

Haha je suis pas aussi riche malheureusement 😄 J'ai fini la liste des shoot'em ups. Je continue demain sur les jeux de tatane.

Ma wishlist a presque 1000 titres. J'achete les jeux en general quand ils sont a plus de 80% de reduc, sauf les jeux vraiment speciaux de petit developpeurs ou autres (Microids par example) que je veux aider que j'achete a la sortie. Je recommande https://gg.deals/ pour les meilleur prix. Ah mince j'ai oublie de rajouter ceux qui etaient sur ma wishlist... J'ai pas fini en fait.

Oui je le ferai quand je m'ennuie 😄 Non pas de script, et j'y ai pas trop passe de temps ca va. Je prefere choisir les images a la main
