Among the survivors were those who rose up to fight Noah’s robotic henchmen. They formed villages and towns, living off of technology that they were able to salvage from the piles of wreckage. As the years passed, the number of human survivors grew, slowly but steadily. This cataclysmic event came to be known as the Great Destruction. In a matter of days, civilization fell to terrifying weapons and monsters created by Noah.

Noah’s solution, however, was to exterminate its creators. You’ll probably need to do lots of things by hand, but using notepad++ it will be faster than it seems.In the not so distant future… Desperate to find a way to save the earth from pollution, mankind created a gigantic supercomputer and named it Noah. Note that some multi disc games aren’t games that require the first discs to work, so Resident Evil 2, Gran Turismo 2, Street Fighter Collection and some others have their original “(Disc)” tags.

HyperspinChecker will find the games in your paths, and you can crop it pressing a simple button, once you have all the m3u files named accordingly to your way, in this case "Riven - The Sequel to Myst (USA).m3u, all other entries for the other discs will be removed. I need to point the rom folder in HyperHQ and set its extensions, configure the paths in HyperspinChecker, audit the system and then I can crop the database.īut first, I need to edit the main database and remove the (Disc 1) tag using notepad++ and replace all at once for nothing, only leaving alone the regional tag. If a system has lots of multi disc games, in the PS1 case, I use HyperspinChecker tool, I mainly use it to crop databases down to only available roms. When it come to multi discs that can be used as single discs for PS1 and Saturn, and I hope for some other systems in the future, I use only one entry, in the Riven case the entry is: And if you turn on the widescreen mode in NiGHTS or Panzer Dragoon Zwei, they use the horizontal overscan area, so you’d want to set that back to 0 turn off your overlay, and use 16:9 aspect to run those in proper widescreen. Some games like Mega Man 8 do draw stuff in that area though. I would recommend setting initial scanline to 8 and last to 231 to remove the vertical overscan as well. You might also need to set the horizontal overscan core option to 32 to cut off the black overscan on the sides, since you use an overlay. I use that as my default aspect for Saturn, but some games like PDS and Sega Rally have graphics corrected for 4:3, so I use overrides to set 4:3 on them to get perfect circles. In RetroArch you can change the aspect ratio to Pixel Aspect in Video Options to get a round circle on the BIOS. Stand alone should have that too by default you must have changed the ss.correct_aspect setting to 0. I believe skinny is how it’s supposed to look, or at least it did on 4:3 CRTs (according to what I’ve read). Here you can see an example, a folder specific for multi disc games so it will be easier to sort out the m3u files. m3u file will fix this because the save will follow the same name for all discs, you can name it Metal Gear (USA).m3u and the save will be named Metal Gear (USA).srm for all discs.

Saves are usually stored separately for each game, this applies to multi discs, so if you, say, reach the second disc in Metal Gear, the save file will be named something like Metal Gear (USA) (Disc 1).srm (the save file will follow your rom file name), and it won’t be recognized in the following disc since it will try to find the save for the Metal Gear (USA) (Disc 2).srm file. Multi disc games will prompt for the other CD when you reach a certain point of the game, back and forth, in this example I’m using Riven because it’s probably the game that uses more discs I know, in PS1 it has 5 discs, and it’s interesting because it will prompt you to swap back to the first discs since you need to come back to the first areas to progress in the game.
