I´ve just downloaded the F-zero GX ISO and the Beyond Good and Evil ISO, got two mini DVD-R and Nero installed. The thing is that F-zero has 1144.41MB while BG&E has 1392.34MB. I did read some where that the GC ISO should have an exact size, so I downloaded FSTFiX and I´m not sure if I have to use it or not, this software has so many options that I'm not sure what to do! Acctually it has 4 options, "New File Alignment", "3GIG Padding + File Alignment", "Autodetection + Streamfix" and "Tweak Align method".
What should I do? What is this software for and when should I use it?
PS. My cube has a Viper running Cobra 1.2
Thanks.

Newest Cobras has already built-in audiofix(streamfix) so you can use F T


Heh, meaning of FSTfix can be understanded in two ways, options that can be used, F S T, or when it fixes FST named file:P

I´m sorry can you explain that better? I have no idea what you are talking about... I new on this GameCube/Cobra thing. I did search the forum and Google for an explanation on the fix but I could not find it...
Thanks!

Ok, so I did burn Beyond Good and Evil ISO using Nero (not the Express) but it did not work. After selecting the direct boot at the Cobra menu I get a red box wich askes me to look at Nintendo GameCube manual... How do I know if it is a media problem or the ISO problem?
Thanks.

If you get the red box, you probably can't tell if it is a problem with the media or the ISO, but chances are it's with the media, because I can tell you that the Beyond Good and Evil ISO size you have is exactly correct. (Do note, however, that I've downloaded ISOs of smaller sizes that I have burned and that worked just fine.) Try running it in a GameCube emulator, and see if it runs. If it does run, at any fps, then it's probably a media problem.

Oh, and BTW, when burning with Nero, YOU MUST CHECK "FINALIZE DISC". If you did not check this, it would explain why your disc did not work. THE DISC MUST BE FINALIZED.

Finalize disc is'nt necessary, i saw this when i burned normal full-size ISO and forgot to check "finalize DVD", but still, game worked =)

Ok still trying to find were the problem is... I did try to load the Beyond Good and Evil ISO on the Dolphin v1.02 but it did not work either. Now I don´t know if it´s the ISO, the emulator or the media problem. I´ll buy some dotcom medias but until them I´d like to make sure I´m doing every thing right. I have a few games (Mario Tennis, Mario Sunshine and Mario Kart) on mini DVDs that are not original but run just fine on my GC. Is there anyway I could backup them to my current media and then test on the GC? Can I use nero for that or a need something else?
-PLEASE some one provide me a link to this all stremfix and FSTFiX stuff, I want to learn what that is for... Where can I learn all about this GC files, backup, fix,cobra, etc?
- I also downloaded F-zero GX ISO but the file s3-fzero.r23 is missing, I con´t find that to download so I´ll have to wait the other ISOs to finish downloading to continue the tests. I´m so frustrated!
