listen i 've read all good ripping guides that exist out there but there's always a step i don't understand. if a game contains an lba table we have to reindex it right? rihgt. if i got it right we should use lba table finder to deep scan all the files of the game. since i've not ran into any game that has an lba table -pretty sensible considering the fact that i've tried to rip just a few games- let me tell you what i think we do next. if it finds a table we try to check it's format with a hex editor so that we can choose from a later given list. now when do i have to search for any possible tables? is it right after the extraction of the game files to the hard drive? if it finds a table should i just minimize the program and go on ripping and if yes at which point should i choose the table and reindex it? is there any way other than the hex editor to easily find tha table format? what does it mean reindex just before you make the iso file- i mean after having my .ccz file and after the ripping and relinking and just before i use iml2dvd? help cause i'm confused.
