MP83 found out that the follwing software is troubled by bad dumps:

- Blaster Burn 2 (Disc Station 10, disk 2) = Second stage always freezes at the same spot.
- Tenkyuhai Special 2 = One of the images is corrupted.
- Northern Quarters Preview (Disc Station 23, disk 1) = First screen is corrupted.
- Play the Golf with Me = One of the images is corrupted.

Blaster Burn:

Tenkyuhai Special 2:

Northern Quarters:

Play the Golf with Me

Anyone who can help getting good dumps?

Just checking: people have used the bug fixes on the disc station disks that solve some minor issues right? These are not fixed then?

Disc Stations #7, #8, #12, #14, and #17 contained bugfixes for Blaster Burn #0, #1, #3, #5 and #8 respectively. There's no bugfixes by Compile for Blaster Burn #2. There does exist a working dump of Blaster Burn #2, directly ripped from Project EGG, but it's missing the other Disc Station 10, disk 2 content. Maybe someone can combine both sources together to make a working version of Disc Station 10, disk 2.

Regarding Blaster Burn on DS10, disk 2;
The common disk image circulating on the net is corrupt.
Thankfully the project egg image is hardly altered, so I was able to find the problem.

Here's an ips to fix the bugged image:

Thanks :) Do you happen to have any checksums of the original and fixed image, just to make sure we're using the correct disk?

SHA1 hash of original:
2a9aa4a540f09d07a51c97616952f9ccf88c3719

SHA1 hash of fixed disk:
01d8a3211dc52fd41982384876645573676b57e3

*edit*
It seems there is another dump with a different hash that's even more problematic.

SHA1 hash of alternate dump:
859465909a4dcbd2658b3f776c925347a3357879

The patch won't work on that one. Stage 1 won't even load on that version.

I can confirm that Disc Station 10 disk 2 is now completely fixed. Thanks Samor!
