7/27/2023 0 Comments Alundra rom ps1![]() ![]() In recent years, Alundra has been made available as a downloadable game on the PSone Classics service for the PlayStation 3's PlayStation Network. Retrospective reception has since been more positive towards its 2D art design, and considers the game to be a classic of its genre. However, it was criticized for its dated 2D sprite visuals, and suffered from a low production run, becoming obscure over time. It was praised for its well-written story and characterization, smooth game mechanics and platforming, challenging gameplay, difficult puzzles, and expansive overworld exploration. Upon release, Alundra earned unanimous critical acclaim as well as some initial commercial success. The narrative becomes gradually darker and more twisted as the game progresses, dealing with mature themes such as death, clinical depression, fate, religion, and the meaning of human existence. With his dream walking ability, Alundra decides to try to help the locals. ![]() He is shipwrecked near the village of Inoa, where locals have been suffering from recurring nightmares that lead to dire consequences for the individual. The game's protagonist is a young man named Alundra, who learns that he has the power to enter people's dreams. The game is said to be the spiritual successor to the Sega Genesis game Landstalker as it was developed by many of the same team. It was published by Sony in Japan, Working Designs in North America, and Psygnosis in Europe. For its protagonist, see Alundra (character).Īlundra ( アランドラ, Arandora), released in Europe as The Adventures of Alundra, is an action-adventure game / action role-playing game developed by Matrix Software for the Sony PlayStation released in 1997. I just can't figure out what's going on and fully understand how it works.This article is about the game. That ISO creation is like a black box to me. I changed its size to 0 with TOC Changer, managed to replace it with an empty file with a same name, but CDMage won't save the new ISO file! >.< Then, I tried to remove the dummy file which is know is NULL.NUL in the DATA folder. Do you think it's what I'm looking for? There are many of them but none seems to match with what I'm looking for.ĮDIT : I tried to change the LBA of an enlarged file with TOC Changer. I found some 8bytes numbers starting with 0x80 that could be pointers. So Q4 : Is it doable to edit a PSX application without corrupting it? Where am I the most likely to find pointers in my LOADER.EXE? I searched for them but found nothing, I supposed the format was different. (Oh, yes, I didn't precised there were datas too in the LOADER.EXE, basicly some uncompressed graphics used when you launch the game, AND as it happens, my audio pointers) I then assumed they were MORE pointers in the executable itself to access certain zones of data. I tested this with ePSXe and the ISO WORKED! But when I attached a debugger to the game and tried to search for my pointers list, the one I added wasn't here. ![]() When I did this, my files where truncated (normal since I did this with CDMage). ![]() I tried to add a music I composed in SEQ and VAB in the sound file and added a pointer to the list in LOADER.EXE Pretty logical since the music doesn't depend on the level in which you are. It contains all the pointers needed to access SEQ and VAB datas for the sound. Most of them are in the main data header file, but some of them are located in the loader application used by the PS1 (LOADER.EXE). Q3 : Do I need to know something else to make that work?Īnother thing, I found pretty all pointers that lead to datas in the game files. Q2 : Is it easier/safer to edit the xml myself? Q1 : Would mkisoxml help me to arrange files in my ISO the exact same way they are in the original? When I tried to rebuild an ISO of the game from scratch with mkpsxiso then opened it with CDMage, I noticed all LBA changed (which is normal, I didn't precised the order of the files in my ISO, but I'm not sure how to do it) I then tried to use mkpsxiso, but I'm pretty new to that and everything isn't clear to me. You can use it to replace files in an original ISO, but they can't exceed original size, otherwise your edited file will be truncated. To exact files from the ISO, I use CDMage which works like a charm. My soft can extract raw datas, edit and eventualy recompress them, but the final size is pretty random.Ĭonclusion : I need to find a way to enlarge the ISO size (which seems to be a pain). ![]()
