At first, I had said that I would fix bugs related to the gdi files which contain some tabulation caracters. Little by little, I saw that many had to be fixed up, especially in the code in charge of reading the path table of an iso file. Since I have a lot to do for my other project (GDLAN Loader), I have decided to fix as many bugs as I can in this release so that the next version can focus entirely on the application core improvement.<\/p>\n<p><u>GDI Explorer changelog:<\/u><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Added: Now support reading compressed GDI archives (ZIP) but it can still not extract data from them.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed: Cannot parse GDI file with tabulation chars.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed: Unable to extract directories when their relative name is like another ones in an highest path.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed: The 2 seconds pause at the end of each CD-DA tracks is not well removed.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed: An extracted directory datetime do not match with iso datetime.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed: File association does not support long filenames.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed: The UI does not clean some fields when a loading error occures.<\/li>\n<li>Fixed: The right-click menu option &#8220;Convert all GDDA&#8221; appears even if there is no GDDA track.<\/li>\n<li>Cleanup: UI&#8217;s code and debugging information<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>At this point, I can continue my work on an GDRom-drive debugging tool. This tool simply hooks the Dreamcast syscalls, sends the syscall information over the LAN interface. In doing so, on the PC side, a logger keeps the trace of all syscalls sent to the GDRom drive while playing a game. I want to release a first version which enables you to send your own logs in a database. That way, it would be easier to emulate the GDRom drive (and to know which games may raise issues).<\/p>\n<p>Seeya&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>Download: <a href=\"http:\/\/www.mediafire.com\/file\/03d19d6ibtfqnkc\/jc-gdiexplorer-v1.4b.zip\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">GDI Explorer v1.4b (Fixed)<\/a> (Fix GDI file parsing issue)<\/p>\n<p>Update: no more dead link!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>So far, I have been working on a newer version of GDI Explorer.
