Title: Ripping problems
Post by: Terrorantula on May 11, 2010, 12:39:48 am
I recently picked up an ECM of Angelique.: Tenkuu no Requiem, opened it to receive a BIN and a Cue file, the tried to use PSicture to rip images. I was unable ot rip the BIN, nor did converting to an ISO and burning it -via my default burning program, maybe  not the best choice--to a disc appear to have any appreciable results. Any suggestions?
-edit- now i burned it successfully using BurnAtOnce, but  psicture still won't rip stuff.. maybe the format's weird..

Maybe this might help you identify the image files that you want:
http://www.zophar.net/utilities/psxutil/wotizpsx.html

Or maybe load the bin/cue in CDMage and look through the game's contents for those files:
http://cdmage.orconhosting.net.nz/downlnks.html

Then see if you can extract those image files with CDMage.

If you find and extract them, see if there's a utility on this page that will display those images:
http://www.zophar.net/utilities/psxutil.html

If not, then maybe there's something on that page that can rip them for you.

One last thing: You did use this to convert the ECM to BIN/CUE, didn't you?

Yes I did. I'll try those resources you suggested-up until now I've only used PSicture.Psound to rip things off physical discs.

*RANDOM APPEARANCE*

Hello, I have some experience with the ripping and stuff for the ePSXe PSX Emulator.

Its a little complicated, but if you found this one program called Vram or whatever it be called. (I think that's what it is called, I'm not 100% sure.) Anyway, you make a savestate (or seperate if you are relying on that one save state while playing.) Then you go to your save state folder, rename the file. I believe it'll be called... like (SLPS_017.70.000) You change the 000 to gz, and it will become a zip file. You then extract it, and then open up Vram. Drag the file into there, then you can begin the ripping process.

To work Vram is an entirely different story, but it involves using the print screen button, so fool around with it a little to figure it out. I'm sure you can do it. Hope this helps a bit. K, thanks bye.
