Hacking Outrun 2006

Wow I think that almost exactly what happened to me when I tried to swap the tracks by simply copy and pasting the files long ago. Just stop the car into nothingness. Crazy. Well, at least your making progress and figuring out what's needed for a proper stage swap.
Howard_Casto:
Yeah I guess it's something. There are like 12 folder in outrun 2k6, it's only obvious what about half of these folders contain, so it may just be a simple as more files needing swapped.
I finally got a copy of outrun 2. Then I found the ancient program needed to extract it. THEN I found yet another more obscure program that converts the cvm files inside into a iso file.
And I'm stuck again. The xbox files are named differently due to the 8.3 file length limitations. I can deal with that, but they are compressed as gz files. Apparently they are NOT gzip files just like the sz files on the pc version are NOT sz files. Somebody really needs to tell sumo not to use existing file extensions.
I mean I might be able to just rename the files, but I doubt it.
Howard_Casto:
I'm going to have to put this away for now. Troubleshooter needs a new release and mamehooker desperately needs one.
In the mean time, do we have any Linux nuts out there that are familiar with gzip? I looked at the files in outrun2 a little closer and they appear to still be some form of gzip, they just don't have a header. I've heard that this is an issue for servers all the time and I was wondering if someone might have a solution. I can send files to play with if need be. It it's core gzip is just lz compression so it might be possible to manually open these, but I don't know what I'm looking at.

Someone get this man a gzip expert ASAP!!!!!!! :lol
Seriously though if putting the project aside means an imminent Hooker release then I'm all for it. A new version of Hooker is something I know you've been working on releasing for a long time now, and I'm eager to see how well it jives with my ffb wheel with the whole MAME center spring issue and all that. So it's all good. Come back to this later.

Since I'm stopping for a bit, here is my updated cheat engine file.
Tons more variables including the rpm, some menu variables, ect....
