Hello
I have some questions here.
What type of CDs can it be burned and bootable with the CD32?
I have white CD-R printable and someone says me on another forum that it needs grey ones colour metallic.
Anyone knows with what is the best to burn and play my CD32 games?
Thanks in advance.

There is something wrong with your browser! I just deleted about 4 duplicate posts :oops:

@Ivanhoe: cheap noname CD-R should work fine.
-
And it took a couple of days of hair-pulling to work out that RWs *won't* work.

Depends what you are burning also. If you are making your own cds rather than burning isos, you will need a few files off the Amiga Developer CD

TDK cd's work very fine by me.
Btw. try to burn it as slow as possible.

Cheap no-name cd's works fine for me :-)

I use always TDK or Verbatim CD-R to burn ISO games for my CD32 and never had problem. I don't know about the speed but I burn usually 8x speed and I never had problem with that. CD32 boots normally.

At least you have hair to pull :)
So is this true in general or only for some writers?

Sorry it wasn't my browser (actually Ibrowse 2.4) it was the connection that failed or was occupied by other member of my family.
Sorry for the inconveniences and the mistake. :shocked: :eek:

I have a TDK but RW. :boohoo:
2x speed on MakeCD would be nice? :idea:

I have white Verbatims with practically only white surface.
Can I use it to burn and boot my CD32 games?
Thanks really for all your help. :-D

Any brand of CD-R works OK in CD32, just observe:
- Write it with an .ISO image;
- Don't use CD-RW (rewritable);
- Use the lowest speed to burn it. If your burner program accept 2x, use it!
- Avoid those very cheap, brand-less CDs made in Taiwan, China or related ("industrial media").
-
- Write it with an .ISO image;
Correct
- Don't use CD-RW (rewritable);
Correct again. :-D
Back in 1993 I don't think that CD-RWs do exist, so CD32 can't read them.
- Use the lowest speed to burn it. If your burner program accept 2x, use it!
As I said, I burned around 30 ISO games from BTTR site in 8x speed and they worked fine at all. :-o
- Avoid those very cheap, brand-less CDs made in Taiwan, China or related ("industrial media").
This is the FIRST rule. Never use no-name media. These days even brand media (TDK, Verbatim) are very cheap, so why to risk it?

I am trying now to make a multi-game CD32 CD with AGS (Arcade Game Selector).
I need 320x128 IFF images for the games of AGS.
:rtfm:
Where can I find it?
Is there any site of AGS or images specially created for AGS?
I tried to convert with Personal Paint and Perfect Paint but I don't see the option. :-?

Hey can anyone make me a CD32 .iso of:
Sensible world of Soccer 96/97 please.
My 1200 is a bit poorly and the CD32 is nice and simple....
Or can you point me in the right direction on how to do it??
Cheers
