IвЂ™ve tested the cake puzzle and the bed and spider puzzles, and didnвЂ™t run into any problems. The reason being that during the rip of both V2 discs, there was an error / a sector missing the EDC data at the end.

You will probably encounter warnings when burning the patched images to CD-R. The German V1.04 with checksum FFA60727 (Redump) becomes V2.01 with checksum CF718432 (Redump). The EU (English) V1.13 with checksum 0BE4F5A6 (TOSEC) becomes V2.03 with checksum A03265F7 (not dumped).The German V1.04 with checksum 72D1B393 (TOSEC) becomes V2.01 with checksum 42063086 (not dumped).The patches can be applied with Delta Patcher ( source code). It turned out that the cdi_t7g file differs to the one that IвЂ™ve extracted from my German V2.01 image, confirming what has been figured out above.ДЇor testing purposes, here are patches to raise some TOSEC and Redump rips to V2. Shortly after, I received an image of an EU V2.03 disc for testing from Bigm1977. Also, the order of the modules is reversed in V2 of the file. This means that the files are not interchangeable between the different language versions. a compressed b/w image with a localized вЂdirty discвЂ™ message. He figured out that the file cdi_t7g actually contains two CD-i program modules: cdi_t7g and cdi_data. One year ago, I was in contact with CD-i Fan.

When you see the cursor, then the bug was avoided successfully: The 7th Guest Cake Puzzle Update () It wonвЂ™t fit until you move the plastic holder out of the way вЂ“ watch the power and CD cables! You could remove the metal case of the DVC and secure it into the plastic holder as well. If you have a CD-i player with pre-installed DVC / without DVC maintenance door, then it most likely has an IMPEG DVC and is incompatible with V1 of The 7th Guest.Д«efore trying to hunt down V2 of the game in the language of your choice, you should consider to replace the DVC with an older VMPEG revision. No differences, except the 1995 version has the EEPROM in a socket. Top row: VMPEG cartridges вЂ“ 22ER9956/20 and 22ER9956/37, no differences.Д«ottom row: 22ER9956/40 IMPEG cartridges вЂ“ November 1995, October 1997 and the version without case for newer players. Revisions /40 onwards contain a 6.x ROM and an IMPEG chipset (integrated audio/video in one IC). Now, what causes the bug? Here are some 22ER9956 DVCs: 22ER9956 DVCДЄll revisions 22ER9956/20 to 22ER9956/39 contain a 5.x ROM and a VMPEG chipset. I havenвЂ™t found a way to inject single files into CD-i disc images yet, and a hex editor wonвЂ™t help because the size differs. Probably you can fix other language versions with this file too.

Checksums of the file cdi_t7g: V1 8715F32A (German and English EU versions) and V2 7B263600.ДЇor a quick fix, you can download this archive which contains XDelta 3 patches V1 to V2 (German disc 1 and cdi_t7g). The CRC32 of V1 is 72D1B393 a known rip, also used for the CHD in MAME/MESS.

I ripped the discs with CDRWIN and compared them to the TOSEC rip. With IsoBuster we can view the content of the disc and note that one file was changed in V2: cdi_t7g. On a closer look at the inner ring of disc 1, you can see the version numbers (V104 and V203): V1.04 and V2.03 Some say that the jewel case is not a clear indicator of the version though. Everything is identical except disc 1 and the VCD jewel case. The bug in the V1 game is triggered by the IMPEG 6.x digital video cartridges. It was widely believed that the bug only appears on the newer players and that the only solution was to buy V2 of the game (e.g. Unfortunately, there is an annoying bug that crashes the game when trying to solve the cake puzzle: The 7th Guest Cake Puzzle Bug

The 7th Guest is a great game for Philips CD-i.
