Emulator Issues #12474
closedPR#9577 prevents extracted game folders that are too big from booting
0%
Description
Game Name?
DJ Hero 2 (as an example, affects all games)
Game ID? (right click the game in the game list, Properties, Info tab)
SWBE52
MD5 Hash? (right click the game in the game list, Properties, Verify tab, Verify Integrity button)
N/A (extracted game folder)
What's the problem? Describe what went wrong.
DJ Hero custom songs community uses Dolphin to play custom songs in DJ Hero 2 (DJH2). We accomplished this by extracting the DJH2 disc and adding new songs to the extracted game folder.
However, since PR#9577 / 5.0-13863, Dolphin now enforces Nintendo's Error #001 on extracted game folders that are too large (>4.37GB?). So players with too many custom songs in their game folder won't be able to boot DJH2.
I understand emulating Error #001 is accurate behavior - I've seen Error #001 on console trying to boot modded DJH2 with too many customs. However, I'd still appreciate consideration of this issue, at least for extracted folders.
What steps will reproduce the problem?
Extract any ISO (right-click game, Properties, Filesystem tab, right-click Disc, Extract Entire Disc, to a dedicated folder)
Boot the game (open DATA/sys/main.dol). Game should boot fine.
Make the extracted game folder too big (>4.37GB?) by placing large files inside DATA/files
Boot the game again. Game encounters Error #001.

If the issue isn't present in the latest stable version, which is the first broken version? (You can find the first broken version by bisecting. Windows users can use the tool https://forums.dolphin-emu.org/Thread-green-notice-development-thread-unofficial-dolphin-bisection-tool-for-finding-broken-builds and anyone who is building Dolphin on their own can use git bisect.)

Does setting bytes 0x30-0x34 in sys/bi2.bin to 0x7ED40000 make the error go away?

Error #001 makes the error go away.

Setting bytes 0x30-0x34 in sys/bi2.bin makes the error go away, the game boots.
