CloneCD is intended for 1:1 backups, so it would. However, I don't know if you need a modchip or not for the Dreamcast.Can Clonecd backup Dreamcast games?? I know that sega uses a *.cdi file extension can clonecd recreate the same file extension??
Can Clonecd backup Dreamcast games??
You are right, CloneCD cannot copy original (retail) Dreamcast games, because the DC uses a high density CD-ROM format developed by Yamaha:My, my, you have certainly have done your homework on this...
Okay, I'm gonna try to say this as politely as possible, (I have read the forum rules) please do not be offended...since I don't wanna make a moderator look (I won't say the word), I'm gonna give you a 2 easy options to choose...whichever you choose is the right decision, lets begin: Option #1: Prove me wrong. Option #2: Don't prove me wrong.
Here is the outcomes: if you do not reply the answer is: don't prove me wrong. If you lock the thread answer is: don't prove me wrong.
remember: whichever decision you make is always the right decision.

The DC can boot from normal CDs as well, so it *is* possible to create backups, if the DC drive is used to create the image.
It is, in fact, odd_function, quite possible to do with Clonecd--if you know what you're doing.

The "Utopia Boot cd" is used (for non-selfboot games),
Using a basic CD-ROM drive...the answer is no. You will need more then that.
You need a serial cable or a broadband adapter. And then, in some cases, you need to remove material or in some cases downsample the audio, or worse, the video, in order to fit the game onto a cd-r.

I don't quite understand what your trying to tell me...
Are you suggesting to download a DC image of the internet?
If that's that case, what program opens such images?

I don't know what else my friend did at that point,
but I do know that some DC games couldn't fit onto a cd-r due to the amount of audio and video. So he had to make the audio worse (take up less space).
ok...what software do I use to remove the content from the DC game so, it can fit on a 700 mb recordable disc? 8)
