Support for RAW disc images as BIN/CUE pair?

Post by gingerbeardman »

I just tested a RAW format (2352 bytes per block) disc image as BIN/CUE pair, set as cdrom in BasiliskII prefs, but it showed up as an audio disc in System 7.

So I did some googling and found this old chat from 2010 about adding support for this type of CD disc image.

https://sourceforge.net/p/basilisk/mail ... gmail.com/

I am wondering if this made it into BasiliskII?

I'm guessing not but I can't rule out my BIN/CUE might be dodgy.

Thanks

The one time I needed this, it worked with the pair as two separate files together in one folder and only the bin file added as disk.

I've tried that, and vice versa. That may work for standard BIN/CUE but this isn't about that type of BIN/CUE, but rather RAW (2352 byte) BIN/CUE.

So, just to restate my question: Did the code in the referenced thread make it into BasiliskII?
