Ok, it would seem that somehow they have managed to rip GameCube DVD's, Emulate them to some extent on the PC, MOD the GC, and even run homebrew software on the GC, but can you re-burn and run the Commercial Softs on your GC (FOR BACK UP PURPOSES OF COURSE), if so or if not, what kind of media do you burn them or the Homebrew apps to? A Mini DVD disk? I'd like AS MUCH info on this as I can, if you must, PM me so that the thread DOES NOT get locked, I'm very interested, but am having trouble finding many specifics on this whole topic.
Thankx!

Anyways, you can not burn Gamecube games on a mini-DVD. It's all about using the network feature in PSO.

I scanned over the 3 page forum, then figured,"hey why don't I make someone really pissed off and start a new forum that gets right down to the point!?!?"
So here we are.
So here we are.
Yeah, there's not a "whole lot" of information on this yet... not much of a "scene" as of now...
I got my BBA today and should get PSO tomorrow in the mail...
Let the good times roll..

Well, you can burn to 'full size' cd-r ,dvd-r...Then using your pc's cd-dvd drive... stream them over to the cube using Gc Disc Server.

:: GC Disc Server v1.2 beta - ParadoX ::
:: Thanks
Firstly id just like to thank Aftermath and Parasyte of Eurasia for the
original Animal Crossing Loader, this program is built using the protocols
created for that program and includes the exact same gamecube dol file
from the 'Animal_Crossing_Loader_1.2_BETA_GCN-PARADOX' release.
Also thanks to Titanik whose psul tool is used to load the Animal Crossing
Loader v1.2 dol file to the gamecube.
:: So What is this release then?
This release is as the title states, a 'GameCube Disc Server' tool.
It utilises the protocols originally created for the the Animal Crossing
Loader and also uses the gamecube dol file from it. This server tool is not a
standalone release. It actually stores the above mentioned dol file and psul
tool inside it so that it can 'create' a copy of them to use at runtime,
thereby making sure the correct file versions are in the right place
to use this server.
This server tool provides emulated access to a gamecube disc in a couple
of different ways.
From a gamecube image (as the original Animal Crossing Loader tool does)
From a cd/dvd in your computer's cd/dvd drive.
Cds and Dvd can be accessed using either Aspi or Spti.
Spti is only available on windows nt/2k/xp systems and comes built in
as part of the operating system.
Aspi is available as part of the windows 95/98/me systems, but can be
installed onto windows nt/2k/xp systems also.
:: Running a Game
1) Select how you want to emulate disc access
Image File
Disc (Aspi)
Disc (Spti)
2) Select the Drive or Image File you want to run
3) Click on 'Run Iso'
(an attempt to start the server ill be made, then if successful,
the Animal Crossing Loader dol will be sent to the Gamecube)
:: Stopping a Game
1) Press 'Stop Server'
2) You can now quit by clicking the 'X' in the top right corner
:: Burning a Game to Cd or Dvd
To burn a gamecube game to a cd or dvd in order to play it with
this loader, burn the gcm/iso file as follows:
Data Mode 1
2048 bytes per sector
Do NOT burn the gamecube image file onto the disc as a file itself,
burn it direct to disc.
To burn with 'Nero' select 'Burn Image', 'Block Size' of 2048 bytes,
no 'Image Header' or 'Footer'. Dont tick 'Scrambled', 'Swapped'
or 'Raw Data'.
:: What Works
Frequency setting (can be altered while server is running)
this is a value between 0 and 1000
it is the number of packets sent before delaying
Delay setting (can be altered while server is running)
this is a value between 0 and 1000
it is a millisecond value to wait between lots of packets
Echo setting (can be altered while server is running)
this can be turned on or off
turn this on to display the loading process, dropped packets
and cache fills that the server has performed
NOTE: printing this information will slow down loading times.
It is suggested that you use 'echo' to determine the best
delay/frequency/cache settings for your computer setup and
the different games you run, then once you know these values
you can leave echo turned off.
Cache Size setting (this must be set before starting the server)
this can be between 0 and 100
it is a megabyte value where 0 = no cache and 4 = 4meg cache
This is used to cache disc sectors to memory.
Image File (this must be set before starting the server)
this lets you choose an image file on a disk on your computer,
either on a hard drive or cd/dvd. the cd/dvd would have to be
burnt in a standard windows file format and have the image file
present on the disc as a file itself.
Disc Aspi (this must be set before starting the server)
this lets you run a gamecube game from a disc in your computers
cd/dvd drive. this requires that you have an aspi layer installed
on your computer. computers running windows 95/98/me usually come with
an aspi layer pre-installed, although it may need to be updated.
the cd/dvd should be burnt in the following format:
data mode 1
2048 bytes per sector
most burning programs should allow this.
it is also known as 'cooked' format
Disc Spti (this must be set before starting the server)
this lets you run a gamecube game from a disc in your computers
cd/dvd drive. this requires that your computer supports SPTI
(scsi pass through interface). this is only present on computers
running windows nt/2k/xp.
the cd/dvd should be burnt in the following format:
data mode 1
2048 bytes per sector
most burning programs should allow this.
it is also known as 'cooked' format
Run Iso/Stop Server (this starts and stops the server and runs the loader)
this starts the server and sends the animal crossing loader to the gamecube.
it then can be used to stop the server again
Clear (can be used while server is running)
this clears the log
