Oddworld / PSX: Unknown CUE sheet directive and maximum allowed size [message #7023] Mon, 18 March 2024 17:06 Go to next message

Hello,

I'm trying to play Oddworld: Abe's Oddysee with the psx module. My PC runs Linux Mint 21 with 16 GB RAM and lots of disk space.

I used cdrdao to copy my Oddworld disc to bin+cue files.

The bin file is 702 MB, and mednafen fails with this error:

$ mednafen -force_module psx Oddworld_Abes_Oddysee.bin
Starting Mednafen 1.29.0
 Build information:
   Compiled with gcc 11.2.0
   Compiled against zlib 1.2.11, running with zlib 1.2.11(flags=0x000000a9)

Error loading "Oddworld_Abes_Oddysee.bin": maximum allowed size of 67108864 bytes exceeded.  If you are trying to load a CD image, load it via CUE/CCD/TOC/M3U instead of BIN/ISO/IMG.


So I try that instead:

$ mednafen -force_module psx Oddworld_Abes_Oddysee.cue
...
Error opening CD: Unknown CUE sheet directive "CD_ROM_XA".


I removed that line, but that just changes the error message; apparently every line in my cue file is an error...? Here's the full cue file:

CD_ROM_XA


// Track 1
TRACK MODE2_RAW
NO COPY
DATAFILE "Oddworld_Abes_Oddysee.bin" 66:19:56 // length in bytes: 702027312


How can I make this work?

Thanks for any advice.

(PS - this *does* work in PCSXR, but the audio is a little glitchy, so I'm hoping to get it working better in a different emulator.)

More system details:

I just discovered DuckStation, and my Oddworld file plays perfectly there, so I will use that instead. Thanks anyway!

That's not a CUE file, it's a cdrdao TOC file with the wrong file extension.
