Check their console section -> Dreamcast

 

That will tell you how to make your ISOs bootable

 

BTW, check the Chankast Compatiblities list for the games. Add some input if they haven't worked with any version. Saves you some time trying.

Its a pain in the ass to make some games bootable but that Megagames guide is good. Also the games need to have VGA compatibility otherwise they won't work either. Atleast that's what I hear.

I've tried quite a few methods to convert games to selfboot. none of them will work in chankast. I get infinite IO errors. If anyone can convert a game to selfboot and get it to work in chankast, please post which tool set you used to do it.

ah ha! finally figured out why my computer couldn't make a selfboot. all the errors were caused by a bad aspi driver. gotta use the nero version, not the adaptec version!

well the program i used did miracles for me. it was called dc selfbooter kit.its a exe it installs it self.i think i found it in megagames

Are you using something like DAEMON Tools and mounting the image to a virtual drive? Or does that require a bootable CD image too?

Well it doesn't matter if its bootable to mount the game with Daemon tools. It matters if its bootable if you want to use in Chankast.

I'm using the nero aspi as Sultan said.

but no matter what selfboot program I use, I have IO errors with the image

What can I do ?
