    You shouldn't have any issues with a Toshiba unit. If you need any help with it feel free to ask. I have two units myself (one has bad ports I need to troubleshoot!). Use good DVD media to burn home brews. The Verbatim 97016 worked for me quite nicely.

    You're very welcome, but I must give all the credit to @emceebois(Twitter) for acquiring and dumping the disc. Without his efforts, it would still be out of our reach! Enjoy. -AltRN8(aka Edge Connector)

    So I have looked into this quite a bit, and the issue is in how the wad is loaded into memory and not read from the media. In the doom port, the MPE used for the game execution would also be required to read the CD-ROM. Since it is a quick and dirty port, they basically created a ramdisk to load the WAD and read from there instead of doing the negotiation between game execution and disc reading. If a WAD is below the RAM size, you can load it, but if it is above it, you will have issues. The changes to the code to make it read off of the disc were significant enough that I didn't try taking it on. If someone good at hardware hacking could help us add RAM to a NUON DVD, that could open up a lot of options.

    More homebrew? Funny you should ask! https://archive.org/details/homebrew_202212 Has a rudimentary menu with a slight graphical glitch, but all the games should work. Once locked to CD-R now free to roam the DVD-R world. Enjoy! Shout out to my Toshiba Bros!

    Let me know if you have any issues.

    Sounds like it could need a new laser.

    Purchased a Toshiba SD-2300 with remote. Came perfectly packed and works perfectly. Thanks so much!

    The problem with doom, if I read the notes with it correctly, are that the wad file needs to be read off the disc. The existing code was done for cd. Someone would need to change the cd parts to read from dvd. Shouldn’t be too hard but the current version won’t work.

    Came with an old distribution. Worked in a limited way for the remote, so it does seem to monitor activity.

    Alrighty folks, I'm still working on putting together a VM with all of this configured, but thought I would release this to the folks with an old RedHat environment already setup. I've uploaded the .gnupg files and the bless files to archive.org here: https://archive.org/details/tempest_202205 Just uncompress into your user's home directory and you should be able to sign away! The password you can use to unlock the application signing is: Thou Shalt Be Free:P-A1S2:EDC0 Let me know if you have any questions or issues. “Now I will believe that there are unicorns…” -Sebastian (Act 3, Scene 3)

    For those working on controller adapters this should prove useful. Key for application signing is next up. If anyone has a spare controller they are willing to part with for a reasonable price let me know. Carl maybe I can get to the front of the queue for an adapter? CONTROL.zip

    Glad to hear it! I'll be compiling some examples and trying to make a DVD multi boot disk and will be releasing the info shortly. Guess I'm not a scammer, huh.
