Many CD-Rs have Errors in their Last 2 Sectors due to how the discs were "mastered". These dumps are usually not bad, but require extra steps to ensure QC when adding to redump.

This guide is only for CD-R discs which give errors at the end of dumping. If your dump does not have an error with /c2 enabled then you don't need to follow this guide.

Steps

  • Dump your disc to confirm it is getting c2 errors at the end.
  • Redump your disc multiple times WITHOUT the /c2 flag. If your bin files match from two dumps, then your results are good. Note: You may need to dump more than twice to get matching results.
  • Now you have a good disc image ready for adding to Redump.
  • Copy + paste the link to this guide in your submission to the Mod adding your disc will have context.
