Hello all,
I have shenmue II for dreamcast UK edition. Just recently I was playing the game and while on the third disc while waiting for a loading screen to the next area the screen started blinking saying on the top right "DATA READ ERROR-30 MPK00.PKF". Happened to me 3 times already. The first two happened before I saved thus losing all the progress of that day. Has anyone ever experienced this problem?
I use the UK edition and use a boot disc to play it.
I have the PAL-version, and no such error ever occured. Must be a defective disc or the boot disc.
I have no idea whats the matter with it, all the cds look fine. Im slowly getting through the game but at every load screen I hold my breath and cross my fingers.
Maybe you should try another boot disc...there are the Utopia boot discs that can be downloaded everywhere, but others may be better....
Use the DC-X one. Fuck Utopia...every one back in the day said it was awesome, sure, for homebrew, but not for legit games. But I had a bitch of a time trying to play a few imports, like Dynamite Deka 2 and Virtua Fighter 3TB. Now that I have US versions, it's moot.
DC-X can easily be found in ISO form online, plus it helps some non-VGA games work with the VGA box. I paid $20 for the damned thing back in 2001 and it was worth it then.
