Game Freezing After Reimporting Files

Post by Omarios »

Hello, so I have been trying the IMP script with the game Crash N Burn for the PS2 (I'm using PCSX2). The script works flawlessly and extracts/reimports everything perfectly, in which afterwards I rebuild the ISO with UltraISO or a similar program. The big problem I'm having currently is that the game freezes when loading up, the initial cutscenes are played, but afterwards it just hangs on the loading screen forever. :(

I've been scouring the forum and I saw that people have fixed this by adjusting the size value of the files in the folder with a hex editor, but I have been trying to figure out how to do that for some time now to no luck, can someone enlighten me on this matter?

I will provide both original and edited archive files for anyone who wants to have a look

reimport2.bat can't work with XML files because the Offset/CompressedSize/FullSize can't be fixed to the new values.
Instead the bin should work but, as always, it depends by the game and the format that may refuse these changes for tons of reasons.
