I have Gunslinger stratos 3 HDD too.

But I could not extract game data.

 

Please tell me how to unlock data?

[Nostradadu]

Disregard everything I said earlier, I managed to figure it out.

That said I have an issue I don't know how to fix at the moment: I'm getting a movie error with Gaia Attack 4 despite the fact it's running in compatibility mode and that I installed the codec package that was given alongside the game. Am I supposed to install it in some specific place, or do I just have shitty luck? Anyone care to help?

 

Edit: nevermind, got it. If you have the same issue, download and install Media Player Codec Pack from the official website.

Run diskmgmt.msc from the Run… command in Windows menu, then post a screenshot of the disk info. It's a partition issue, but I'm not entirely sure of the cause or how to gain back access to the data on it so let's start with that and we'll see how to proceed next. Hopefully, there's more than one partition and the one that contains Gunslinger Stratos is just hidden, in which case it's gonna be easy to display it.

No problem, thank you for translating it. I believe Windows either cannot read the partition format, or it got corrupted somehow. Do you have access to a Linux PC? Linux might be able to recover it. As it stands, with Windows, your only possibility is to create a new partition using the unallocated space but that would mean losing all the data on the disk.

[satoyuyu]

Thank you for fast reply.

In fact, I tried launch Linux(Ubuntu) and tried to load the hdd (Gparted application)

But I can not access the hdd (the error message is I/O error and can't read)

 

I have two hdd and I connected other hdd.

But the same error showed.

And I changed sata cable, but error is same.

 

Is there hdd protection?

Could be but I'm not entirely sure why the partition would not even show up... I believe the data would still show up, even if encrypted. I've got to admit this is a bit out of my expertise but it would be the first time I hear of such a technique.

Just to be sure and if it's not too personal to ask, where did you get these disks from? Because it's also possible that the previous owner, or the devs themselves, formated the disks and broke the partitions to make sure no one would pirate their game.

hello,

 

before any manipulation, save your disk with HDDRawCopy !!!

 

Have you TTX3 hardware? The game work ?

This hdd bought auction site.

I searched what is similar problem, but I can not similar problem.

Just had my father over phone (he was an IT when he was younger), turns out it is entirely possible to have data not show up due to having the incorrect system. Can't help you further then, sorry.

My pleasure. Still, I still find it a little odd you get nothing upon inspecting... I checked online and as line said, people in the business of arcades (and dumpers, obviously) use HDDRawCopy to make backups of their games so I'm starting to believe the disk has been formatted, plain and simple.

I think so too, I wonder why I can not detect the hdd by HDDRawCopy.

By the way, I tried HDAT2 tool, and find that the hdd is protected.

 

It may be necessary to access service area of hdd

You could hotswap to grab vdimg_ec.img from the last partition / volume.

Let the game to boot, then disconnect the SATA thin data wire (thin red wire to the HDD) from your TX 3 unit, and, at last, rely a SATA data wire from your computer to the HDD instead.

I do not have TX3 unit, so I tried to access the hdd using my PC.

 

Is it need to get TX3 unit(motherboard) ?

If I need to TX3, I will search TX3 motherboard.

If you don't own a TX 3 unit and if it's a Western Digital drive, you can remove the password with WD Marvel demo version, select your drive, go to "Other" menu and "Clear password".

If it's a Toshiba or Hitachi drive, you can use SeDiv in full version to copy or unlock your drive.

I can get the type x3 and extract the data of gunslinger stratos 3!

Thanks a lot!

But I can not control this game because this game need the gun type controller and if not connect the contoller,

Do you know the tool converting the gun controller input to keyboard input?

By the way, the game engine of GS3 is different to the engine of MD.

So, I'm worried being able to use MD's io to GS3.

Do you have the Leap Motion?

If you got it, please try to control GS3.

I do not have this, so I can not use leap motion and can not examine being able to use this for GS3.

Hi, thank you for reply.

But unfortunately I have not other upload site, because this file is too big.

 

Please try some times

And if you can not download, please try to make new mega account and copy this file to your new account.

[cyrille2hk]

@satoyuyuOne suggestion, free account are limited to 15 Gbytes so if you split the zip file would be great.

Thanks

Will try it, I doubt it will work

The files are specifically written for Magicians Dead

 

Anyone else tried to get it to work, with other files ?

 

I'll try in a few hours when my download is done.

 

Meanwhile somebody else got it working, only coin-up button works for the moment
