Radiata Stories - game freezes at start of battle

[Soraesteed]

I just started playing Radiata Stories and after the first batch of cutscenes where you're eventually put outside of the town, the game freezes at the start of battle due to a CDVD Read Error. How can I fix this?

Here is the emulog:

"CDVD Read Error" mean damaged image.
Recreate it again with ImgBurn and just to be sure,before closing ImgBurn after you make the image,check in the console log if there are any yellow warnings

[Soraesteed]

Is ImgBurn a separate application? This is the first time I've had a bad image so I'm not that familiar with fixing them

[Topken]

imgburn is a ripping program that is the reccommended app for ripping ps2 games

http://imgburn.com/

[Soraesteed]

Got it. I'll give it a try and see if it works . Thank you!

[Soraesteed]

Alright, so I think I did something wrong. When I recreated it with ImgBurn and tried to boot it up, PCSX2 isn't recognizing it as a disc. Did I miss something?

[jesalvein]

Did you get any error when using imgburn ?
