CDemu mentions (4)

  • There are now more Linux gamers than Windows 7 gamers
    Have a look at https://cdemu.sourceforge.io/. Comes with a virtual drive kernel module, an image parser library supporting most formats (including old MDX, newer rips won't work because of encrypted file headers, so stay away from Daemon Tools images), and a configuration GUI sitting in the system tray.

  • I am trying to run an old CD-based game from 2001 using Wine.
    Also mounting the resulting image won't work without another specific program that emulates that copy protection. CDEmu might work but there's no guarantee. Source: about 1 year ago
  • How do I install CDEMU?
    I'm quite new to this. https://cdemu.sourceforge.io/. Source: about 1 year ago
  • How to get a backup of an old game CD with copy protection?
    I used Daemon Tools (the Windows software) to rip my game disks to MDS/MDF images. As far as I remember, the free “light”/adware version is sufficient. On Linux, you can mount the resulting images via cdemu. Source: over 1 year ago
