DC Bios Logo

Post by Treamcaster »

Is it possible to change, without a katana dev kit, the DC bios swirl, to the unreleased one, we all seen on SegaKatana website?

Thanks

Not unless you want to write your own bios.

Holly cow! I've seen today a website of a guy who did that... seems to be hard.
I also seen a video on youtube about an app. called bios flasher or something that makes the DC logo black... Any ideias of where I can download it?

The Region Changer has the ability to turn the DC logo black by setting the region portion of the flash to a different region. There's Red J, Red U, Blue E, Black J, Black U, and Black E. When the region setting is invalid the DC uses a black swirl, but it just so happens that three of those possible invalid settings do boot J, U, or E. Any other invalid setting will lock you out from booting discs on your DC.
It's thinking...

Ah, I thought there might be another navi attempt out there. Oh well.
