SEGA LINDBERGH DOCUMENTATION + PRESERVATION PROJECT

lindys.png
​

I've been working on documenting Sega Lindbergh disks and to some extent keychips as well. The aim of this project is to publicly document all the Sega Lindbergh games/disks.
I am aware that there are private versions of this information.... this is a public project for everyone to utilize... BUT... IT NEEDS YOUR HELP!! If you can contribute to this project by helping with missing disk pictures or preserving missing items, then please reach out. Hoping we can crowdsource as many of the missing items as possible, or if you know any missing items and can share those, that will be great.

A massive amount of time and effort has already been put into this project, it's not just a copy paste of all of the available info that's floating around (some of which doesn't seem to be accurate). I have a catalogued folder of everything below that's marked as having disk pictures. Most* of the disks in the table are confirmed to exist, but there may be a few that snuck in there, that do not exist (mainly base versions of games, with no A/B/C revision on the dvd code where it's been assumed there's a base version.). There's more information that can be provided on this table, for now, this is the only info i am trying to put together. See any errors? please post and we can discuss.

You can find the repository of all of this restore media at the following link.

https://archive.org/download/lindbergh-master-iso


HOW CAN YOU HELP?? (the aim is to get all those NO items turned to YES)

INFORMATION:
If you know of a game that exists that's not on the list, please post the information, but i will need a disk photo to verify it's existence. This project is more about being able to verify that something exists, for accuracy. If you can't provide a picture, i will add them to a list at the bottom "unconfirmed"

DISK PICTURES: If you own any of the disks that i'm missing pictures for, and you can take a picture and post it, that would be great. Doesn't have to be anything special, just a pic of both sides to prove it's existence will be very helpful, if you have a pic in your collection of just the top of a disk, then that will also help. The full database of disk pictures will also be made public at a later date, as soon as i can work out the best way to do it. I'm hoping to build something that's searchable and scrollable, but if not i will just post a link with the full picture folder.

KEYCHIP ID's: If you have a game that you know works, and you can provide the keychip code that is printed on the white label on the case, then please post it in the thread.

PRESERVING MISSING ITEMS: If you can assist with any non preserved games, please DO NOT POST ABOUT IT IN THE THREAD.... PM me only. There's basically 2 ways you can assist with this.
1. The simple quick way.(non preferred method)
2. The redump dat method, where you document the disk and the manufacturing codes on the disk to create a dat file for that particular disk. (this is the preferred way so the item can be properly documented, and all the manufacturing codes on the disk can be recorded, takes a few minutes, and then you sumbit the details of the disk to redump).
I am happy to walk anyone through this, just pm me.

BE VERY CLEAR ON THIS --- Neither method will allow you to use these games for anything other than installing the game on original hardware WITH THE ORIGNAL KEYCHIP.... So do not ask about playing on emulators etc, this post has nothing to do with that so don't ask. Preserving items will only make sure they are documented for things like mame in the future if they ever get Lindbergh support going, and to keep original machines running for as long as the terrible Lindbergh PC hardware will allow them. PM me for any questions or info about assisting with preserving. Use your common sense and stay within the forum rules... If you are unsure about anything, just dm me first to ask.
Thankfully most of the stuff that's not yet preserved are just alternate game revisions, so for the sake of keeping your machine running if your lindbergh pc dies, there's at least 1 revision available for reinstall, but you will of course require your original keychip.

SO.... if you own lindy disks, it would be much appreciated if you can go and check them and see if you can help in any way. If nothing else, then this is hopefully a nice table of items here for reference for everybody. Any other random questions, feel free to DM me. I will probably move onto hardware down the track, but for now the project is limited to whats in the table below. I'll add it to a google sheet when i'm happy the data has been reviewed enough that it's as close to accurate/complete as possible, and most likely a website also.

Thanks to everyone that has contributed so far with getting it to this point. (web posts, pictures, various catalogs of information that's out there, old posts, user contributed info).

You can also email any contributions to [email protected]
I'll update the table below if anything new gets found/provided.

HIGH PRIORITY ITEM (if you own this disk and can help, feel free to send a DM)
DVP-0008F - Virtua Fighter 5



KEY:
Yellow text means yellow disk (there are some disks that are All Net P Ras, they are noted, but still yellow)
Red text means red disk (there are different versions, they are noted, EX and All Net P Ras)
Blue text means blue disk
Purple title text is used for Starhorse games. Most of the starhorse disks are white, but on this forum the default skin has a white background so i had to pick another random colour, final destination disks are black. Purple text is used for all Starhorse 2 games.
* preserved using method 1 only
^ obtained should be dat preserved soon
? this next to a keychip means it's assumed that it's correct based on the fact that it's been confirmed for another revision of the same game.

Add link to first post of restore disk repository. If you are looking for restore media for any of your games, see link.
There's restore media for 72 disks there at present, sorted by disk code. Keep in mind, this media is for installing games on your original hardware only and will require the games original security keychip. Very helpful if your game HDD dies and you need to replace/reinstall, those old 40GB HDD's are 20ish years old now....amazing so many are still even working. Hopefully some people get use of this work! Of course any new additions will be added in the future.

Again, a huge thanks to all the contributors who made this possible. You're all amazing!

A few massive finds in this update, didn't think we would ever find HOTD4 and LGJ special disks... such obscure machines, and also harley davidson as well.
This leads up to a point where we pretty much have at least 1 restore disk for all of the main playable games that people might be interested in.

There's still a lot of disks missing, so if you have anything to contribute, please don't hesitate to reach out, but if you have an original machine, this means that there should be at least 1 disk image available to you to get your machine installed again.

Also, if anyone has a keychip or dec keys for House of The Dead 4 SP, or Harley Davidson you want to sell/share, please dm me.

How are you burning the .iso?? I only use my old Windows XP machine with Nero burning rom - I've never had success burning a DVD compatible with Lindbergh outside of that eco system.
 
You can also mount the iso in an IODD. They work great in Lindbergh as a optical drive emulator.


Great job guys on getting the new dvp-0031 ABC image. Finally I can take the masking tape off my sensors!

@notmurray if you are adding a "notes" column, for Sega After Burner Climax:
