=== Running 3DO Demos and Prototypes on macOS and RetroArch ===
''''' This guide exists because macOS is very picky with its files. And because 3DO prototypes/games/demos were not signed, therefore they are unable to run. This is why most games haven't been documented as of now. This guide applies to most prototypes and demos in the 3DO game space.'''''

Unlike most people would think, the standard, original retail BIOS is actually stricter than a patched BIOS. It will reject any unsigned prototypes/demos before even running the game, despite the region the BIOS or game is from being correct.

The standard retail BIOS, <code>panafz10.bin</code>, or any 3DO BIOS for that matter, needs to be patched in order for most prototype games/demos to boot. You must use an RSA-patched / decrypted BIOS file. It needs to be non-region-locked, and it needs to not check for signatures.

If you're on macOS (like [[Special:Contributions/Loukas|me]]) you're going to most likely need to <code>xattr</code> the .bin and .cue files for the game along with the BIOS file using <code>xattr -cr "/path/to/folder"</code> in order to bypass quarantine flags. You may also need to <code>xattr</code> ''The 3DO Company - 3DO (Opera)'' core on macOS after installing it. Then, it is the same as running any 3DO game on RetroArch. <code>xattr -cr "/path/to/folder"</code> de-quarantines the whole folder of all quarantines. Be careful on what you use it for. You never know what code might be executed on your machine. Alternatively, you can use <code>xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine "/path/to/file"</code> for each file in particular. [[User:Loukas|Loukas]] ([[User talk:Loukas|talk]]) 01:41, June 11, 2026 (UTC)

===Running 3DO demos/prototypes on Asahi Linux via RetroArch===
'''''This guide exists because SOMEONE had to document Asahi Linux. And since there is so little information on Asahi and very few people actually have it installed, I decided to be the test subject.'''''

Step 1. Install RetroArch via FlatPak

Step 2. Download the 3DO Core MANUALLY. if you download from the integrated download menu, RetroArch stops working

Download cores from https://github.com/christianhaitian/retroarch-cores/tree/master/aarch64/opera_libretro.so.zip (This is the only repository I found that works with Asahi Linux's ARM architecture.)

Step 3. Paste yout core into <code>~/.var/app/org.libretro.RetroArch/config/retroarch/cores/</code>

Step 4.Put your RSA patched 3DO BIOS in <code>~/.var/app/org.libretro.RetroArch/config/retroarch/system/</code> ''which in my case is a patched''' <code>panafz10.bin</code>''' BIOS''

Step 5. Run the <code>.cue</code> file (or whatever file format you have for your 3DO prototype)

Step 6. Have fun!

A prototype of Crash Bandicoot for the Sony PlayStation.
==Notes==
{{Tcrf link| Proto:Crash Bandicoot/May 11th, 1996 build}}
This build originates from three different sources - a SCEA disc, a SCEE disc, and a bootleg copy with SCEI license. While all of them are identical content-wise, neither of them are perfect matches.
*An NTSC-U build, that seems to match the demo used at E3 1996.
*The game cannot be saved onto memory card.
*In the map screen, hold down '''L1 + L2 + R2 + Left''' and press '''R1''' to unlock all levels and receive all collectibles.
**However, this build is restricted to the first two islands.

Episode 5 of the Hidden Palace podcast is now available!

We talked about prerelease demo discs in [[Podcasts/Episode 2 - Greatest Hits And Demo Discs|episode 2]], and we’re back at it again.
Since then, Bo has been trawling through the PlayStation library in an effort to identify demos that have hidden secrets.

Some of the demos discussed in the episode include:
* '''Test Drive 5''': The demos of this PlayStation racing game from Accolade include a hidden menu labeled “Oh Arse” that lets you adjust how cars are rendered in game. This got cut from the final builds, but you can access it in one demo with [https://32bits.substack.com/p/extending-the-demo-test-drive-5-playstation a patch].
* '''Vs''': The demo for this PlayStation fighting game apologizes for not being able to include the “exciting alternative music” in the final game. [https://32bits.substack.com/p/extending-the-demo-vs-playstation Bypassing the restrictions] allows you to see a song on the sound test screen that didn’t make the retail release - not exciting enough?
* '''Micro Maniacs Racing''': This PlayStation game from Codemasters doesn’t normally allow you to access its Options menu. But with a [https://32bits.substack.com/p/under-the-microscope-micro-maniacs patch], you can see that the developers seem to have cut a feature that would let you race on courses from Micro Machines V3, another game from the same studio.
* '''Tales of Destiny''': This PlayStation RPG, has a “debug room” in its demo builds, that allows you to warp anywhere and explore beyond the usual limits. There are [https://32bits.substack.com/p/extending-the-demos-tales-of-destiny patches] that make it accessible.

Here are the lists of PlayStation demo discs:
* '''North America''': [https://game-rave.com/?page_id=126 Game-Rave.com]
* '''PAL regions''': [https://crimson-ceremony.net/demopals/index.php demo pals]
* '''Japan''': [https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1vFnHdaCEeIeYrE4Jm15dL_Ru69Srj5I7y4stq_FrBXs/edit?gid=0#gid=0 Google Docs]
