Shenmue Dojo

Hi Guys,

Here is another modded iso coming to you from Wude and myself.

This modded iso is for EMU ONLY as it is 1 gigabyte. Unless you can burn GD-Roms that is


Confirmed working in Reicast and NullDC

What it includes:



Modded Area Codes:


Video Beta Yamanose:


For all What's Shenmue Maps (Credited to Shengoro86):

Scene has to be set to 80 (this is directly copied from the What's Shenmue Disc)
Note: The tutorial areas are included (the areas where the high res head models explain stuff in the game), however, the head models are not there so you can see the map itself!

What's Shenmue Area Codes (Thanks IlDucci):


I'm not sure where each area goes yet, please update me if you know!
I believe the HG** areas are the tutorial talking heads areas!

This has been compiled to CDI format so it is bootable + Selfboot code added (Credited to Shengoro86)

Code: Select all

What is missing:
Wude's updated Wish Road Hack


Where I want to go from here:
I REALLY want to just make an Ultimate Shenmue 1 CDI.

For the next release I want to include:
All What's Shenmue maps with hacked ECAM hex for free roam to bypass the in game area restrictions.
Wude's Updated Wish Road hack with frozen timer
My Bike Mod. Yes, it is actually in a finished alpha state.


Thanks to all involved with releasing the beta!

Thanks to all who invented these methods to get these kind of mods working!

wow wow this is just gorgeous
thx a million times

Please keep up your good work guys. This is an amazing project and I can see an 'ultimate version of shenmue' playable on the actual hardware very soon with the recently released/ upcoming gdemu.

This is great, thanks to all for the work here!!

So awesome! So many thank yous to Wude, Shengoro86 and whoever else is making these amazing things possible!

Btw, which method is the alpha Bike Mod. Only accessible on Wish road, or all areas?

Sorry but I'm not ready to discuss the bike mod in detail at this time.

Wow thanks for this.

After playing it for a while I absolutley prefer the beta version over the final, specially Sakuragaoka, the trees and vegetation... , it looks more organic in the beta opposed to how blocky looks in the final game.

Not sure why they changed it.

I think the major reason to remove details (like trees...) between the beta and final is (sadly) optimization.

The dedication of people around here that continue to find new things like this is really incredible/inspiring. Keep it up guys!

By the way, this is in no way anything new. These maps have been known about for a long time. It was just hard for most people to enjoy. These mods can be confusing and there was no central location for a disc image that was premodded.

Yeah. They are not new. Shengoro make a mod to give the posibility to play for all fans.

There is another version of this mod that is playable on actual hardware. I took out the whats shenmue maps to make the cdi size small enough for 80 min cdrs. This is now available for everyone to enjoy!

Its in the shenmue community projects section.

Finally I was able to test in on real hardware ( thanks to Wude, Shengoro86) and I don't see any heavy performance issues, it performs as, better, than Dobuita (retail) and it looks way better than the final version, yes it is plenty of bugs, I guess some changes were made to improve gameplay, some locations are harder to acces, walk, in the beta, but It still don't explain why they cut the graphics

Anyway I'm so happy to see this running on actual hardware

Great stuff
