I've been looking to decrypt the MMLC2 for a few reasons. First is I've been hooked on Mega Man 8 after playing it recently and would like to see if I could rip the last 2 robot masters that aren't included yet (that being Aqua man & Sword man) and maybe a few other things that are currently missing.
I say the MMLC2 specifically because I also want to see if I can rip the Legacy Collection borders for it. That, and trying to rip the sprites/sounds from the PS1 rom's PAC files haven't been too lucky. While researching, I did come across a thread that highlighted all the steps to extract the disc file, but despite following the steps to a tee, the disc is still protected which leads me to believe something was added that renders that method useless.

The silver lining is might have some luck using TiledGGD on the PS1 rom I have, but it still sucks that I can't get the MMLC2 extracted on my computer.
If anyone knows of any alternatives that can extract the MMLC2 disc (or possibly a way to reliably open MM8's PAC files), all suggestions are welcome...
